Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ويل لكل همزة لمزة
Waylun likulli humazatin lumazatin
وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُّمَزَةٍ
Chapter 104, 9 verses
Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ويل لكل همزة لمزة
Waylun likulli humazatin lumazatin
وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُّمَزَةٍ
Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,
الذي جمع مالا وعدده
Allathee jamaAAa malan waAAaddadahu
ٱلَّذِى جَمَعَ مَالًا وَعَدَّدَهُۥ
Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever!
يحسب أن ماله أخلده
Yahsabu anna malahu akhladahu
يَحْسَبُ أَنَّ مَالَهُۥٓ أَخْلَدَهُۥ
By no means! He will be sure to be thrown into That which Breaks to Pieces,
كلا ۖ لينبذن في الحطمة
Kalla layunbathanna fee alhutamati
كَلَّا لَيُنۢبَذَنَّ فِى ٱلْحُطَمَةِ
And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces?
وما أدراك ما الحطمة
Wama adraka ma alhutamatu
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْحُطَمَةُ
(It is) the Fire of (the Wrath of) Allah kindled (to a blaze),
نار الله الموقدة
Naru Allahi almooqadatu
نَارُ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُوقَدَةُ
The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts:
التي تطلع على الأفئدة
Allatee tattaliAAu AAala alafidati
ٱلَّتِى تَطَّلِعُ عَلَى ٱلْأَفْـِٔدَةِ
It shall be made into a vault over them,
إنها عليهم مؤصدة
lnnaha AAalayhim musadatun
إِنَّهَا عَلَيْهِم مُّؤْصَدَةٌ
In columns outstretched.
في عمد ممددة
Fee AAamadin mumaddadatin
فِى عَمَدٍ مُّمَدَّدَةٍۭ
