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 Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
الَّذِي جَمَعَ مَالًا وَعَدَّدَهُ
who collects and hordes wealth,
يَحْسَبُ أَنَّ مَالَهُ أَخْلَدَهُ
thinking that his property will make him live forever.
كَلَّا ۖ لَيُنْبَذَنَّ فِي الْحُطَمَةِ
By no means! They will be thrown into hutamah.
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الْحُطَمَةُ
Would that you knew what hutamah is!
نَارُ اللَّهِ الْمُوقَدَةُ
It is a fierce fire created by God
الَّتِي تَطَّلِعُ عَلَى الْأَفْئِدَةِ
to penetrate into the hearts.
إِنَّهَا عَلَيْهِمْ مُؤْصَدَةٌ
It will engulf them.
فِي عَمَدٍ مُمَدَّدَةٍ
in its long columns of flames.
