Name and Background
The name of this Soorah, Al-Humazah, comes from its first verse.
At-Takaathur described how the pursuit of maximum abundance makes people neglect the Hereafter, where they are going to be losers; and thus their notion of success is faulty. Al-‘Aŝr described the qualities of people who will really avoid loss, and attain salvation and success. This Soorah describes the kind of personality traits that accumulators of wealth adopt and the punishment they will receive as a result.
