Chapter 101, 11 verses
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. The Calamity!
The Striking Calamity -
Das Verhängnis!
ٱلْقَارِعَةُ
What is the Calamity ?
What is the Striking Calamity?
Was ist das Verhängnis?
مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Calamity is!
And what can make you know what is the Striking Calamity?
Und was läßt dich wissen, was das Verhängnis ist?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ
A day wherein mankind will be as thickly - scattered moths
It is the Day when people will be like moths, dispersed,
Am Tag, da die Menschen wie flatternde Motten sein werden
يَوْمَ يَكُونُ ٱلنَّاسُ كَٱلْفَرَاشِ ٱلْمَبْثُوثِ
And the mountains will become as carded wool.
And the mountains will be like wool, fluffed up.
und die Berge wie zerflockte gefärbte Wolle sein werden.
وَتَكُونُ ٱلْجِبَالُ كَٱلْعِهْنِ ٱلْمَنفُوشِ
Then, as for him whose scales are heavy (with good works),
Then as for one whose scales are heavy [with good deeds],
Was nun jemanden angeht, dessen Waagschalen schwer sind,
فَأَمَّا مَن ثَقُلَتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ
He will live a pleasant life.
He will be in a pleasant life.
so wird er in einem zufriedenen Leben sein.
فَهُوَ فِى عِيشَةٍ رَّاضِيَةٍ
But as for him whose scales are light,
But as for one whose scales are light,
Was aber jemanden angeht, dessen Waagschalen leicht sind,
وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ
A bereft and Hungry One will be his mother,
His refuge will be an abyss.
dessen Mutter wird ein Abgrund sein.
فَأُمُّهُۥ هَاوِيَةٌ
Ah, what will convey unto thee what she is! -
And what can make you know what that is?
Und was läßt dich wissen, was das ist?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا هِيَهْ
Raging Fire.
It is a Fire, intensely hot.
Ein sehr heißes Feuer.
نَارٌ حَامِيَةٌۢ
