Al-Humazah


Woe to every backbiter, slanderer,

who amasses wealth ˹greedily˺ and counts it ˹repeatedly˺,

thinking that their wealth will make them immortal!

Not at all! Such a person will certainly be tossed into the Crusher.

And what will make you realize what the Crusher is?

˹It is˺ Allah’s kindled Fire,

which rages over the hearts.

It will be sealed over them,

˹tightly secured˺ with long braces.1
