وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُّمَزَةٍ
49:13; 68:12.
Humazah means, one who finds fault with others behind their backs and Lumazah is he who finds fault with them behind their backs or before their eyes (Aqrab). As against two basic good qualities—goodness and patience mentioned in the preceding Surah, two bad qualities which cut at the root of all social peace and harmony have been mentioned in this Surah. Backbiting and slander-mongering are the two main evils from which the so- called civilized society badly suffers today.
49:12; 68:12.
Important Words:
ھمزة (backbiter is derived from ھمز) which means he goaded or spurred him, he beat him; he broke it; he drove him; he reproached him or found fault with him; he spoke ill of him behind his back. They say ھمزته الیه الحاجة i.e. want drove him to it; ھمزة means, one who finds fault with others behind their backs much or habitually; one who backbites others; who defames men (Lane & Aqrab).
لمزة (slanderer) possesses all the meanings of ھمزة with this difference that whereas ھمزة means, one who finds fault with people behind their backs, لمزة means, who finds fault with them behind their backs or before their faces. لمزہ also means, he made a sign to him with the eye or the head and the lip with low speech (Lane & Aqrab).
Commentary:
The Surah is of general application but has been applied in particular to those evil-minded opponents of the Holy Prophet, who not being satisfied with persecuting him, defamed him and spread all sorts of lies and slanders about him. As against two basic good qualities, viz. goodness and patience, mentioned in the preceding Surah, two evil qualities which cut at the root of all social peace and harmony have been mentioned in this Surah. Backbiting and slander-mongering are the two main evils from which the so-called civilized society badly suffers today.

هُمَزَة (Humazah) 的意思是一个在背后挑剔别人的人。لُمَزَة (Lumazah) 是一个在背后或当面挑剔别人的人 (اَقْرَبْ, Aqrab)。在上一节经章中提到了两种基本的好品性, 即善良和坚忍, 作为对照, 在这一经章中提到了在根子上损害社会平安与和谐的两种坏品性。背后诽谤人和造谣中伤是今天所谓文明社会深受其害的两种主要罪恶。

ٱلَّذِى جَمَعَ مَالًا وَعَدَّدَهُۥ
9:34; 89:21.

مالا (wealth) means, great wealth; small wealth; worthless wealth which is great in the eyes of him who amasses it but small and worthless in the sight of God.
Commentary:

يَحْسَبُ أَنَّ مَالَهُۥٓ أَخْلَدَهُۥ
决定要倒霉的财迷不管好歹以种种手段不断争利, 而且积聚、贮藏, 引以自傲, 不肯花钱在善事上, 以为他就此可以万世流芳, 百代昌盛。但他是在一种严重错误的想法下劳碌一生的。
The ill-fated miser goes on earning wealth by all sorts of means, good or bad, and amassing and hoarding it, taking pride in it and refraining from spending it on good causes, thinking that this will immortalize him, will rescue his name from oblivion and will render his prosperity abiding. But he labours under a serious misconception.
Commentary:
The verse signifies that the ill-fated miser goes on earning wealth by using all means and amasses and hoards it, taking pride in it and refraining from spending it in good causes, thinking that this will immortalize him, will rescue his name from oblivion and will render his prosperity abiding. He labours under a serious misconception. His hoarded wealth will prove his undoing and will be a constant source of heart-burning for him.

كَلَّا ۖ لَيُنۢبَذَنَّ فِى ٱلْحُطَمَةِ
不遗馀力地反对一件大业, 而且全力以赴试图摧毁它, 却就在自己的眼皮底下看到它繁荣进步, 再没有比这个更令人屈辱或精神上更痛苦了。当古莱西人首领们就在自己的眼皮底下看到伊斯兰教娇嫩的幼苗茁长为一株壮硕的大树时, 他们内心即有这样的剧痛。
حُطَمَہ سے مراد دوزخ ہے کیونکہ حُطَمَہ کے معنے ہوتے ہیں جس کو توڑا جائے۔ اور قرآن کریم اور احادیث سے ظاہر ہے کہ آخر اللہ تعالیٰ اپنے بندوں پر رحم کرکے دوزخ کو مٹا دے گا۔ چنانچہ قرآن کریم میں بھی آیا ہے کہ اُمُّہٗ ھَاوِیَہ (سورۃ قارعہ) یعنی انسان ہمیشہ دوزخ میں نہیں رہے گا۔ بلکہ جس طرح ماں کے پیٹ میں کچھ عرصہ کے لئے رہتا ہے۔ اس طرح کچھ عرصہ کے لئے وہ دوزخ میں رہے گا۔ پھر باہر کی کھلی ہوا یعنی جنت میں آجائے گا۔ اسی طرح حدیث میں رسول کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم فرماتے ہیں یَاْتِیْ عَلٰی جَھَنَّمَ زَمَانٌ لَیْسَ فِیْھَا اَحَدٌ وَّ نَسِیْمُ الصَّبَا تُحَ
There could be no greater humiliation or mental agony for a person than that he should see that the cause against which he had fought tooth and nail and which he had tried with might and main to crush, was progressing and prospering before his very eyes. It is this sense of burning anguish of the heart which the leaders of the Quraish felt when they saw the tender plant of Islam growing into a mighty tree before their very eyes.
Commentary:
الحطمة (crushing punishment) is derived from حطم. They say حطمته السن i.e. old age broke him. حطمت الدابة (hatima) means, the beast became aged and emaciated and weak and broken with age. حطمة means, a vehement fire that breaks into pieces everything that is cast into it; it is also a name for Hell or Hellfire; a man who eats much, i.e. breaks everything in eating; an insatiable man (Lane & Aqrab).

فِى عَمَدٍ مُّمَدَّدَةٍۭ
“捆缚在长长的圆柱上” 指坏习惯、不良的风俗使不信者的人生不能符合行善的标准和价值。
یعنی جب عذاب الٰہی آئے گا تو اللہ تعالیٰ کا رحم چاہے گا کہ ان کو دوزخ سے باہر نکالے لیکن ان کے باپ دادوں کی روایات جس پر وہ چلتے تھے اور ان کی رسوم و عادات ان کو دوزخ میں رکھنے پر مصر ہوں گی۔ کیونکہ انہی کی وجہ سے انہوں نے ایسے عمل کیے جن کے باعث وہ دوزخ کے سخت عذاب کے مستحق بن گئے۔
The "outstretched columns" are bad habits, evil customs and usages which would not let disbelievers conform their lives to beneficent standards and values.
Commentary:
The verse may mean: (1) Disbelievers will be bound down to tall columns when the fire will burn them, i.e. they will be quite helpless and will find no escape or refuge from Divine punishment. (2) They will burn in a furnace of which the columns will be very tall. This again is a metaphor pointing to the severity of the punishment of Hell. The tall columns may also signify evil customs and usages of disbelievers. These bad customs and traditions will take the form of tall columns in the next life.
