The Backbiter (Al-Hummazah)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
WOE TO EVERY slanderer, back-biter, 1 Who amasses wealth and considers it a provision (against mishap); 2 thinking his riches have made him immortal! 3 Nay, but verily he will be flung to the Consuming One. 4 And what will make you know what the crushing Fire is? 5 It is a Fire kindled by God. 6 Which mounteth up to the hearts. 7 Lo! it is closed in on them 8 in columns outstretched. 9
