The Backbiter (Al-Hummazah)
In the name of Allah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful
Woe unto every backbiter, slanderer, 1 who amasses wealth and counts it over and again. 2 thinking that his property will make him live forever. 3 Nay, but verily he will be flung to the Consuming One. 4 And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces? 5 It is the Fire kindled by Allah, 6 to penetrate into the hearts. 7 Lo! it is closed in on them 8 In extended columns. 9
