The Backbiter (Al-Hummazah)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
Woe to every fault-finding back-biter, 1 who amasses wealth and counts it over and again. 2 He thinks that his wealth will immortalise him forever. 3 On the contrary! He shall be flung to the Crusher. 4 And what could make thee conceive what that crushing torment will be? 5 It is the fire kindled by God 6 Which leaps up over the hearts, 7 closed around them 8 In extended columns. 9
