What is the hottest place you have ever been to?

i was in the uae and afghanistan this summer..it must've been like 40-45 degrees celsius (around 100-115)..but the uae has like 100% humidity and afghanistan is absolutely and completely dry. at least we had air conditioning in the stores and in our hotel in dubai, but there wasnt even electricity or running water in afghanistan, so it was hard to keep cool!!

i have never visited any hottest place...but once i have taken steam bath....and that was quite hot at that time.
