Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 36870 — Reports on what is prepared

Mujahid said that in Hell there are pits containing snakes like Bactrian camels and scorpions like black mules. The people of Hell will flee from the Fire to those pits, and there the snakes and scorpions will meet them and seize them by their lips and eyes, but they will find no relief except by going back into the Fire. The lightest punishment in Hell will be for the person who will be made to wear shoes of fire, because of which his brain, his eyelids and his molars will boil. The rest of the people of Hell will surge about in it like a few grains in much water.
