And beyond him is Hell where he will be given pus to drink. He
           gulps at it but can hardly swallow it down. Death comes at him
           from every side but he does not die. And beyond him is relentless
           punishment. (Qur'an, 14:16-17)
           Not tasting any coolness there or any drink, except for boiling
           water and scalding pus. (Qur'an, 78:24-25)
           Drinking from a boiling spring. (Qur'an, 88:5)
           And drink scalding water on top of it, slurping like thirst-crazed
           camels. (Qur'an, 56:54-55)
           Abandon those who have turned their religion into a game and a
           diversion and who have been deluded by the life of this world.
           Remind by it lest a person is delivered up to destruction for what
           he has earned with no protector or intercessor besides Allah. Were
           he to offer every kind of compensation, it would not be accepted
           from him. Such people are delivered up to destruction for what
           they have earned. They will have scalding water to drink and a
           painful punishment because they did not believe. (Qur'an, 6:70)
           Each and every one of you will return to Him. Allah's promise is
           true. He brings creation out of nothing and then regenerates it so
           that He can repay with justice those who believed and did right
           actions. Those who did not believe will have a drink of scalding
           water and a painful punishment because of their disbelief. (Qur'an,
           10:4)
           This! So let them taste it – boiling water and scalding pus. (Qur'an,
           38:57)
           Nor any food except exuding pus (Qur'an, 69:36)

           THEY WILL EAT FROM THE TREE
           OF ZAQQUM AND A BITTER THORNY BUSH
           The Tree of az-Zaqqum is the food of the wicked, seething in the
           belly like molten brass, as boiling water bubbles and seethes.
           (Qur'an, 44:43-46)
