In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
Waylun likulli humazatin lumazatin
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُّمَزَةٍ
Woe to every slanderer, defamer,
Chapter 104, 9 verses
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
Waylun likulli humazatin lumazatin
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُّمَزَةٍ
Woe to every slanderer, defamer,
Who hath gathered wealth (of this world) and arranged it.
Allathee jamaAAa malan waAAaddadahu
الَّذِي جَمَعَ مَالًا وَعَدَّدَهُ
Who amasses wealth and considers it a provision (against mishap);
He thinketh that his wealth will render him immortal.
Yahsabu anna malahu akhladahu
يَحْسَبُ أَنَّ مَالَهُ أَخْلَدَهُ
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
Nay, but verily he will be flung to the Consuming One.
Kalla layunbathanna fee alhutamati
كَلَّا ۖ لَيُنبَذَنَّ فِي الْحُطَمَةِ
Nay! he shall most certainly be hurled into the crushing disaster,
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Consuming One is!
Wama adraka ma alhutamatu
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الْحُطَمَةُ
And what will make you realize what the crushing disaster is?
(It is) the fire of Allah, kindled,
Naru Allahi almooqadatu
نَارُ اللَّهِ الْمُوقَدَةُ
It is the fire kindled by Allah,
Which leapeth up over the hearts (of men).
Allatee tattaliAAu AAala alafidati
الَّتِي تَطَّلِعُ عَلَى الْأَفْئِدَةِ
Which rises above the hearts.
Lo! it is closed in on them
lnnaha AAalayhim musadatun
إِنَّهَا عَلَيْهِم مُّؤْصَدَةٌ
Surely it shall be closed over upon them,
In outstretched columns.
Fee AAamadin mumaddadatin
فِي عَمَدٍ مُّمَدَّدَةٍ
In extended columns.
