| In the Name of Allâh, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. |
| 1. |

Woe to every slanderer and backbiter.[] |
| 2. |

Who has gathered wealth and counted it, |
| 3. |

He thinks that his wealth will make him last forever! |
| 4. |

Nay! Verily, he will be thrown into the crushing Fire. |
| 5. |

And what will make you know what the crushing Fire is? |
| 6. |

The fire of Allâh, kindled, |
| 7. |

Which leaps up over the hearts, |
| 8. |

Verily, it shall be closed in on them, |
| 9. |

In pillars stretched forth (i.e. they will be punished
in the Fire with pillars, etc.). |
