حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الطَّالْقَانِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ، عَنْ عَنْبَسَةَ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ،، ، عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ أَبِي عَمْرَةَ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: أَتَدْرِي مَا سِعَةُ جَهَنَّمَ؟ قُلْتُ: لَا، قَالَ: أَجَلْ، وَاللهِ مَا تَدْرِي، إِنَّ بَيْنَ شَحْمَةِ أُذُنِ أَحَدِهِمْ وَبَيْنَ عَاتِقِهِ مَسِيرَةَ سَبْعِينَ خَرِيفًا، تَجْرِي فِيهَا أَوْدِيَةُ الْقَيْحِ وَالدَّمِ، قُلْتُ: أَنْهَارًا؟ قَالَ: لَا، بَلْ أَوْدِيَةً، ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَتَدْرُونَ مَا سِعَةُ جَهَنَّمَ؟ قُلْتُ: لَا، قَالَ: أَجَلْ، وَاللهِ مَا نَدْرِي، حَدَّثَتْنِي عَائِشَةُ أَنَّهَا سَأَلَتْ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ قَوْلِهِ: {وَالْأَرْضُ جَمِيعًا قَبْضَتُهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَالسَّمَاوَاتُ مَطْوِيَّاتٌ بِيَمِينِهِ} [الزمر: ٦٧] فَأَيْنَ النَّاسُ يَوْمَئِذٍ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ: " هُمْ عَلَى جِسْرِ جَهَنَّمَ " (١)، ،

English translation

Mujahid (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once Ibn Abbas said, "Do you know how vast Hell is?" I replied, "No." He said, "Well, indeed you do not know. Between the earlobe and the shoulder of the inhabitants of Hell, there will be a distance of seventy years, and in it, valleys of pus and blood will be flowing." I said, "Rivers?" He replied, "No, rather valleys." Then he asked again, "Do you know how vast Hell is?" I replied, "No." He said, "Well, indeed you do not know. Aisha told me that she asked the Prophet (peace be upon him) about this verse: 'On the Day of Resurrection, the whole earth will be in His grip, and the heavens will be rolled up in His right hand.' So she asked, 'O Messenger of Allah! Where will the people be on that day?' The Prophet (peace be upon him) replied, 'They will be on the bridge over Hell.'"
