The Backbiter (Al-Hummazah)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
WOE TO EVERY slanderer, back-biter, 1 who amasses wealth, counting it over, 2 Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever! 3 Never! He will certainly be thrown into the Crushing One. 4 And what will make you realize what the crushing disaster is? 5 The fire of Allah, kindled, 6 which will rise over the [guilty] hearts: 7 Surely it shall be closed over upon them, 8 In extended columns. 9
