Exegesis of His saying, the Exalted: (He will burn in a Fire with blazing flame)
Allah the Exalted said: [Surat al-Masad: 3] The letter "sin" in His saying: (He will burn) indicates realization and nearness,Meaning: meaning that Allah the Exalted promised him, or threatened him, that he will burn in a Fire with blazing flame,The letter "sin": for the sake of realization and nearness,Meaning: that he will soon burn in a Fire with blazing flame; because staying in this world, however long it may be, the Hereafter is near. Even people in the barzakh (the interval between death and resurrection), even if millions of years pass for them, it is as if it were an hour,Allah the Exalted said: [Surat al-Ahqaf: 35] and something measured by an hour of the day. I think we agree that it is near and nothing more.
So his burning in the Fire with blazing flame is a realized and near matter.
Allah the Exalted said:
He will burn in a Fire with blazing flame
سَيَصْلَى نَاراً ذَاتَ لَهَبٍIt will be - on the Day they see that which they are promised - as though they had not remained [in the world] except an hour of a day. [This is] notification. And will [any] be destroyed except the defiantly disobedient people?
كَأَنَّهُمْ يَوْمَ يَرَوْنَ مَا يُوعَدُونَ لَمْ يَلْبَثُوا إِلَّا سَاعَةً مِنْ نَهَارٍ بَلاغٌ فَهَلْ يُهْلَكُ إِلَّا الْقَوْمُ الْفَاسِقُونَSo his burning in the Fire with blazing flame is a realized and near matter.
