The Backbiter (Al-Hummazah)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
Woe to every slanderer and backbiter 1 Who accumulated wealth and hoarded it, counting. 2 He thinks that his wealth will immortalise him forever. 3 Never! He will certainly be thrown into the Crushing 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 Lo! it is closed in on them 8 In pillars stretched forth (i.e. they will be punished in the Fire with pillars, etc.). 9
