Ibrāhīm

مِن وَرَآئِهِ جَهَنَّمُ وَيُسْقَي مِن مَّآءٍ صَدِيدٍ

16. “Hell is before him, and he will be given to drink of festering fluid.”

The Arabic term /war a’/ means the ultimate and the end of a course, as it is said in Persian, the end-result of this meal is becoming ill. There are three kinds of drink in Hell: 1- A drink that consists of pussy fluid and blood, which comes out of a wound and is called ‘Sadid’. 2- Something which flows out of the skin of the hell-dwelling people and is called ‘Qassaq’. 3- The third drink is ‘melted copper’ which is called ‘Hamim’. The drinks of the hell-dwelling people is burning and not quenching one’s thirst. A few Qur’anic verses in this regard are:

A: “…who are made to drink boiling water so it rends their bowels a sunder.”⁷ B: “…They will be succoured with water like molten copper that shall scold the faces…” ⁸ Of course, those who burned the hearts of the faithful and who slapped them on their faces, making blood-bath flow by their destructive weapons and chemical bombs, must not have any punishment other than what was said. The verse says:

“Hell is before him, and he will be given to drink of festering fluid.”

However, the Paradise-dwelling people will live by the side of delicious tasting water of the streams, feeding themselves on delicious tasting milk and honey provided with them by Allah, and will enjoy themselves from all the Divine blessings.

“…and their Lord will give them to drink of a Drink Pure and Holy.”
