  1. Zaqqum

    Zaqqum is a tree that will grow in Jahannam. Its dwellers are compelled to eat Adh-Dhari, bitter fruit, to intensify their torment. The Khati'un may eat only the fruit or Ghislin. Its fruits are shaped like devils' heads. According to Shaykh Umar Sulayman Al-Ashqar, a professor at the University of Jordan, once the palate of the sinners is satiated, the fruit in their bellies churns like burning oil. Some Islamic scholars believe the fruit tears their bodies apart and releases bodily fluids. The Qur'an says: The name zaqqum has been applied to the species Euphorbia abyssinica by the Beja people in eastern Sudan. In Jordan, it is applied to the species Balanites aegyptiaca. In Turkey, zaqqum is Nerium oleander.
