The Backbiter (Al-Hummazah)
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Woe to every backbiter, slanderer 1 who collects and hordes wealth, 2 thinking his wealth will render him immortal! 3 Nay, but [in the life to come such as] he shall indeed be abandoned to crushing torment! 4 And what have you understood what the Crushing One is! 5 The Fire of God kindled 6 Which rises above the hearts. 7 Surely it shall be closed over upon them, 8 In columns outstretched. 9
