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,
Waylun likulli humazatin lumazatin
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,
Waylun likulli humazatin lumazatin
وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُّمَزَةٍ
Who has gathered wealth and counted it.
Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,
Allathee jamaAAa malan waAAaddadahu
ٱلَّذِى جَمَعَ مَالًا وَعَدَّدَهُۥ
He thinks that his wealth will make him last forever!
Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever!
Yahsabu anna malahu akhladahu
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,
Kalla layunbathanna fee alhutamati
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?
Wama adraka ma alhutamatu
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْحُطَمَةُ
The fire of Allah kindled,
(It is) the Fire of (the Wrath of) Allah kindled (to a blaze),
Naru Allahi almooqadatu
نَارُ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُوقَدَةُ
Which leaps up over the hearts,
The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts:
Allatee tattaliAAu AAala alafidati
ٱلَّتِى تَطَّلِعُ عَلَى ٱلْأَفْـِٔدَةِ
Verily, it shall be closed upon them,
It shall be made into a vault over them,
lnnaha AAalayhim musadatun
إِنَّهَا عَلَيْهِم مُّؤْصَدَةٌ
In pillars stretched forth (i.e. they will be punished in the Fire with pillars).
In columns outstretched.
Fee AAamadin mumaddadatin
فِى عَمَدٍ مُّمَدَّدَةٍۭ
