In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Woe to every slanderer and backbiter.
Woe to every scorner and mocker
Chapter 104, 9 verses
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Woe to every slanderer and backbiter.
Woe to every scorner and mocker
Who hath gathered wealth (of this world) and arranged it.
Who has gathered wealth and counted it.
Who collects wealth and [continuously] counts it.
He thinketh that his wealth will render him immortal.
He thinks that his wealth will make him last forever!
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
Nay, but verily he will be flung to the Consuming One.
Nay! Verily, he will be thrown into the crushing Fire.
No! He will surely be thrown into the Crusher.
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Consuming One is!
And what will make you know what the crushing Fire is?
And what can make you know what is the Crusher?
(It is) the fire of Allah, kindled,
The fire of Allah kindled,
It is the fire of Allah, [eternally] fueled,
Which leapeth up over the hearts (of men).
Which leaps up over the hearts,
Which mounts directed at the hearts.
Lo! it is closed in on them
Verily, it shall be closed upon them,
Indeed, Hellfire will be closed down upon them
In outstretched columns.
In pillars stretched forth (i.e. they will be punished in the Fire with pillars).
In extended columns.
