Chapter 104, 9 verses
Woe to every slanderer, defamer,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ويل لكل همزة لمزة
Wehe jedem Stichler und Nörgler,
Woe to every scorner and mocker
Who amasses wealth and considers it a provision (against mishap);
الذي جمع مالا وعدده
der Besitz zusammenträgt und ihn zählt und immer wieder zählt,
Who collects wealth and [continuously] counts it.
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
يحسب أن ماله أخلده
wobei er meint, daß sein Besitz ihn ewig leben ließe!
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
Nay! he shall most certainly be hurled into the crushing disaster,
كلا ۖ لينبذن في الحطمة
Keineswegs! Er wird ganz gewiß in al-Hutama geworfen werden.
No! He will surely be thrown into the Crusher.
And what will make you realize what the crushing disaster is?
وما أدراك ما الحطمة
Was läßt dich wissen, was al-Hutama ist?
And what can make you know what is the Crusher?
It is the fire kindled by Allah,
نار الله الموقدة
(Sie ist) Allahs entfachtes Feuer,
It is the fire of Allah, [eternally] fueled,
Which rises above the hearts.
التي تطلع على الأفئدة
das Einblick in die Herzen gewinnt.
Which mounts directed at the hearts.
Surely it shall be closed over upon them,
إنها عليهم مؤصدة
Gewiß, es wird sie einschließen
Indeed, Hellfire will be closed down upon them
In extended columns.
في عمد ممددة
in langgestreckten Säulen.
In extended columns.
