Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أُمَيَّةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حُيَيٍّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي صَفْوَانُ بْنُ يَعْلَى، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " الْبَحْرُ هُوَ جَهَنَّمُ " قَالُوا لِيَعْلَى، فَقَالَ: أَلَا تَرَوْنَ أَنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَقُولُ: {نَارًا أَحَاطَ بِهِمْ سُرَادِقُهَا} [الكهف: ٢٩] قَالَ: " لَا، وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ يَعْلَى، ، بِيَدِهِ، لَا أَدْخُلُهَا أَبَدًا حَتَّى أُعْرَضَ عَلَى اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ، وَلَا يُصِيبُنِي مِنْهَا قَطْرَةٌ حَتَّى أَلْقَى اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ " (١)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Ya'la (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: "The sea is Hell." People asked Ya'la (may Allah be pleased with him) about its meaning, so he said: "Have you not read the statement of Allah Almighty: 'A fire whose walls will surround them'?" Then he said: "By the One in whose hand is Ya'la's soul, I will not enter it until you are presented before Allah, and not even a drop of it can touch me until I meet Allah."
