The Book of Asceticism · Hadith 265 (#Ḥadīth #10)

النضر بن سويد عن درست عن أبي جعفر الأحول عن حمران قال: قلت لأبي عبد الله عليه السلام: انه بلغنا أنه يأتي على جهنم حتى يصطفى أبوابها فقال: لا والله انه الخلود قلت: (خالدين فيها ما دامت السماوات والأرض الا ما شاء ربك)؟ فقال: هذه في الذين يخرجون من النار.

10.Al-Naḍr ibn Suwayd narrated from Durust, from Abū Jaʿfar al- Aḥwal, from Ḥumrān who said, “I told Abū ʿAbdillāh , ‘We have been informed that Hell will be filled until its gates are [crammed] shut[1] [is that true]?’ So he said, ‘No, by Allah, it is [going to remain as it is] for eternity!’ I asked, ‘[What about the verse that states:] [They will] remain therein forever, as long as the heavens and the earth will endure, except what your Lord wills (Q11:107)?’ He said, ‘That is for those who will come out from the Fire [with the permission of Allah].’”
