Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: If the weather is extremely hot, Allah turns His hearing and sight toward the people of the earth. So if one saysJami` at-Tirmidhi 3590Hasan (Darussalam), Allah the Exalted and Majestic says to Hell: "A servant of Mine has sought refuge in Me from your heat, and I bear witness that I have granted him protection from you." My question, Honorable Shaykh, is: Is there any evidence for this statement in the Book, the Sunnah, or the words of the righteous predecessors?
Answer:
There is no need to verify this transmission if it is brought, but it is on the basis of generality.
For the intensity of heat is from the scorching heat of Hell, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, reminding of the Fire, seeking refuge in Allah from the heat of the Fire, reminding of the Fire,[At-Tawbah 9:81].
There is no doubt that intense heat reminds one of the Fire, so one seeks refuge in Allah from the heat of the Fire, may Allah protect us.[Al-Waqi'ah 56:73] for the strong travelers who benefit from the fire, and in the cold.
So in it is benefit, and in it is also a warning, a reminder. The one in this world reminds of what? Not what is in this world of joy, bliss, pleasant scents, and fruits, and the cold, this reminds of Paradise. And what is in the Fire of heat, worries, diseases, and illnesses reminds of the Fire, and refuge be sought in Allah. The Muslim remembers these matters and does not neglect them.

وَقَالُوا لَا تَنفِرُوا فِي الْحَرِّ قُلْ نَارُ جَهَنَّمَ أَشَدُّ حَرًّا لَّوْ كَانُوا يَفْقَهُونَThere is no doubt that intense heat reminds one of the Fire, so one seeks refuge in Allah from the heat of the Fire, may Allah protect us.
