The Backbiter (Al-Hummazah)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Woe to every (kind of) scandal-monger and-backbiter, 1 who has gathered riches and counted them over 2 Does he think that his wealth will prolong his stay on earth forever? 3 Nay! he shall most certainly be hurled into the crushing disaster, 4 And what will make you know what the crushing Fire is? 5 (It is) the kindled Fire of Allah, 6 The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts: 7 it closes in on them from every side 8 In outstretched columns. 9
