In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Woe to every slanderer and backbiter.
Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ويل لكل همزة لمزة
وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُّمَزَةٍ
Chapter 104, 9 verses
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Woe to every slanderer and backbiter.
Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ويل لكل همزة لمزة
وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُّمَزَةٍ
Who has gathered wealth and counted it.
Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,
الذي جمع مالا وعدده
ٱلَّذِى جَمَعَ مَالًا وَعَدَّدَهُۥ
He thinks that his wealth will make him last forever!
Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever!
يحسب أن ماله أخلده
يَحْسَبُ أَنَّ مَالَهُۥٓ أَخْلَدَهُۥ
Nay! Verily, he will be thrown into the crushing Fire.
By no means! He will be sure to be thrown into That which Breaks to Pieces,
كلا ۖ لينبذن في الحطمة
كَلَّا لَيُنۢبَذَنَّ فِى ٱلْحُطَمَةِ
And what will make you know what the crushing Fire is?
And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces?
وما أدراك ما الحطمة
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْحُطَمَةُ
The fire of Allah kindled,
(It is) the Fire of (the Wrath of) Allah kindled (to a blaze),
نار الله الموقدة
نَارُ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُوقَدَةُ
Which leaps up over the hearts,
The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts:
التي تطلع على الأفئدة
ٱلَّتِى تَطَّلِعُ عَلَى ٱلْأَفْـِٔدَةِ
Verily, it shall be closed upon them,
It shall be made into a vault over them,
إنها عليهم مؤصدة
إِنَّهَا عَلَيْهِم مُّؤْصَدَةٌ
In pillars stretched forth (i.e. they will be punished in the Fire with pillars).
In columns outstretched.
في عمد ممددة
فِى عَمَدٍ مُّمَدَّدَةٍۭ
