بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم القارعة
The Striking Calamity -
The terrible calamity!
Das Verhängnis!
ما القارعة
What is the Striking Calamity?
What is the terrible calamity!
Was ist das Verhängnis?
وما أدراك ما القارعة
And what can make you know what is the Striking Calamity?
And what will make you comprehend what the terrible calamity is?
Und was läßt dich wissen, was das Verhängnis ist?
يوم يكون الناس كالفراش المبثوث
It is the Day when people will be like moths, dispersed,
The day on which men shall be as scattered moths,
Am Tag, da die Menschen wie flatternde Motten sein werden
وتكون الجبال كالعهن المنفوش
And the mountains will be like wool, fluffed up.
And the mountains shall be as loosened wool.
und die Berge wie zerflockte gefärbte Wolle sein werden.
فأما من ثقلت موازينه
Then as for one whose scales are heavy [with good deeds],
Then as for him whose measure of good deeds is heavy,
Was nun jemanden angeht, dessen Waagschalen schwer sind,
فهو في عيشة راضية
He will be in a pleasant life.
He shall live a pleasant life.
so wird er in einem zufriedenen Leben sein.
وأما من خفت موازينه
But as for one whose scales are light,
And as for him whose measure of good deeds is light,
Was aber jemanden angeht, dessen Waagschalen leicht sind,
فأمه هاوية
His refuge will be an abyss.
His abode shall be the abyss.
dessen Mutter wird ein Abgrund sein.
وما أدراك ما هيه
And what can make you know what that is?
And what will make you know what it is?
Und was läßt dich wissen, was das ist?
نار حامية
It is a Fire, intensely hot.
A burning fire.
Ein sehr heißes Feuer.
