قرآن حکیم (شرح آیات منتخب)

عذاب‌های دردناک دوزخ

امیرالمژمنین علی(ع) در جملاتی تکان‌دهنده خطاب به همه ما چنین فرموده است: «بدانید که این پوست ضعیف را طاقت آتش دوزخ نیست. پس بر خود رحمت آورید. شما توان خود را در برابر سختی‌های این جهان سنجیده‌اید. آیا ندیده‌اید که اگر خاری بر تن یکی از شما رود یا بلغزد و بیفتد و خونین شود یا وی را با ریگ تفته بسوزانند. چه حالی دارد؟ چگونه است حال او آنگاه که میان دو طبقه از آتش جای گرفته و هم‌خوابه‌اش سنگ و هم‌نشین او شیطان است؟ آیا می‌دانید که چون مالک دوزخ بر آتش خشم گیرد. از شدت غضب, برخی از آن را بر سر برخی از آن فرو کوبد. و چون بر آن بانگ زند. از هیبت فریادش بر هر سو جهیدن گیرد؟»!
