The Backbiter (Al-Hummazah)
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful
Ruin is for every open slanderer, backbiter. 1 [Woe unto him who amasses wealth and counts it a safeguard, 2 thinking that his wealth will make him live forever! 3 No! He will surely be thrown into the Crusher. 4 And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces? 5 The fire of Allah, kindled, 6 Reaching right into the hearts of men, 7 closed around them 8 In pillars stretched forth. 9
