The Backbiter (Al-Hummazah)
In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Woe unto every backbiter, slanderer, 1 Who has gathered wealth and counted it, 2 thinking his riches have made him immortal! 3 Nay, but [in the life to come such as] he shall indeed be abandoned to crushing torment! 4 Would that you understood what that crushing torment is like. 5 It is a fierce fire created by God 6 which shall oversee the hearts, 7 Lo! it is closed in on them 8 in its long columns of flames. 9
