Who are those who will be in the lowest abyss of Hellfire? Does that include Pharaoh and his people, the hypocrites, Satan, and those who commit the abomination of the people of Lot? And will the Children of Israel (Jews) be worse than the previous nations, the idolaters, and Quraish?
It is established that Hellfire has levels, and the hypocrites will be in the lowest level of it. However, no detailed distribution of the people of Hellfire across these levels has been authentically reported. Pharaoh, Iblis, and the Jews have been threatened with the most severe torment. Pharaoh, because he was the leader of his people; Iblis, because he is the instigator of every sin; and the Jews, because of the intensity of their disbelief and stubbornness. The degrees of disbelievers vary according to the wickedness of their beliefs, their stubbornness, and their efforts to extinguish the light of Allah. There is no truth to what is mentioned about the perpetrator of the abomination of the people of Lot circling through the levels of Hellfire, as a Muslim will not abide eternally in Hellfire unless he deems disbelief permissible.
