How many valleys are there in Hell?
Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
The number of valleys in Hell is among the unseen matters that are known only through divine revelation. No mention of their number has been made in revelation. However, some of them have been mentioned in narrations that are not free from weakness. Among these is that "Al-Wail" is a valley in Hell into which the disbeliever falls for forty autumns, and that "Jubb Al-Huzn" (the Pit of Sorrow) is a valley in Hell from which Hell itself seeks refuge a hundred times every day, and that "Ghayya" is a valley in Hell. Nevertheless, there is no practical benefit in knowing the number of Hell's valleys.
