The Backbiter (Al-Hummazah)
In the Name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate
Woe to every fault-finding backbiter; 1 Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by, 2 He thinks that his wealth will immortalise him forever. 3 Nay, he shall be thrown into the Crusher. 4 Would that you knew what hutamah is! 5 The fire of Allah, kindled, 6 Reaching right into the hearts of men, 7 Verily it will close in upon them, 8 in columns outstretched. 9
