بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
وَيْلٌۭ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍۢ لُّمَزَةٍ1
Woe to every (kind of) scandal-monger and-backbiter,
ٱلَّذِى جَمَعَ مَالًۭا وَعَدَّدَهُۥ2
Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,
يَحْسَبُ أَنَّ مَالَهُۥٓ أَخْلَدَهُۥ3
Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever!
كَلَّا ۖ لَيُنۢبَذَنَّ فِى ٱلْحُطَمَةِ4
By no means! He will be sure to be thrown into That which Breaks to Pieces,
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْحُطَمَةُ5
And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces?
نَارُ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُوقَدَةُ6
(It is) the Fire of (the Wrath of) Allah kindled (to a blaze),
ٱلَّتِى تَطَّلِعُ عَلَى ٱلْأَفْـِٔدَةِ7
The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts:
إِنَّهَا عَلَيْهِم مُّؤْصَدَةٌۭ8
It shall be made into a vault over them,
فِى عَمَدٍۢ مُّمَدَّدَةٍۭ9
In columns outstretched.
