بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُّمَزَةٍ

Woe to every slanderer, defamer,

ٱلَّذِى جَمَعَ مَالًا وَعَدَّدَهُۥ

Who amasses wealth and considers it a provision (against mishap);

يَحْسَبُ أَنَّ مَالَهُۥٓ أَخْلَدَهُۥ

He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.

كَلَّا لَيُنۢبَذَنَّ فِى ٱلْحُطَمَةِ

Nay! he shall most certainly be hurled into the crushing disaster,

وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْحُطَمَةُ

And what will make you realize what the crushing disaster is?

نَارُ ٱللَّهِ ٱلْمُوقَدَةُ

It is the fire kindled by Allah,

ٱلَّتِى تَطَّلِعُ عَلَى ٱلْأَفْـِٔدَةِ

Which rises above the hearts.

إِنَّهَا عَلَيْهِم مُّؤْصَدَةٌ

Surely it shall be closed over upon them,

فِى عَمَدٍ مُّمَدَّدَةٍۭ

In extended columns.
