The Backbiter (Al-Hummazah)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
Woe to every backbiter, slanderer 1 Who collects wealth and [continuously] counts it. 2 He thinketh that his wealth will render him immortal. 3 Nay, but verily he will be flung to the Consuming One. 4 Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Consuming One is! 5 It is the Fire kindled by Allah, 6 roaring over the hearts 7 Verily it will close in upon them, 8 in columns outstretched. 9
