It is narrated that Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) said, “The severest punishment will befall seven persons (in all). The son of Prophet Adam who murdered his brother, Nimrod who fought with Prophet Ibrahim (a.s.) regarding the Lord, the two persons of Bani Israel who made their communities Jew and Christian, Firon who claimed divinity and two persons of this Ummah, out of which one is worse than the other. These people will be kept inside a casket of glass in the river of fire below Hell.”
