| 
Woe to every slanderer and backbiter.[] |

| 
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.). |
