Al Humaza

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

2 Who has gathered wealth and counted it.

3 He thinks that his wealth will make him last forever!

4 Nay! Verily, he will be thrown into the crushing Fire.

5 And what will make you know what the crushing Fire is?

6 The fire of Allah kindled,

7 Which leaps up over the hearts,

8 Verily, it shall be closed upon them,

9 In pillars stretched forth (i.e. they will be punished in the Fire with pillars).
