Arabic text

الحسن بن علوان عن عمرو بن خالد عن زيد بن علي عن آبائه عن علي عليهم السلام قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله: ان ناركم هذه لجزء من سبعين جزءا من نار جهنم ولقد أطفئت سبعين مرة بالماء ثم التهبت ولولا ذلك لما استطاع آدمي أن يطيقها (يطفأها خ ل) إذا التهبت وانه ليؤتى بها يوم القيامة حتى توضع على النار فتصرخ صرخة (ما) لا يبقى ملك مقرب ولا نبي مرسل إلا جثا على ركبتيه (لركبتيه) فزعا من صرختها.

Translation

8.Al-Ḥasan ibn ʿUlwān narrated from ʿAmr ibn Khālid, from Zayd ibn ʿAlī, from his fathers, from ʿAlī (a) who said, “The Messenger of Allah (ṣ) said, ‘Verily this fire of yours is but one-seventieth of the fire of Hell [in intensity]. It has been extinguished seventy times with water and then rekindled. Were that not so, the human being would not have been able to bear it [or extinguish it] once it is ignited. On the Day of Resurrection, it will be brought and placed in the Fire [of Hell], so it will scream so loudly that there will remain no close angel, nor any sent Prophet, but that he will go down on his knees out of dread from its scream.’”
