Chapter 104, 9 verses
Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
Waylun likulli humazatin lumazatin
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Woe to every slanderer and backbiter.
Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,
Allathee jamaAAa malan waAAaddadahu
Who has gathered wealth and counted it.
Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever!
Yahsabu anna malahu akhladahu
He thinks that his wealth will make him last forever!
By no means! He will be sure to be thrown into That which Breaks to Pieces,
Kalla layunbathanna fee alhutamati
Nay! Verily, he will be thrown into the crushing Fire.
And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces?
Wama adraka ma alhutamatu
And what will make you know what the crushing Fire is?
(It is) the Fire of (the Wrath of) Allah kindled (to a blaze),
Naru Allahi almooqadatu
The fire of Allah kindled,
The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts:
Allatee tattaliAAu AAala alafidati
Which leaps up over the hearts,
It shall be made into a vault over them,
lnnaha AAalayhim musadatun
Verily, it shall be closed upon them,
In columns outstretched.
Fee AAamadin mumaddadatin
In pillars stretched forth (i.e. they will be punished in the Fire with pillars).
