Hadith about hell changing the weather

[Omar Ahmed]

Abu Hurayrah reported that the Prophet said:“The (Hell) Fire complained to its Lord saying: 'O my Lord! My different parts consume each other, so allow me to breathe.' Therefore He (i.e., Allaah) allowed it to take two breaths, one in the winter and the other in summer, and this is the reason for the severe heat and the bitter cold you find (in weather).” [Al-Bukhaari]

Reference : Sahih al-Bukhari 3260
In-book reference : Book 59, Hadith 70

[Omar Ahmed]

is this hadith false or true?

[QuranSearchCom]

False hadith, akhi.  It doesn't make any sense.  Besides, Bukhari was written 300 years after the Prophet, peace be upon him.  So not everything in it is true  Besides, this hadith is in contradiction with the Holy Quran, because Hell has nothing to do with our Universe.  When this Universe and all Universes get rolled back (Cosmic Crunch), and a New Universe and a New Earth gets created, which we will all resurrect on, then we'll be dealing with Heaven and Hell.  But now, we are in an isolated World.  Please visit:

[014:048]  The day will come when this earth will be substituted with a new DIFFERENT غير earth الارض , and also the heavens والسماوات, and everyone will be brought before GOD, the One, the Supreme.

‏14:48 يوم تبدل الارض غير الارض والسماوات وبرزوا لله الواحد القهار

I will add this hadith to the examples, insha'Allah.



Is the Sun Hell?

To all people, especially the ones living in the desert, the sun is what causes the extreme heat.  And little of it causes cooler atmosphere.  I am speaking here in laymen's term.  What does Hell and Heaven have to do with the sun's quantity of heat?  Our hot days don't come from Hell.  They come from our sun.  It is the sun that causes droughts.  It is the sun that causes 2nd and 3rd degree burns to the feet if one walks barefooted in the desert.  This is why they use camels to travel through the unforgiving deserts.

This was all known to the people back then.  So what does Hell have to do with this?  The hadith is false, and it contradicts the Glorious Quran.  Please also visit the following link for the Miracle of earth's Geology in the Glorious Quran:

Thank you for your response brother Osama, but the issue is that this hadith is also in sahih muslim and other narrations.

[Zulqarnain]

Dear Br Osama,

The chain of narration of the respective hadith in Bukhari and (also in muslim with other narration) seems strong.
Btw, I've got a scientific-based metarial for this issue. Hope you check it
