4. Sʾaír, a flaming fire for Sabians (Sura iv. 11, and fourteen other places).

5. Saqar, a scorching heat for Magi (Suras liv. 58, and lxxiv. 43).

6. Jahím, a huge hot fire for idolaters (Sura ii. 113, and twenty other places).

7. Háwía, the bottomless pit for hypocrites (Sura, cl. 8).

Baghawi's distribution of the different sections of hell is a proof of the utter recklessness of Muslim Commentators, for in neither case are Lazwá and Hutama apportioned to Christians or Jews in the Qurán.
