Hadhrat Qasaama bin Zuhayr narrates that Hadhrat Abu Moosa Ash'ari Radiyallahu Anhu
once addressed the people of Basrah saying, " 0 people! Do weep (over your sins
and for fear of Jahannam) and if you are unable to weep, then at least pretend to
do so because the people of Jahannam will weep until their tears will come to an
end. When their tears are eventually finished, they will cry blood so much that
even ships will be able sail on it." (Ibnu Saad)
