Surah al-Haqqah ayah 32

Date: October 30, 2003 | 4 Ramadan 1424 Hijriah
Blog: A Quranic Journal
Arabic text of ayah

Thumma fi silsilatin thar'uha sab'una thira'an fa uslukuhu

Then fasten him on a chain whose length is seventy cubits

The following is an excerpt of commentary on this ayah, from Tafsir Ibn Kathir:

Imam Ahmad recorded from Abdullah bin Amr that the Messenger of Allah said, "If a drop of lead like this - and he pointed to a skull bone - were sent from the heaven to the earth, and it is a distance of five hundred years travel, it would reach the earth before night. And if it (the same drop of lead) were sent from the head of the chain (of Hell), it would travel forty fall seasons, night and day, before it would reach its (Hell's) cavity or base"
