In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
Woe to every scorner and mocker
Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُّمَزَةٍ
Chapter 104, 9 verses
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
Woe to every scorner and mocker
Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُّمَزَةٍ
Who hath gathered wealth (of this world) and arranged it.
Who collects wealth and [continuously] counts it.
Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,
ٱلَّذِى جَمَعَ مَالًا وَعَدَّدَهُۥ
He thinketh that his wealth will render him immortal.
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
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.
No! He will surely be thrown into the Crusher.
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!
And what can make you know what is the Crusher?
And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْحُطَمَةُ
(It is) the fire of Allah, kindled,
It is the fire of Allah, [eternally] fueled,
(It is) the Fire of (the Wrath of) Allah kindled (to a blaze),
نَارُ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُوقَدَةُ
Which leapeth up over the hearts (of men).
Which mounts directed at the hearts.
The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts:
ٱلَّتِى تَطَّلِعُ عَلَى ٱلْأَفْـِٔدَةِ
Lo! it is closed in on them
Indeed, Hellfire will be closed down upon them
It shall be made into a vault over them,
إِنَّهَا عَلَيْهِم مُّؤْصَدَةٌ
In outstretched columns.
In extended columns.
In columns outstretched.
فِى عَمَدٍ مُّمَدَّدَةٍۭ
