A severe punishment for heedlessness

Allāh ﷻ says in the Qur’an:إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا سَوْفَ نُصْلِيهِمْ نَارًۭا كُلَّمَا نَضِجَتْ جُلُودُهُم بَدَّلْنَٰهُمْ جُلُودًا غَيْرَهَا لِيَذُوقُوا۟ ٱلْعَذَابَ ۗ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ كَانَ عَزِيزًا حَكِيمًۭا
Indeed those who disbelieve in our signs, we shall soon drive them into the fire. Every time their skins are roasted through, we will replace it with other skin so that they may taste the punishment. Indeed Allāh is ever Almighty and All Wise.
[4:56]Anas رضي الله عنه narrates that the Prophet ﷺ asked Jibreel عليه السلام “Why is it that I don’t see Mikaa’eel laugh?”
He replied “Mikaa’eel has not laughed since Hellfire was created”
[Ahmad (3/224)]Some narrations about when the righteous would see fire burning.
عن سعد بن الأخرم قال: كنت أمشي مع ابن مسعود رضي الله عنه فمرّ بالحدادين وقد أخرجوا حديدا من النار، فقام ينظر إليه ويبكي
Sa’d ibn Al Akhram said “I was once walking with Ibn Mas’ood رضي الله عنه, and he passed by the blacksmiths and they had just taken out iron from the fire. So he stood watching them and crying.
Alaa ibn Muhammad said “I entered upon Ataa’ as Sulami and I saw him unconscious, so I said to his wife ‘what’s wrong with him?’
She replied ‘a maid kindled the oven for us, when he looked at it, he fell unconscious’”
The intention is not to depress us. But this reminder is needed, as we easily fall into the traps of heedlessness regarding the Akhirah.
Too often do we unbalance the scale with excessive hopefulness while our fear of Allāh ﷻ reduces drastically, a view of a burning fire should provide us with a reality check and bring us back down to earth.
حاسبوا أنفسكم قبل أن تحاسبوا
Take account of yourselves before you are taken to account.
Oh Allāh ﷻ! Awaken our hearts from heedlessness and fill it with Imaan and Taqwa and grant us safety from the fire.
آمِيْن
