The answer

The narrated by Al-Hakim and Al-Bayhaqi, and authenticated by Al-Albani, indicates that calamities, tribulations, pains, diseases, worries, and even a thorn prick, expiate the sins and transgressions of a Muslim. Furthermore, hadiths in Muslim indicate that these matters elevate one's status or remove sins. The hadiths in Sahih Al-Bukhari, Sahih Muslim, and other authentic collections confirm that the execution of legal punishments (hudud) on someone who has committed a sin serves as an expiation for them. However, the hadith does not mean that disobedient Muslims will not enter Hellfire; rather, they are subject to Allah's will, and whoever among them enters it will eventually exit after receiving their due punishment.
