In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
Woe to every scorner and mocker
Waylun likulli humazatin lumazatin

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
Woe to every scorner and mocker
Waylun likulli humazatin lumazatin
Who hath gathered wealth (of this world) and arranged it.
Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,
Who collects wealth and [continuously] counts it.
Allathee jamaAAa malan waAAaddadahu
He thinketh that his wealth will render him immortal.
Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever!
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
Yahsabu anna malahu akhladahu
Nay, but verily he will be flung to the Consuming One.
By no means! He will be sure to be thrown into That which Breaks to Pieces,
No! He will surely be thrown into the Crusher.
Kalla layunbathanna fee alhutamati
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Consuming One is!
And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces?
And what can make you know what is the Crusher?
Wama adraka ma alhutamatu
(It is) the fire of Allah, kindled,
(It is) the Fire of (the Wrath of) Allah kindled (to a blaze),
It is the fire of Allah, [eternally] fueled,
Naru Allahi almooqadatu
Which leapeth up over the hearts (of men).
The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts:
Which mounts directed at the hearts.
Allatee tattaliAAu AAala alafidati
Lo! it is closed in on them
It shall be made into a vault over them,
Indeed, Hellfire will be closed down upon them
lnnaha AAalayhim musadatun
In outstretched columns.
In columns outstretched.
In extended columns.
Fee AAamadin mumaddadatin
