The Backbiter (Al-Hummazah)
In the Name of Allah, the Merciful, the Most Merciful
Woe to every backbiter, slanderer 1 Who amasses wealth and considers it a provision (against mishap); 2 He bethinketh that his wealth shall abide for him. 3 Nay! he shall most certainly be hurled into the crushing disaster, 4 and what shall teach thee what is the Crusher; 5 It is the fire of Allah, [eternally] fueled, 6 Which penetrates the hearts 7 Verily it will close in upon them, 8 in extended columns. 9
