The answer

Ibn Abbas's : "If a man were to stand between the Corner and the Maqam, praying and fasting, then died while hating the family of Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, he would enter the Fire," has a weak chain of narration.

As for the Hadith of Abu Sa'id al-Khudri, with the wording: "No man hates us, the People of the House, except that Allah will admit him into the Fire," it is considered authentic by some scholars and good by others.

Hating the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, is an act of disbelief (kufr). However, hating individuals from the Prophet's family, without hating the Prophet himself, does not necessitate disbelief and eternal damnation in Hellfire, unless the hatred involves belittling the Prophet and his rights, and deeming it permissible to defy him. This would indicate major hypocrisy.
