4318. It was narrated from Anas bin Mālik that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "This fire of yours is one-seventieth part of the fire of Hell. Were it not that its heat has been reduced by water twice, you would not have been able to benefit from it. And it is praying to Allāh, asking Allāh not to return it (to its original level of heat)." (Da'if)
4318 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، وَيَعْلَى قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي خَالِدٍ، عَنْ نُفَيْعٍ أَبِي دَاوُدَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ نَارَكُمْ هَذِهِ جُزْءٌ مِنْ سَبْعِينَ جُزْءًا مِنْ نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ، وَلَوْلَا أَنَّهَا أُطْفِئَتْ بِالْمَاءِ مَرَّتَيْنِ، مَا انْتَفَعْتُمْ بِهَا، وَإِنَّهَا لَتَدْعُو اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَنْ لَا يُعِيدَهَا فِيهَا»

The heat of a seventieth part is also not left totally, but to reduce it further, the degree of heat of this portion is cooled twice with water. So, now the heat is only to the extent that could be extinguished with water. b. 'Not have been able to benefit from it' means that the seventieth part of heat is also so hot, that food, instead of being cooked, is burnt up, and water, instead of boiling, turns to vapor at once and disappears.
