5013. It was narrated that Abû Sa'eed Al-Khudrî said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'No one of you disputes more intensely for something that is rightly his in this
world, than the believers will dispute with their Lord for their brothers who have entered the Fire. They will say: 'Our Lord, our brothers used to pray with us and fast with us, and perform Hajj with us, and you have caused them to enter the Fire?' He will say: 'Go and bring forth whomever you recognize among them.' So they will go to them, and will recognize them by their appearances. Among them will be those who have been seized by the Fire up to the middle of their shins, and some among them those whom it has taken up to his ankles. They will bring them forth, then they will say: 'Our Lord, we have brought forth those whom You commanded us (to bring forth).' He will say: 'Bring forth everyone in whose heart is faith the weight of a Dînâr.' Then He will say: 'Everyone in whose heart is faith the weight of half a Dînâr,' until He will say: 'In whose heart is faith the weight of the smallest speck.'" Abû Sa'eed said: "Whoever does not believe this, let him read this Verse: 'Verily, Allâh forgives not that partners should be set up with Him (in worship), but He forgives except that (anything else) to whom He wills up to a tremendous (sin).'"[1] (Ṣaḥīḥ)

Commentary
'Recognize': So to state, the fire would not touch their faces, as it becomes
known from the forthcoming speech, because the face is the place of prostration. They would be the performers of the ritual prayers. The fire would not touch the places of ritual prayer, or would not disfigure them.
