Hadith on Salvation: Believers saved from touch of Hellfire

Jabir ibn Abdullah reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “The arrival of the Hellfire, neither the righteous nor the wicked will be spared from passing through it, but it will be cool and peaceful for the believers just as it was for Abraham, until even the fires of Hell will clamor due to its coolness. Then, Allah ‘will save those who feared Him and bring the wrongdoers to their knees therein’ (19:72).”

عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ الْوُرُودُ الدُّخُولُ لَا يَبْقَى بَرٌّ وَلَا فَاجِرٌ إِلَّا دَخَلَهَا فَتَكُونُ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِ بَرْدًا وَسَلَامًا كَمَا كَانَتْ عَلَى إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَتَّى إِنَّ لِلنَّارِ أَوْ قَالَ لِجَهَنَّمَ ضَجِيجًا مِنْ بَرْدِهِمْ ثُمَّ يُنَجِّي اللهُ الَّذِينَ اتَّقَوْا وَيَذَرُ الظَّالِمِينَ فِيهَا جِثِيًّا
