In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
Woe to every scorner and mocker
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ويل لكل همزة لمزة
Chapter 104, 9 verses
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
Woe to every scorner and mocker
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ويل لكل همزة لمزة
Who hath gathered wealth (of this world) and arranged it.
Who collects wealth and [continuously] counts it.
الذي جمع مالا وعدده
He thinketh that his wealth will render him immortal.
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
يحسب أن ماله أخلده
Nay, but verily he will be flung to the Consuming One.
No! He will surely be thrown into the Crusher.
كلا ۖ لينبذن في الحطمة
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Consuming One is!
And what can make you know what is the Crusher?
وما أدراك ما الحطمة
(It is) the fire of Allah, kindled,
It is the fire of Allah, [eternally] fueled,
نار الله الموقدة
Which leapeth up over the hearts (of men).
Which mounts directed at the hearts.
التي تطلع على الأفئدة
Lo! it is closed in on them
Indeed, Hellfire will be closed down upon them
إنها عليهم مؤصدة
In outstretched columns.
In extended columns.
في عمد ممددة
