The Holy Quran 15:44 — Surah Al-Hijr

Arabic text

لَهَا سَبْعَةُ أَبْوَٰبٍ لِّكُلِّ بَابٍ مِّنْهُمْ جُزْءٌ مَّقْسُومٌ

Translation

"It (Jahannam) has seven doors. Each door shall have a stipulated share of them."

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

The seven gates of Hell: some of the salaf (the righteous predecessors) took سَبْعَةُ اَبْوَابٍ “seven gates” to mean the seven levels of Hell, one above another; and Ibn Abbas gave their names as follows: Jahannam, Sa'ir, Laza, Hutamah, Saqar, Jahim, Hawiyah. The word “Jahannam” is applied both to one particular level and to all the levels together.
