وَيْلٌ لِكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُمَزَةٍ
Woe to every slanderer and backbiter.
The Backbiter · al-Humazah · سورة الهمزة · 9 ayahs
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
In the Name of Allâh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
الَّذِي جَمَعَ مَالًا وَعَدَّدَهُ
Who has gathered wealth and counted it.
يَحْسَبُ أَنَّ مَالَهُ أَخْلَدَهُ
He thinks that his wealth will make him last forever!
كَلَّا ۖ لَيُنْبَذَنَّ فِي الْحُطَمَةِ
Nay! Verily, he will be thrown into the crushing Fire.
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الْحُطَمَةُ
And what will make you know what the crushing Fire is?
نَارُ اللَّهِ الْمُوقَدَةُ
The fire of Allâh kindled,
الَّتِي تَطَّلِعُ عَلَى الْأَفْئِدَةِ
Which leaps up over the hearts,
إِنَّهَا عَلَيْهِمْ مُؤْصَدَةٌ
Verily, it shall be closed upon them,
فِي عَمَدٍ مُمَدَّدَةٍ
In pillars stretched forth (i.e. they will be punished in the Fire with pillars).
