As in English, Hell has many names in Arabic. Thus, it is not a difficult task to have English words for each of the Arabic names of Hell.

Therefore, I suggest the following:

النار - The Fire
جهنم - Gehenna
السعير - The Blaze (or Inferno)
الحميم - The Scorch
الجحيم - The Abyss (or Perdition)
سقر - Hades
الحطمة - The Crusher
