It has been narrated in a tradition that the people of Hell will cry for a thousand years in Hell, until their voices become like the barking of dogs, but Allah Almighty will still not have mercy on them.
O friend! Today, a single tear from your eye can attract the mercy of Allah, so shed two tears and Allah Almighty will wash away your sins. If you do not cry today in this world, then in Hell you will cry and bark like dogs for thousands of years, but Allah Almighty will still not have mercy on you.
Hazrat Abdul Qadir Jilani (may Allah have mercy on him) has written that there will be some caves in Hell in which there will be scorpions. An angel will catch a man and take him to this cave with scorpions. He will open the door of this cave, push the man inside and close the door. It is written in the books that those scorpions will rush over the body of that man like bees sitting on a honeycomb. So many scorpions will bite his body at a time. He will cry, scream, and make supplications, but there will be no one there to hear his supplications, no one will come, he will be alone.
Today, if a fly bites, one starts to cry out in pain. Tomorrow, so many scorpions will bite, but at that time, one will have to endure the pain for thousands of years.
It is worth thinking that today, for the sake of trivial pleasures, trivial comforts, and trivial self-love, if a person embraces the eternal punishment of the hereafter, then what could be more miserable and pitiful than that?
