Hawzah News Agency- The holy Prophet (pbuh and his family) said:

تُکَلِّمُ النَّارُ یَوْمَ الْقِیَامَهِ ثَلَاثَهً أَمِیراً وَ قَارِئاً وَ ذَا ثَرْوَهٍ مِنَ الْمَالِ فَتَقُولُ لِلْأَمِیرِ یَا مَنْ وَهَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ سُلْطَاناً فَلَمْ یَعْدِلْ فَتَزْدَرِدُهُ کَمَا یَزْدَرِدُ الطَّیْرُ حَبَّ السِّمْسِمِ وَ تَقُولُ لِلْقَارِئِ یَا مَنْ تَزَیَّنَ لِلنَّاسِ وَ بَارَزَ اللَّهَ بِالْمَعَاصِی فَتَزْدَرِدُهُ وَ تَقُولُ لِلْغَنِیِّ یَا مَنْ وَهَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ دُنْیَا کَثِیرَهً وَاسِعَهً فَیْضاً وَ سَأَلَهُ الْفَقِیرُ الْیَسِیرَ قَرْضاً فَأَبَی إِلَّا بُخْلًا فَتَزْدَرِدُهُ.

"On the Day of Resurrection, the Hellfire will address three [types of people]: a ruler, a reciter, and a possessor of vast wealth.

It will say to the ruler: ‘O you unto whom Allah granted authority, yet you did not act with justice!’—and it will swallow him whole, just as a bird swallows a sesame seed.

It will say to the reciter: ‘O you who adorned himself before the people, yet confronted Allah with acts of disobedience!’—and it will swallow him whole.

And it will say to the wealthy man: ‘O you unto whom Allah granted an abundance of worldly riches in overflow, yet when the destitute asked him for a meager loan [in Allah’s cause], he refused out of sheer stinginess!’—and it will swallow him whole."

Al-Khisal,Book 3,Hadith 84
