In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ويل لكل همزة لمزة
Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُّمَزَةٍ
Who hath gathered wealth (of this world) and arranged it.
الذي جمع مالا وعدده
Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,
ٱلَّذِى جَمَعَ مَالًا وَعَدَّدَهُۥ
He thinketh that his wealth will render him immortal.
يحسب أن ماله أخلده
Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever!
يَحْسَبُ أَنَّ مَالَهُۥٓ أَخْلَدَهُۥ
Nay, but verily he will be flung to the Consuming One.
كلا ۖ لينبذن في الحطمة
By no means! He will be sure to be thrown into That which Breaks to Pieces,
كَلَّا لَيُنۢبَذَنَّ فِى ٱلْحُطَمَةِ
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Consuming One is!
وما أدراك ما الحطمة
And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْحُطَمَةُ
(It is) the fire of Allah, kindled,
نار الله الموقدة
(It is) the Fire of (the Wrath of) Allah kindled (to a blaze),
نَارُ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُوقَدَةُ

التي تطلع على الأفئدة
The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts:
ٱلَّتِى تَطَّلِعُ عَلَى ٱلْأَفْـِٔدَةِ
Lo! it is closed in on them
إنها عليهم مؤصدة
It shall be made into a vault over them,
إِنَّهَا عَلَيْهِم مُّؤْصَدَةٌ
In outstretched columns.
في عمد ممددة
In columns outstretched.
فِى عَمَدٍ مُّمَدَّدَةٍۭ
