The Backbiter (Al-Hummazah)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
Woe to every slanderer and backbiter 1 Who amasses wealth and considers it a provision (against mishap); 2 thinking that his wealth will make him live forever. 3 Nay, but [in the life to come such as] he shall indeed be abandoned to crushing torment! 4 And what could make thee conceive what that crushing torment will be? 5 It is a Fire kindled by God. 6 Which penetrates the hearts 7 closed around them 8 In extended columns. 9
