In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. The Calamity!
Das Verhängnis!
The terrible calamity!
ٱلْقَارِعَةُ
What is the Calamity ?
Was ist das Verhängnis?

مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ

Und was läßt dich wissen, was das Verhängnis ist?
And what will make you comprehend what the terrible calamity is?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ
A day wherein mankind will be as thickly - scattered moths
Am Tag, da die Menschen wie flatternde Motten sein werden
The day on which men shall be as scattered moths,
يَوْمَ يَكُونُ ٱلنَّاسُ كَٱلْفَرَاشِ ٱلْمَبْثُوثِ
And the mountains will become as carded wool.
und die Berge wie zerflockte gefärbte Wolle sein werden.
And the mountains shall be as loosened wool.
وَتَكُونُ ٱلْجِبَالُ كَٱلْعِهْنِ ٱلْمَنفُوشِ
Then, as for him whose scales are heavy (with good works),
Was nun jemanden angeht, dessen Waagschalen schwer sind,
Then as for him whose measure of good deeds is heavy,
فَأَمَّا مَن ثَقُلَتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ
He will live a pleasant life.
so wird er in einem zufriedenen Leben sein.
He shall live a pleasant life.
فَهُوَ فِى عِيشَةٍ رَّاضِيَةٍ
But as for him whose scales are light,
Was aber jemanden angeht, dessen Waagschalen leicht sind,
And as for him whose measure of good deeds is light,
وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ
A bereft and Hungry One will be his mother,
dessen Mutter wird ein Abgrund sein.
His abode shall be the abyss.
فَأُمُّهُۥ هَاوِيَةٌ
Ah, what will convey unto thee what she is! -
Und was läßt dich wissen, was das ist?
And what will make you know what it is?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا هِيَهْ
Raging Fire.
Ein sehr heißes Feuer.
A burning fire.
نَارٌ حَامِيَةٌۢ
