Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
Woe to every scorner and mocker
Waylun likulli humazatin lumazatin
وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُّمَزَةٍ
Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,
Who collects wealth and [continuously] counts it.
Allathee jamaAAa malan waAAaddadahu
ٱلَّذِى جَمَعَ مَالًا وَعَدَّدَهُۥ
Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever!
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.

No! He will surely be thrown into the Crusher.

كَلَّا لَيُنۢبَذَنَّ فِى ٱلْحُطَمَةِ
And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces?
And what can make you know what is the Crusher?
Wama adraka ma alhutamatu

It is the fire of Allah, [eternally] fueled,
Naru Allahi almooqadatu
نَارُ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُوقَدَةُ
The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts:
Which mounts directed at the hearts.

In columns outstretched.
In extended columns.
Fee AAamadin mumaddadatin
فِى عَمَدٍ مُّمَدَّدَةٍۭ
