The Backbiter (Al-Hummazah)
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Ruin is for every open slanderer, backbiter. 1 Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by, 2 He thinks that his wealth will immortalise him forever. 3 By no means! He shall surely be cast into the crushing torment. 4 And what could make thee conceive what that crushing torment will be? 5 Fire of Allah, Kindled, 6 Which will climb on to the hearts. 7 Verily it will close in upon them, 8 In columns outstretched. 9
