'It has seven gates,' some of which are layered one below the other. The uppermost gate is Jahannam (Hell), then Saqar (the Scorching Fire), then Laza (the Blazing Flame), then al-Hutamah (the Crusher), then al-Sa'ir (the Burning Flame), then al-Jahim (the Fierce Fire), and then al-Hawiyah (the Abyss). Jahannam and al-Nar (the Fire) precede the other names. 'For each gate is a portion of them assigned.'
