4322. It was narrated from Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri that the Prophet ﷺ said: "The disbeliever will be made huge so much so that his molar will be bigger than (Mount) Uhud, and the size of his body in relation to his molar will be like the size of the body of anyone of you in relation to his molar.” (Da’if)
4322 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ الْمُخْتَارِ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ عَطِيَّةَ الْعَوْفِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: «إِنَّ الْكَافِرَ لَيَعْظُمُ حَتَّى إِنَّ ضِرْسَهُ لَأَعْظَمُ مِنْ أُحُدٍ، وَفَضِيلَةُ جَسَدِهِ عَلَى ضِرْسِهِ، كَفَضِيلَةِ جَسَدِ أَحَدِكُمْ عَلَى ضِرْسِهِ»

Enlargement of the bodies of the inhabitants of Hell is a form of punishment. It is mentioned in the Qur'an that the inhabitants of Hell will be placed in a narrow space. (Surat Al-Furqan:13). In addition, they will sense the place to be narrower due to their large bodies. The reason of enlarging the body is to increase the punishment.
