Fazlollah Nikayin, The Quran; The First Poetic Translation (2000)

Sura 104
The Slanderer
(Al-Humaza)

In the Name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful

1. Woe unto every blaming, smearing, slanderer,

2. Who heaps up wealth and hoard it for the future,

3. Thinking his wealth ensures his life for ever!

4. By no means, no! He shall be handed over
Unto the Hutama;

5. And what is Hutama, you wonder?

6. The Fire of God, the kindled blazer,

7. That leaps up unto hearts,

8. That shall be on them closing over,

9. In columns waxing further.
