In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Woe to every slanderer and backbiter.

Chapter 104, 9 verses
Woe to every slanderer, defamer,
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Woe to every slanderer and backbiter.
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ويل لكل همزة لمزة
Who amasses wealth and considers it a provision (against mishap);
Who has gathered wealth and counted it.

He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
He thinks that his wealth will make him last forever!
يحسب أن ماله أخلده
Nay! he shall most certainly be hurled into the crushing disaster,
Nay! Verily, he will be thrown into the crushing Fire.

And what will make you know what the crushing Fire is?
وما أدراك ما الحطمة
It is the fire kindled by Allah,
The fire of Allah kindled,
نار الله الموقدة
Which rises above the hearts.
Which leaps up over the hearts,
التي تطلع على الأفئدة

Verily, it shall be closed upon them,
إنها عليهم مؤصدة
In extended columns.
In pillars stretched forth (i.e. they will be punished in the Fire with pillars).
في عمد ممددة
