Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 8960 — The Sirat (bridge) will be laid across

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "The Sirat (bridge) will be laid across the middle of Hell, like the edge of a sharpened sword, slippery and causing feet to slip. On it will be hooks of fire that will snatch people: some will be seized (by a hook) and fall into it, some will be thrown down, and some will pass like lightning and will not be long in reaching safety; then some like the wind, and they too will not be long; then some like a galloping horse, then some like a running man, then some like a man walking briskly, then some like a man walking, until the last of them will be a man whom the Fire has scorched and who suffered severe hardship in it, until Allah Almighty admits him into Paradise by the grace of His mercy. It will be said to him: 'Wish and ask.' He will say: 'O Lord, are You mocking me, while You are the Lord of Might?' Then it will be said to him (again): 'Wish and ask.' Until, when his wishes run out, He will say: 'You shall have what you asked for, and the like of it along with it.'" (The narrator) said: And Abu Salih narrated to me from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: And ten times as much along with it.
