It may be not the hottest in literal sense, but Bandar Al Abbas I think that could be seen as "quite hot" during summer, because of its exorbitant humidity. One of the top 10 worst climates I have ever seen.
That is one of the worst on the planet. This could be one of the cities that will become uninhabitable during mid-summer by the end of the century. Without a space suit (outside) or A/C (inside) I mean.

These averages aren't the real ones. The averages highs for Kuwait City are 44.0 °C for June, 44.5 °C for July and nearly 44.9 °C for July but they don't exceed 46 °C, and even not 45 °C. The averages quoted in Wikipedia are totally wrong, and I know some websites which can prove it. I believe the climate data for Ahwaz is nearly true but not for Kuwait City except for August, indeed the average high for Ahwaz is 45.3 °C in August not 46.2 °C. These desert cities know extreme heat during summer, I agree with you but aren't as hot as you may think. Maybe you all don't want to recognize the Sahara desert is the hottest place on Earth because it's an African desert or something like that. And even though the averages highs for Kuwait City you quoted were true (this isn't the case but let's say it is), some spots in the Sahara desert such as Taoudenni or Hassi Bou Bernous have higher averages highs, that often exceed 47 °C.
Averages highs for Taoudenni, Mali : 46.6 °C in June, 47.9 °C in July, 46.8 °C in August
Averages highs for El Guettara, Mali : 46.4 °C in June, 46.7 °C in July, 45.4 °C in August
Averages highs for Chenachen, Algeria : 44.5 °C in June, 48.3 °C in July, 46.7 °C in August
Averages highs for Hassi Bou Bernous, Algeria : 44 °C in June, 47.6 °C in July, 45.8 °C in August
^I think tpactionreplay often used to make outrageous claims about the Sahara without really providing adequate sources to support any of those claims. So it is advisable not to believe the things he says in the earlier pages of this thread.
How about the climates that have the highest year-round averages?
That has to be along the southern Red Sea coast
