Al-Nu’man ibn Bashir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Indeed, the least punished among the people of the Fire will have sandals 1 and straps of fire, from which his brain will boil as a cauldron boils. He will think no one is more severely punished, yet he is the least punished among them.”

Note 1
(1) His statement: “Sandals,” meaning under his feet, and “straps,” meaning above them. This refers to one not submerged in the Fire. Hence, it says: “He will think,” in the passive voice, meaning the one with sandals and straps of fire. (As stated in Al-Mirqat)
