The Backbiter (Al-Hummazah)
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful
WOE TO EVERY slanderer, back-biter, 1 Who amasses wealth and considers it a provision (against mishap); 2 thinking that his wealth will make him live forever! 3 By no means! He will be sure to be thrown into That which Breaks to Pieces, 4 And what will make you realize what the crushing disaster is? 5 (It is) the kindled Fire of Allah, 6 Which leaps up over the hearts, 7 verily, it will close in upon them 8 in extended columns. 9
