Woe to every scorner and mocker
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Woe to every slanderer and backbiter.
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
Chapter 104, 9 verses
Woe to every scorner and mocker
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Woe to every slanderer and backbiter.
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
Who collects wealth and [continuously] counts it.
Who has gathered wealth and counted it.
Who hath gathered wealth (of this world) and arranged it.
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
He thinks that his wealth will make him last forever!
He thinketh that his wealth will render him immortal.
No! He will surely be thrown into the Crusher.
Nay! Verily, he will be thrown into the crushing Fire.
Nay, but verily he will be flung to the Consuming One.
And what can make you know what is the Crusher?
And what will make you know what the crushing Fire is?
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Consuming One is!
It is the fire of Allah, [eternally] fueled,
The fire of Allah kindled,
(It is) the fire of Allah, kindled,
Which mounts directed at the hearts.
Which leaps up over the hearts,
Which leapeth up over the hearts (of men).
Indeed, Hellfire will be closed down upon them
Verily, it shall be closed upon them,
Lo! it is closed in on them
In extended columns.
In pillars stretched forth (i.e. they will be punished in the Fire with pillars).
In outstretched columns.
