took me to the Sacred Land (Jerusalem). There, I saw a
person sitting and another standing with an iron hook in
his hand pushing it inside the mouth of the former till it
reached the jawbone, and then tore off one side of his
cheek, and then did the same with the other side; in the
meantime the first side of his cheek became normal
again and then he repeated the same operation again.”
He (s.a.w) was told: “As for the one whose cheek you
saw being torn away, he was a liar and he used to tell
lies, and the people would report those lies on his
authority till they spread all over the world. So, he will be
punished like that till the Day of Resurrection.” (Bukhari)
