The Backbiter (Al-Hummazah)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
Woe to every (kind of) scandal-monger and-backbiter, 1 who amasses wealth and counts it over and again. 2 Does he think that his wealth will prolong his stay on earth 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 It is the fire of Allah, [eternally] fueled, 6 the Fire that shall rise to the hearts (of criminals). 7 Lo! it is closed in on them 8 In pillars stretched forth (i.e. they will be punished in the Fire with pillars, etc.). 9
