The Backbiter (Al-Hummazah)
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Woe to every (kind of) scandal-monger and-backbiter, 1 Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by, 2 thinking that his wealth will make him live forever! 3 Nay, but [in the life to come such as] he shall indeed be abandoned to crushing torment! 4 And what will make you know what the crushing Fire is? 5 The Fire of God kindled 6 which will rise over the [guilty] hearts: 7 Lo! it is closed in on them 8 In columns outstretched. 9
