In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
Woe to every scorner and mocker
Wehe jedem Stichler und Nörgler,
Chapter 104, 9 verses
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
Woe to every scorner and mocker
Wehe jedem Stichler und Nörgler,
Who hath gathered wealth (of this world) and arranged it.
Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,
Who collects wealth and [continuously] counts it.
der Besitz zusammenträgt und ihn zählt und immer wieder zählt,
He thinketh that his wealth will render him immortal.
Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever!
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
wobei er meint, daß sein Besitz ihn ewig leben ließe!
Nay, but verily he will be flung to the Consuming One.
By no means! He will be sure to be thrown into That which Breaks to Pieces,
No! He will surely be thrown into the Crusher.
Keineswegs! Er wird ganz gewiß in al-Hutama geworfen werden.
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Consuming One is!
And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces?
And what can make you know what is the Crusher?
Was läßt dich wissen, was al-Hutama ist?
(It is) the fire of Allah, kindled,
(It is) the Fire of (the Wrath of) Allah kindled (to a blaze),
It is the fire of Allah, [eternally] fueled,
(Sie ist) Allahs entfachtes Feuer,
Which leapeth up over the hearts (of men).
The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts:
Which mounts directed at the hearts.
das Einblick in die Herzen gewinnt.
Lo! it is closed in on them
It shall be made into a vault over them,
Indeed, Hellfire will be closed down upon them
Gewiß, es wird sie einschließen
In outstretched columns.
In columns outstretched.
In extended columns.
in langgestreckten Säulen.
