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 hordes it. 2 He thinks that his wealth will immortalise him forever. 3 On the contrary! He shall be flung to the Crusher. 4 Would that you understood what that crushing torment is like. 5 It is the fire kindled by Allah, 6 Which leapeth up over the hearts (of men). 7 Lo! it is closed in on them 8 In extended columns. 9
