The Backbiter (Al-Hummazah)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Ruin is for every open slanderer, backbiter. 1 who amasses wealth and counts it over and again. 2 He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal. 3 Nay, he shall be thrown into the Crusher. 4 How will you comprehend what Hutama is? 5 (It is) the kindled Fire of Allah, 6 Which mounteth up to the hearts. 7 Lo! it is closed in on them 8 In extended columns. 9
