Who collects wealth and [continuously] counts it.
Allathee jamaAAa malan waAAaddadahu
الَّذِي جَمَعَ مَالًا وَعَدَّدَهُ
Who has gathered wealth and counted it.
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
Yahsabu anna malahu akhladahu
يَحْسَبُ أَنَّ مَالَهُ أَخْلَدَهُ
He thinks that his wealth will make him last forever!
No! He will surely be thrown into the Crusher.
Kalla layunbathanna fee alhutamati
كَلَّا ۖ لَيُنبَذَنَّ فِي الْحُطَمَةِ
Nay! Verily, he will be thrown into the crushing Fire.
And what can make you know what is the Crusher?
Wama adraka ma alhutamatu
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الْحُطَمَةُ
And what will make you know what the crushing Fire is?
It is the fire of Allah, [eternally] fueled,
Naru Allahi almooqadatu
نَارُ اللَّهِ الْمُوقَدَةُ
The fire of Allah kindled,
Which mounts directed at the hearts.
Allatee tattaliAAu AAala alafidati
الَّتِي تَطَّلِعُ عَلَى الْأَفْئِدَةِ
Which leaps up over the hearts,
Indeed, Hellfire will be closed down upon them
lnnaha AAalayhim musadatun
إِنَّهَا عَلَيْهِم مُّؤْصَدَةٌ
Verily, it shall be closed upon them,
In extended columns.
Fee AAamadin mumaddadatin
فِي عَمَدٍ مُّمَدَّدَةٍ
In pillars stretched forth (i.e. they will be punished in the Fire with pillars).
