Reports on the Scale, the Bridge and passing over the Fire

Sayyidah Aishah Siddiqah (may Allah be pleased with her) says: I said: "O Messenger of Allah! Will a beloved remember his beloved on the Day of Resurrection?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Aishah! As for three places, then no: at the Scale, until it becomes heavy or light, then no; when the records of deeds are handed out, given either in the right hand or in the left hand, then no; and when a neck comes out of Hell and wraps around them and closes over them. That neck will say: 'I have been appointed over three, I have been appointed over three: I have been appointed over the one who claimed another god besides Allah Almighty, I have been appointed over the one who did not believe in the Day of Reckoning, and I have been appointed over every stubborn tyrant.' Then it will wrap around them and throw them into the depths of Hell. Over Hell there is a bridge finer than a hair and sharper than a sword, with hooks and thorns on it that will seize whomever Allah wills. People will pass over this bridge like the blink of an eye, like lightning, like the wind, like swift trained horses, like riders (that is, they will pass at various speeds). The angels will be saying: 'O Lord! Grant safety! O Lord! Grant safety!' Then it will sway, and some will be safe, some will be scratched but saved, and some will be thrown on their faces into Hell." (Allamah Haythami says:) I say: Imam Abu Dawud recorded part of this narration.
Imam Ahmad recorded it; its chain contains Ibn Lahi'ah, who is da'if (weak), though he has been declared trustworthy; the rest of its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.

Sayyiduna Abu Bakrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "On the Day of Resurrection people will be brought onto the Sirat (bridge), and the two sides of the bridge will make them fall, just as moths fall into fire. Allah Almighty will save whomever He wills through His mercy." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then the angels, the prophets and the martyrs will be given permission to intercede. They will intercede and bring (people out of Hell); they will intercede and bring (people out of Hell)." Once the narrator named Affan added these words: "They will intercede and bring out (of Hell such people) in whose hearts there is faith weighing as much as a speck."
Imam Ahmad recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.
Imam al-Tabarani recorded something similar in al-Mu'jam al-Saghir and al-Mu'jam al-Kabir.
Imam al-Bazzar also recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When they are brought onto the Sirat (the Bridge), the shi'ar (that is, the distinctive call or particular words) of my Ummah will be: 'O You besides whom there is no god!'"
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir and al-Mu'jam al-Awsat; its chain contains a narrator who was declared trustworthy despite his weakness, and a narrator, Abdus bin Muhammad, whom I do not know.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, on the Day of Resurrection Allah Almighty will call people by their names, and this will be from Him as a veil (of concealment) for His servants. But as for the matter at the Sirat (the Bridge), there Allah Almighty will grant light to every believing man, grant light to every believing woman, and grant light to every hypocrite. But when they come onto the Sirat, Allah Almighty will take away the light of the hypocrite men and the hypocrite women. Then the hypocrites will say (as is mentioned in the Qur'an in these words): 'Wait for us, so that we may acquire some of your light.' And the believers will say (as is mentioned in the Qur'an in these words): 'Our Lord, perfect our light for us.'" (The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:) "At that time no one will remember anyone else."
Al-Tabarani recorded it; its chain contains a narrator, Ishaq bin Bishr Abu Hudhayfah, who is matruk (abandoned).

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "The Sirat (the Bridge) will be placed over Hell; it will be finer and sharper than the edge of a sword, slippery and causing feet to slip. On it will be hooks made of fire which will snatch (people). The one who is seized will fall into it, and (another) will be thrown down. Among them will be one who passes like lightning, and it will not be long before he is saved; then like the wind, and it will not be long before he is saved; then like a galloping horse, then like a man running, then like a man walking briskly, then like a man walking. Then the last of them will be a person upon whom Hell has become due; he will have faced an evil state in Hell, until Allah Almighty admits him into Paradise through the grace of His mercy. It will be said to him: 'Wish and ask!' He will say: 'O my Lord, are You mocking me, when You are the Lord of Might?' It will be said to him: 'Wish and ask!' (So that man will begin asking,) until, when all his wishes are exhausted, it will be said to him: 'You are given what you asked for, and along with it the like of it as well.'"

In the narration transmitted by Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) the words are: "Along with it, ten times the like of it as well." (Allamah al-Haythami said:) I say: There are hadiths transmitted by Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) and Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) mentioned in the "Sahih" which are other than this one and are marfu' (attributed to the Prophet).
Al-Tabarani recorded it; its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih, except Asim, and he has been declared trustworthy.

Sayyiduna Ya'la bin Munabbih (may Allah be pleased with him) transmits this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "On the Day of Resurrection the Fire (or Hell) will say to the believer: 'O believer, pass on! For your light will extinguish my flames.'"
Al-Tabarani recorded it; its chain contains a narrator, Sulaym bin Mansur bin Ammar, who is da'if (weak).

Abu Sumaynah relates: We differed among ourselves concerning the "wurud" (the arrival). Some of us said that a believer will not enter Hell, and some said that all (disbelievers and believers) will enter it, and then Allah Almighty will rescue those who were God-fearing. The narrator says: I met Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: "We have differed among ourselves about this. Some of us say: 'A believer will not enter it,' and some of us say: 'All (disbelievers and believers) will enter it.'" Then Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) moved two of his fingers towards his two ears and said: "May these both become deaf if I did not hear the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: 'Wurud means entering. Every righteous and every sinful person will enter it, but it will be coolness and safety for the people of faith, just as it was (coolness and safety) for Sayyiduna Ibrahim (peace be upon him), so much so that, because of their (the believers') coolness, the Fire (the narrator is unsure, or perhaps the words are:) Hell will give out a roar. Then Allah Almighty will rescue those who were God-fearing and leave the wrongdoers.'" (Allamah al-Haythami said:) I say: A hadith of Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) is mentioned in the "Sahih", which is mawquf (stopping at the Companion) and is other than this narration.
Ahmad recorded it, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).

Sayyiduna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "For my Ummah, the heat of Hell will be just like the heat of a bathhouse."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat; its chain contains a narrator, Muhammad bin Umar al-Waqidi, who is extremely da'if (weak).

Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A day will come upon Hell when it will be like a field of crops; it will stir and turn red, and its doors will be banging."
Al-Tabarani recorded it; its chain contains a narrator, Ja'far bin al-Zubayr, who is da'if (weak).
