The Backbiter (Al-Hummazah)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
Woe to every backbiter, slanderer 1 Who collects wealth and [continuously] counts it. 2 thinking that his property will make him live forever. 3 No indeed; he shall be thrust into the Crusher; 4 And what have you understood what the Crushing One is! 5 It is a Fire kindled by God. 6 The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts: 7 Surely it shall be closed over upon them, 8 In pillars stretched forth (i.e. they will be punished in the Fire with pillars, etc.). 9
