Chapter 104, 9 verses
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ويل لكل همزة لمزة
Woe to every scorner and mocker
Woe to every slanderer, defamer,
وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُّمَزَةٍ
الذي جمع مالا وعدده
Who collects wealth and [continuously] counts it.
Who amasses wealth and considers it a provision (against mishap);
ٱلَّذِى جَمَعَ مَالًا وَعَدَّدَهُۥ
يحسب أن ماله أخلده
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
يَحْسَبُ أَنَّ مَالَهُۥٓ أَخْلَدَهُۥ
كلا ۖ لينبذن في الحطمة
No! He will surely be thrown into the Crusher.
Nay! he shall most certainly be hurled into the crushing disaster,
كَلَّا لَيُنۢبَذَنَّ فِى ٱلْحُطَمَةِ
وما أدراك ما الحطمة
And what can make you know what is the Crusher?
And what will make you realize what the crushing disaster is?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْحُطَمَةُ
نار الله الموقدة
It is the fire of Allah, [eternally] fueled,
It is the fire kindled by Allah,
نَارُ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُوقَدَةُ
التي تطلع على الأفئدة
Which mounts directed at the hearts.
Which rises above the hearts.
ٱلَّتِى تَطَّلِعُ عَلَى ٱلْأَفْـِٔدَةِ
إنها عليهم مؤصدة
Indeed, Hellfire will be closed down upon them
Surely it shall be closed over upon them,
إِنَّهَا عَلَيْهِم مُّؤْصَدَةٌ
في عمد ممددة
In extended columns.
In extended columns.
فِى عَمَدٍ مُّمَدَّدَةٍۭ
