Just curious, what makes it “hellish? Is there like pain, burring fire and brimstone, etc. I do not have a clear picture of “hell,” except that it is a word I’ve used in the past when I felt emotionally tortured, gravely disappointed, or in physical pain.
Most people are aware of the Christian version of hell, Muslims also believe in hell but not as a permanent place where one goes. Jews believe hell is a kind of “kindness;” in their belief it is called “Gehinnom,” and it is a place where you go to wash and cleanse yourself. Different beliefs about the same concept.
Any punishment which I have had in this life was self imposed; I was in the wrong place at the wrong time, made a bad decision, or just was not aware enough to keep myself out of trouble. I do not believe that God punishes us rather I believe that we punish ourselves, mostly due to unconscious actions. As Jesus said, “forgive them for they know not what they do.”
