Shakir
Woe to every slanderer, defamer,
Pickthall
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
Shakir
Who amasses wealth and considers it a provision (against mishap);
Pickthall
Who hath gathered wealth (of this world) and arranged it.
Shakir
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
Pickthall
He thinketh that his wealth will render him immortal.
Shakir
Nay! he shall most certainly be hurled into the crushing disaster,
Pickthall
Nay, but verily he will be flung to the Consuming One.
Shakir
And what will make you realize what the crushing disaster is?
Pickthall
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Consuming One is!
Shakir
It is the fire kindled by Allah,
Pickthall
(It is) the fire of Allah, kindled,
Shakir
Which rises above the hearts.
Pickthall
Which leapeth up over the hearts (of men).
Shakir
Surely it shall be closed over upon them,
Pickthall
Lo! it is closed in on them
Shakir
In extended columns.
Pickthall
In outstretched columns.
