Surah Humazah Ayat 1 Urdu translation

Surah Humazah Ayat 1 meaning in urdu

تباہی ہے ہر اُس شخص کے لیے جو (منہ در منہ) لوگوں پر طعن اور (پیٹھ پیچھے) برائیاں کرنے کا خوگر ہے

Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

(104:1) Woe to every fault-finding backbiter; *1

Woe to every scorner and mocker meaning

*1) The words used in the original are humazat il-lumazah. In Arabic hamz and lamz are so close in meaning that they are sometimes used as synonyms and sometimes with a little difference in the shade of meaning. But this difference is not definite and clear, for the meaning given to lamz by some Arabic speaking people themselves is given to lamz by other Arabic speaking peoples. On the contrary, the meaning given to harm by some people is given to hamz by others. Here, since both the words appear together and the words humazat il-lumazat have been used, they give the meaning that it has become a practice with the slanderer that he insults and holds others in contempt habitually. He raises his finger and winks at one man, finds fault with the lineage and person of another, taunts one in the face and backbites another; creates differences between friends and stirs up divisions between brothers; calls the people names and satirizes and defames them.
