Is the fire of Hell allegorical?

[nsws1988]

Good point. I'm kind of leaning towards the allegory view. When I think about it, it just seems right to me. I think that what Hell really is is perhaps a distance from God or something similar. But, no matter what it is it's a bad place to be.

Recently I've been thinking that Hell is a feeling/ emotion but in the Quran God says that everyone will see Hell so it is definitely a place and a very bad one too.

God bless

Good post but simply not the truth. They say its allegorical because it is very harsh.

And the truth is?

Respectfully.

You always have the wisest responses, sister. )
I think HellFire is UnImaginable for us for now. We really have to wait and see.

Peace.

How do you know? Have you been there?

Peace,

Do you have any evidence its not literal??? The description is so detailed that the allegory is meaningless.

You were adressing my post. If you didnt want to do that then you shouldnt have adressed it. I never wrote that it is all allegorical.

No one on this thread said so. You respond to non existant posts and ignore questions posed to you.

Whats the meaning of mutashabih?

[Rami]

Whats the meaning of mutashabih?

In my very humble knowledge, it is the verses with multiple/hidden meanings or of which the exact nature can't be decided.

All of God's knowledge in the Quran about the unseen, is considered mutashabih.

For someone from the poles, "hell" is not that painful.
But again saying it's allegorical does not necessarily mean it is less painful. Just as saying the description of paradise is allegorical does not mean it's less amusing paradise maybe far more beautiful and hell far more painful, but we cannot imagine them except through descriptions of things we know. Some people commit suicide by burning themselves surely they find fire less painful than the "hell" they are living, yet we cannot imagine what "hell" makes them burn themselves.

Right.
