The Backbiter (Al-Hummazah)
In the name of Allah, most benevolent, ever-merciful
Woe to every slanderer and backbiter. 1 Who has gathered wealth and counted it, 2 thinking his riches have made him immortal! 3 Nay! he shall most certainly be hurled into the crushing disaster, 4 And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces? 5 It is the fire kindled by Allah, 6 Which leaps up over the hearts, 7 verily, it will close in upon them 8 In extending columns. 9
