Tafseer Ibn Kathir
Except Hamim, and Ghassaq
Abu Al-`Aliyah said,
- "The Hamim has been made an exception to the coolness, and
- Ghassaq is the exception to the drink."
This has also been said by Ar-Rabi` bin Anas.
In reference to the Hamim, it is the heat that has reached its maximum temperature and point of boiling.
The Ghassaq is gathered from the pus, sweat, tears, and wounds of the people of Hellfire. It is unbearably cold with an intolerable stench.
May Allah save us from that by His beneficence and grace. Amin.
Then He continues,
