Chapter 104, 9 verses
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ويل لكل همزة لمزة
Woe to every scorner and mocker
Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
Wehe jedem Stichler und Nörgler,
الذي جمع مالا وعدده
Who collects wealth and [continuously] counts it.
Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,
der Besitz zusammenträgt und ihn zählt und immer wieder zählt,
يحسب أن ماله أخلده
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever!
wobei er meint, daß sein Besitz ihn ewig leben ließe!
كلا ۖ لينبذن في الحطمة
No! He will surely be thrown into the Crusher.
By no means! He will be sure to be thrown into That which Breaks to Pieces,
Keineswegs! Er wird ganz gewiß in al-Hutama geworfen werden.
وما أدراك ما الحطمة
And what can make you know what is the Crusher?
And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces?
Was läßt dich wissen, was al-Hutama ist?
نار الله الموقدة
It is the fire of Allah, [eternally] fueled,
(It is) the Fire of (the Wrath of) Allah kindled (to a blaze),
(Sie ist) Allahs entfachtes Feuer,
التي تطلع على الأفئدة
Which mounts directed at the hearts.
The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts:
das Einblick in die Herzen gewinnt.
إنها عليهم مؤصدة
Indeed, Hellfire will be closed down upon them
It shall be made into a vault over them,
Gewiß, es wird sie einschließen
في عمد ممددة
In extended columns.
In columns outstretched.
in langgestreckten Säulen.
