হুমাযা (অপবাদ রটনাকারী)

1 Woe to every slanderer, defamer,

1 Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,

2 Who amasses wealth and considers it a provision (against mishap);

2 Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,

3 He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.

3 Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever!

4 Nay! he shall most certainly be hurled into the crushing disaster,

4 By no means! He will be sure to be thrown into That which Breaks to Pieces,

5 And what will make you realize what the crushing disaster is?

5 And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces?

6 It is the fire kindled by Allah,

6 (It is) the Fire of (the Wrath of) Allah kindled (to a blaze),

7 Which rises above the hearts.

7 The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts:

8 Surely it shall be closed over upon them,

8 It shall be made into a vault over them,

9 In extended columns.

9 In columns outstretched.
