His statement, “from the punishment of Hell,” means the punishment arising from it. The construction here is an annexation understood in the sense of “from”; thus, it is a generic annexation, just as one says, “an iron ring,” meaning, “a ring made of iron.” It is also possible that the annexation is understood in the sense of “in”—that is, punishment in Hell—as Allah Most High says:

“Rather, it was the plotting of night and day, when you commanded us to disbelieve in Allah.” [Sabaʾ 34:33]

That is, plotting in the night. An annexation may carry the sense of “from,” “in,” or “for,” the last of these being the most common.

His statement, “Hell,” is the proper name of the Fire that He—Exalted is He—has prepared for the disbelievers. Allah Most High says:

The answer: It exists, for the Prophet ﷺ was shown the Fire during the eclipse prayer while he was leading the people in prayer (1), and likewise during the Ascension.
