Is the Punishment in Hell Eternal?

It should be clear that the Hereafter is from among the Unseen issues that we only know through revelation. So, if you need detailed information regarding the Hereafter and its scenes, then try to visit a nearby Islamic Center where the Imam can provide you with a reliable book that clarifies it for you.

Sheikh `Abdul-Majeed Subh, a prominent Azharite scholar, states: “The eternal punishment in Hell is for those who dies on kufr or disbelief. However, there are some Muslim scholars who are of the opinion that the Hell is not eternal, and it may perish one day by the Will of Allah. This opinion is mentioned in Imam Ibn Al-Qayyim book “Hadi Al-Arwah”. As for sinful Muslims whom Almighty Allah wills to punish them for their faults and sins, they will reside for some time in Hell, and they will leave it and enter Paradise.”
