Imagine you're really, really hungry. You know that feeling when your stomach is growling, and it feels like it's been ages since you last ate? But in Jahannam its a lot worse. Now, imagine the only thing available to eat is a fruit from the Shajarah Al Zaqqum. It's a fruit that looks like a devil's head, and it tastes even worse than it looks. When you eat the fruit, it just makes your stomach fill up with more emptiness. And the taste, it's just so, so awful. Shajjarah Al Zaqqum is mentioned in Surah Al-Dukhan (44:43-46), Surah Al-Saffat (37:62-68), and Surah Al-Ghashiyah (88:6-7).
