2589. Abū Hurairah narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: "This Fire of yours, which the sons of Ādam kindle, is one part from seventy parts of the heat of Hell." They said: "By Allāh! Would it not have been enough O Messenger of Allāh?!" He said: "It is sixty-nine parts more – all of them similar in heat." (Saḥīḥ) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Ḥadīth is Ḥasan Saḥīḥ. Hammām bin Munabbih (a narrator in the chain) is the brother of Wahb bin Munabbih, and Wahb reported from him.
٢٥٨٩ - حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدٌ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنْ هَمَّامِ بْنِ مُنَبِّهٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «نَارُكُمْ هَذِهِ الَّتِي يُوقِدُ بَنُو آدَمَ جُزْءٌ» وَاحِدٌ مِنْ سَبْعِينَ جُزْءًا مِنْ حَرِّ جَهَنَّمَ. قَالُوا: وَاللهِ إِنْ كَانَتْ لَكَافِيَةً يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، قَالَ: فَإِنَّهَا فُضِّلَتْ بِتِسْعَةٍ وَسِتِّينَ جُزْءًا كُلُّهُنَّ مِثْلُ حَرِّهَا. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ. وَهَمَّامُ بْنُ مُنَبِّهٍ هُوَ أَخُو وَهْبِ بْنِ مُنَبِّهٍ، وَقَدْ رَوَى عَنْهُ وَهْبٌ.

We know different kinds of fire in the world where the degree of heat varies one from other. For instance, grass on fire emits less heat than burning wood. Burning coal, on the other hand, is much hotter than burning wood. Similar is the case of the heat generated by welding and electricity. Far more intense than all these, is the heat generated by the killer bombs. Hellfire, however, generates more heat i.e., sixty-nine times more than the normal fire. The main purpose behind the description of the Hellfire is to kindle in the hearts of the audience the urge to take measures of righteous deeds to avoid that fire.
