(salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said: "The Hellfire complained to its Lord,
saying, 'O my Lord, my different parts eat each other up.' So Allah
allowed it to take two breaths - one in the winter and the other in
the summer. This is [the cause pf] the severe heat and the bitter cold
you experience.'"
[Sahih al-Bukhari]
Ibn Umar (radiAllahu anhu) narrated that the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi
wasalam) said: "Fever is from the breath of the Hellfire; so cool it
with water."
[Sahih al-Bukhari]
Abu Dharr (radiAllahu anhu) narrated: "While the Prophet (salAllahu
alayhi wasalam) was on a journey, he said [regarding the performance
of the thuhr prayer], 'Wait until it gets cooler.' He said the same
thing again until the shade of the hillocks extended, and then he
said, 'Delay the [thuhr] prayer until it gets cooler, for the severity
of heat is from the breath of Hell.'" (thuhr period is just before
'Asr)
[Sahih al-Bukhari]
