Chapter 104, 9 verses
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ويل لكل همزة لمزة
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
Woe to every slanderer, defamer,
وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُّمَزَةٍ
الذي جمع مالا وعدده
Who hath gathered wealth (of this world) and arranged it.
Who amasses wealth and considers it a provision (against mishap);
ٱلَّذِى جَمَعَ مَالًا وَعَدَّدَهُۥ
يحسب أن ماله أخلده
He thinketh that his wealth will render him immortal.
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
يَحْسَبُ أَنَّ مَالَهُۥٓ أَخْلَدَهُۥ
كلا ۖ لينبذن في الحطمة
Nay, but verily he will be flung to the Consuming One.
Nay! he shall most certainly be hurled into the crushing disaster,
كَلَّا لَيُنۢبَذَنَّ فِى ٱلْحُطَمَةِ
وما أدراك ما الحطمة
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Consuming One is!
And what will make you realize what the crushing disaster is?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْحُطَمَةُ
نار الله الموقدة
(It is) the fire of Allah, kindled,
It is the fire kindled by Allah,
نَارُ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُوقَدَةُ
التي تطلع على الأفئدة
Which leapeth up over the hearts (of men).
Which rises above the hearts.
ٱلَّتِى تَطَّلِعُ عَلَى ٱلْأَفْـِٔدَةِ
إنها عليهم مؤصدة
Lo! it is closed in on them
Surely it shall be closed over upon them,
إِنَّهَا عَلَيْهِم مُّؤْصَدَةٌ
في عمد ممددة
In outstretched columns.
In extended columns.
فِى عَمَدٍ مُّمَدَّدَةٍۭ
