بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
وَيْلٌۭ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍۢ لُّمَزَةٍ
Wai lul-li kulli hu mazatil-lumaza
Woe to every fault-finding backbiter;
ٱلَّذِى جَمَعَ مَالًۭا وَعَدَّدَهُۥ
Al-lazi jama'a maalaw wa'addadah
who amasses wealth and counts it over and again.
يَحْسَبُ أَنَّ مَالَهُۥٓ أَخْلَدَهُۥ
Yahsabu anna maalahu akhladah
He thinks that his wealth will immortalise him forever.
كَلَّا ۖ لَيُنۢبَذَنَّ فِى ٱلْحُطَمَةِ
Kalla layum ba zanna fil hutamah
Nay, he shall be thrown into the Crusher.
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْحُطَمَةُ
Wa maa adraaka mal-hutamah
And what do you know what the Crusher is?
نَارُ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُوقَدَةُ
Narul laahil-mooqada
It is the Fire kindled by Allah,
ٱلَّتِى تَطَّلِعُ عَلَى ٱلْأَفْـِٔدَةِ
Al latee tat tali'u 'alalafidah
the Fire that shall rise to the hearts (of criminals).
إِنَّهَا عَلَيْهِم مُّؤْصَدَةٌۭ
Innaha 'alaihim moosada
Verily it will close in upon them,
فِى عَمَدٍۢ مُّمَدَّدَةٍۭ
Fee 'amadim-mu mad dadah
in outstretched columns.
