The Backbiter (Al-Hummazah)
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
Ruin is for every open slanderer, backbiter. 1 Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by, 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 do you know what the Crusher is? 5 Fire of Allah, Kindled, 6 Which leaps up over the hearts, 7 Indeed it will be shut over them. 8 In pillars stretched forth (i.e. they will be punished in the Fire with pillars, etc.). 9
