Fear of the Fire

The Qurʾān does not treat the Fire as a distant abstraction. It treats it as a real destination that real choices lead toward. To ask for protection from it is not morbid. It is the most clear-eyed thing a person with knowledge can do.

al-Furqān · 25:65
Our Lord, avert from us the punishment of Hell…

رَبَّنَا اصْرِفْ عَنَّا عَذَابَ جَهَنَّمَ ۖ إِنَّ عَذَابَهَا كَانَ غَرَامًا . إِنَّهَا سَاءَتْ مُسْتَقَرًّا وَمُقَامًا

al-Baqarah · 2:201
Our Lord, Give us in this World that which is Good and in the Hereafter that which is Good, and Protect us from the Punishment of the Fire.

رَبَّنَا آتِنَا فِي الدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةً وَفِي الْآخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً وَقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِ

Āl ʿImrān · 3:16
Our Lord, indeed we have Believed, so Forgive us our Sins and Protect us from the Punishment of the Fire.

رَبَّنَا إِنَّنَا آمَنَّا فَاغْفِرْ لَنَا ذُنُوبَنَا وَقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِ

Āl ʿImrān · 3:191
Our Lord, You did not Create this in Vain. Glory be to You, so Protect us from the Punishment of the Fire…

رَبَّنَا مَا خَلَقْتَ هَٰذَا بَاطِلًا سُبْحَانَكَ فَقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِ
رَبَّنَا إِنَّكَ مَن تُدْخِلِ النَّارَ فَقَدْ أَخْزَيْتَهُ وَمَا لِلظَّالِمِينَ مِنْ أَنصَارٍ
رَّبَّنَا إِنَّنَا سَمِعْنَا مُنَادِيًا يُنَادِي لِلْإِيمَانِ أَنْ آمِنُوا بِرَبِّكُمْ فَآمَنَّا رَبَّنَا فَاغْفِرْ لَنَا ذُنُوبَنَا وَكَفِّرْ عَنَّا سَيِّئَاتِنَا وَتَوَفَّنَا مَعَ الْأَبْرَارِ
رَبَّنَا وَآتِنَا مَا وَعَدتَّنَا عَلَىٰ رُسُلِكَ وَلَا تُخْزِنَا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ۖ إِنَّكَ لَا تُخْلِفُ الْمِيعَادَ
