104 0 In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful. 1 Woe to every (kind of) scandal-monger and backbiter, 2 Who piles up wealth and lays it by counting (penny by penny), 3 Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever! 4 By no means! He will be sure to be thrown into that which breaks to pieces. 5 And what will explain to you that which breaks to pieces? 6 (It is) the Fire of (the Wrath of) Allah kindled (to a blaze), 7 The which mounts (right) to the Hearts: 8 It shall be made into a vault over them, 9 In columns outstretched.
