104 : Al_Humaza

۱۰۴ : سورة الهمزة

SURAH AL-HUMAZAH (THE SLANDERER)

This surah was revealed in Mecca and it has 9 verses. The Holy Prophet (S) said that the reward for reciting this surah can be compared to ten times the number of disbelievers who were present in Mecca.

Reciting surah al-Humazah in compulsory prayers keeps a person safe from poverty. Sustenance comes towards him. His death will not be of a sudden and terrifying nature. This surah is also a cure for pain in the eyes and should be recited before blowing gently into the eyes for relief from pain. Keeping this surah in a taweez around one’s neck acts as a protection from the ‘evil eye’.

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ

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

وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُّمَزَةِ ۙ‏(1)

(1) Woe to every slanderer, defamer,

(1) تباہی اور بربادی ہے ہر طعنہ زن اور چغلخور کے لئے

۟الَّذِىْ جَمَعَ مَالًا وَّعَدَّدَهٗ ۙ‏(2)

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

(2) جس نے مال کو جمع کیا اور خوب اس کا حساب رکھا

يَحْسَبُ اَنَّ مَالَهٗۤ اَخْلَدَهٗ‌ ۚ‏(3)

(3) He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.

(3) اس کا خیال تھا کہ یہ مال اسے ہمیشہ باقی رکھے گا

كَلَّا‌ لَيُنْۢبَذَنَّ فِى الْحُطَمَةِ ۖ‏(4)

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

(4) ہرگز نہیں اسے یقینا حطمہ میں ڈال دیا جائے گا

وَمَاۤ اَدْرٰٮكَ مَا الْحُطَمَةُ ؕ‏(5)

(5) And what will make you realize what the crushing disaster is?

(5) اور تم کیا جانو کہ حطمہ کیا شے ہے

نَارُ اللّٰهِ الْمُوْقَدَةُ ۙ‏(6)

(6) It is the fire kindled by Allah,

(6) یہ اللہ کی بھڑکائی ہوئی آگ ہے

الَّتِىْ تَطَّلِعُ عَلَى الْاَفْئِدَةِ ؕ‏(7)

(7) Which rises above the hearts.

(7) جو دلوں تک چڑھ جائے گی

اِنَّهَا عَلَيْهِمْ مُّؤْصَدَةٌ ۙ‏(8)

(8) Surely it shall be closed over upon them,

(8) وہ آگ ان کے اوپر گھیر دی جائے گی

فِىْ عَمَدٍ مُّمَدَّدَةٍ‏(9)

(9) In extended columns.

(9) لمبے لمبے ستونوں کے ساتھ
