بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والنازعات غرقا
By those [angels] who extract with violence
Bei den mit Heftigkeit Entreißenden
وَٱلنَّٰزِعَٰتِ غَرْقًا

فَٱلْمُدَبِّرَٰتِ أَمْرًا
The day on which the quaking one shall quake,
يوم ترجف الراجفة
On the Day the blast [of the Horn] will convulse [creation],
Am Tag, da das Zittern einsetzt
يَوْمَ تَرْجُفُ ٱلرَّاجِفَةُ
What must happen afterwards shall follow it.
تتبعها الرادفة

und das nächste hinterherfolgt,
تَتْبَعُهَا ٱلرَّادِفَةُ
Hearts on that day shall palpitate,
قلوب يومئذ واجفة
Hearts, that Day, will tremble,
(gewisse) Herzen werden an jenem Tag beunruhigt klopfen,

Their eyes cast down.
أبصارها خاشعة
Their eyes humbled.
und ihre Blicke werden demütig sein.
أَبْصَٰرُهَا خَٰشِعَةٌ
They say: Shall we indeed be restored to (our) first state?
يقولون أإنا لمردودون في الحافرة
They are [presently] saying, "Will we indeed be returned to [our] former state [of life]?
Sie sagen: "Sollen wir denn wirklich aus den Gräbern zurückgebracht werden?
يَقُولُونَ أَءِنَّا لَمَرْدُودُونَ فِى ٱلْحَافِرَةِ
What! when we are rotten bones?
أإذا كنا عظاما نخرة
Even if we should be decayed bones?
Wenn wir zu verrotteten Knochen geworden sind?"
أَءِذَا كُنَّا عِظَٰمًا نَّخِرَةً
They said: That then would be a return occasioning loss.
قالوا تلك إذا كرة خاسرة
They say, "That, then, would be a losing return."
Sie sagen: "Das wäre dann eine verlustreiche Wiederkehr."
قَالُوا۟ تِلْكَ إِذًا كَرَّةٌ خَاسِرَةٌ
But it shall be only a single cry,
فإنما هي زجرة واحدة
Indeed, it will be but one shout,
Es wird nur ein einziger erschreckender Schrei sein,
فَإِنَّمَا هِىَ زَجْرَةٌ وَٰحِدَةٌ
When lo! they shall be wakeful.
فإذا هم بالساهرة
And suddenly they will be [alert] upon the earth's surface.
und sogleich sind sie auf der Oberfläche.
فَإِذَا هُم بِٱلسَّاهِرَةِ
Has not there come to you the story of Musa?
هل أتاك حديث موسى
Has there reached you the story of Moses? -
Ist zu dir die Geschichte Musas gekommen?
هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ مُوسَىٰٓ
When his Lord called upon him in the holy valley, twice,
إذ ناداه ربه بالواد المقدس طوى
When his Lord called to him in the sacred valley of Tuwa,
Als sein Herr ihn im geheiligten Tal Tuwa rief:
إِذْ نَادَىٰهُ رَبُّهُۥ بِٱلْوَادِ ٱلْمُقَدَّسِ طُوًى
Go to Firon, surely he has become inordinate.
اذهب إلى فرعون إنه طغى
"Go to Pharaoh. Indeed, he has transgressed.
"Geh zu Fir'aun, denn gewiß, er überschreitet das Maß (an Frevel).
ٱذْهَبْ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ إِنَّهُۥ طَغَىٰ
Then say: Have you (a desire) to purify yourself:
فقل هل لك إلى أن تزكى
And say to him, 'Would you [be willing to] purify yourself
Dann sag: Hast du (nicht) den Wunsch, dich zu läutern,
فَقُلْ هَل لَّكَ إِلَىٰٓ أَن تَزَكَّىٰ
And I will guide you to your Lord so that you should fear.
وأهديك إلى ربك فتخشى
And let me guide you to your Lord so you would fear [Him]?'"
und daß ich dich zu deinem Herrn rechtleite, so daß du gottesfürchtig wirst?"
وَأَهْدِيَكَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ فَتَخْشَىٰ
So he showed him the mighty sign.
فأراه الآية الكبرى
And he showed him the greatest sign,
Da zeigte er ihm das größte Zeichen.
فَأَرَىٰهُ ٱلْءَايَةَ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰ
But he rejected (the truth) and disobeyed.
فكذب وعصى
But Pharaoh denied and disobeyed.
Er aber erklärte (es) für Lüge und widersetzte sich.
فَكَذَّبَ وَعَصَىٰ
Then he went back hastily.
ثم أدبر يسعى
Then he turned his back, striving.
Hierauf kehrte er den Rücken und ging eilig weg'.
ثُمَّ أَدْبَرَ يَسْعَىٰ
Then he gathered (men) and called out.
فحشر فنادى
And he gathered [his people] and called out
Da versammelte er (das Volk) und rief dann aus.
فَحَشَرَ فَنَادَىٰ
Then he said: I am your lord, the most high.
فقال أنا ربكم الأعلى
And said, "I am your most exalted lord."
Er sagte: "Ich bin euer höchster Herr."
فَقَالَ أَنَا۠ رَبُّكُمُ ٱلْأَعْلَىٰ
So Allah seized him with the punishment of the hereafter and the former life.
فأخذه الله نكال الآخرة والأولى
So Allah seized him in exemplary punishment for the last and the first [transgression].
Da ergriff Allah ihn als warnendes Beispiel für das Jenseits und das Diesseits.
فَأَخَذَهُ ٱللَّهُ نَكَالَ ٱلْءَاخِرَةِ وَٱلْأُولَىٰٓ
Most surely there is in this a lesson to him who fears.
إن في ذلك لعبرة لمن يخشى
Indeed in that is a warning for whoever would fear [Allah].
Darin ist wahrlich eine Lehre für jemanden, der gottesfürchtig ist.
إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَعِبْرَةً لِّمَن يَخْشَىٰٓ
Are you the harder to create or the heaven? He made it.
أأنتم أشد خلقا أم السماء ۚ بناها
Are you a more difficult creation or is the heaven? Allah constructed it.
Seid etwa ihr schwerer zu erschaffen oder der Himmel? - Er hat ihn aufgebaut.
ءَأَنتُمْ أَشَدُّ خَلْقًا أَمِ ٱلسَّمَآءُ بَنَىٰهَا
He raised high its height, then put it into a right good state.
رفع سمكها فسواها
He raised its ceiling and proportioned it.
Er hat seinen höchsten Teil emporgehoben und ihn dann zurechtgeformt.
رَفَعَ سَمْكَهَا فَسَوَّىٰهَا
And He made dark its night and brought out its light.
وأغطش ليلها وأخرج ضحاها
And He darkened its night and extracted its brightness.
Und Er hat seine Nacht finster gemacht und seine Morgenhelle hervorkommen lassen.
وَأَغْطَشَ لَيْلَهَا وَأَخْرَجَ ضُحَىٰهَا
And the earth, He expanded it after that.
والأرض بعد ذلك دحاها
And after that He spread the earth.
Und die Erde, Er hat sie danach hingebreitet.
وَٱلْأَرْضَ بَعْدَ ذَٰلِكَ دَحَىٰهَآ
He brought forth from it its water and its pasturage.
أخرج منها ماءها ومرعاها
He extracted from it its water and its pasture,
Er hat aus ihr ihr Wasser und ihre Weide hervorkommen lassen.
أَخْرَجَ مِنْهَا مَآءَهَا وَمَرْعَىٰهَا
And the mountains, He made them firm,
والجبال أرساها
And the mountains He set firmly
Und die Berge, Er hat sie fest gegründet.
وَٱلْجِبَالَ أَرْسَىٰهَا
A provision for you and for your cattle.
متاعا لكم ولأنعامكم
As provision for you and your grazing livestock.
(Dies) als Nießbrauch für euch und für euer Vieh.
مَتَٰعًا لَّكُمْ وَلِأَنْعَٰمِكُمْ
But when the great predominating calamity comes;
فإذا جاءت الطامة الكبرى
But when there comes the greatest Overwhelming Calamity -
Wenn dann der größte, überwältigende Umsturz kommt,
فَإِذَا جَآءَتِ ٱلطَّآمَّةُ ٱلْكُبْرَىٰ
The day on which man shall recollect what he strove after,
يوم يتذكر الإنسان ما سعى
The Day when man will remember that for which he strove,
am Tag, da der Mensch das bedenkt, worum er sich bemüht hat,
يَوْمَ يَتَذَكَّرُ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ مَا سَعَىٰ
And the hell shall be made manifest to him who sees
وبرزت الجحيم لمن يرى
And Hellfire will be exposed for [all] those who see -
und zum Erscheinen gebracht wird der Höllenbrand für (je)den, der sieht;
وَبُرِّزَتِ ٱلْجَحِيمُ لِمَن يَرَىٰ
Then as for him who is inordinate,
فأما من طغى
So as for he who transgressed
was den (denjenigen) angeht, wer das Maß (an Frevel) überschritten
فَأَمَّا مَن طَغَىٰ
And prefers the life of this world,
وآثر الحياة الدنيا
And preferred the life of the world,
und das diesseitige Leben vorgezogen hat,
وَءَاثَرَ ٱلْحَيَوٰةَ ٱلدُّنْيَا
Then surely the hell, that is the abode.
فإن الجحيم هي المأوى
Then indeed, Hellfire will be [his] refuge.
gewiß, so wird der Höllenbrand (ihm) Zufluchtsort sein.
فَإِنَّ ٱلْجَحِيمَ هِىَ ٱلْمَأْوَىٰ
And as for him who fears to stand in the presence of his Lord and forbids the soul from low desires,
وأما من خاف مقام ربه ونهى النفس عن الهوى
But as for he who feared the position of his Lord and prevented the soul from [unlawful] inclination,
Was aber jemanden angeht, der den Stand seines Herrn gefürchtet und seiner Seele die (bösen) Neigungen untersagt hat,
وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَافَ مَقَامَ رَبِّهِۦ وَنَهَى ٱلنَّفْسَ عَنِ ٱلْهَوَىٰ
Then surely the garden - - that is the abode.
فإن الجنة هي المأوى
Then indeed, Paradise will be [his] refuge.
so wird der (Paradies)garten (ihm) Zufluchtsort sein.
فَإِنَّ ٱلْجَنَّةَ هِىَ ٱلْمَأْوَىٰ
They ask you about the hour, when it will come.
يسألونك عن الساعة أيان مرساها
They ask you, [O Muhammad], about the Hour: when is its arrival?
Sie fragen dich nach der Stunde, wann sie bloß feststehen wird.
يَسْـَٔلُونَكَ عَنِ ٱلسَّاعَةِ أَيَّانَ مُرْسَىٰهَا
About what! You are one to remind of it.
فيم أنت من ذكراها
In what [position] are you that you should mention it?
Was hast du über sie zu erwähnen?
فِيمَ أَنتَ مِن ذِكْرَىٰهَآ
To your Lord is the goal of it.
إلى ربك منتهاها
To your Lord is its finality.
Zu deinem Herrn ist ihr Endziel.
إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ مُنتَهَىٰهَآ
You are only a warner to him who would fear it.
إنما أنت منذر من يخشاها
You are only a warner for those who fear it.
Du bist nur ein Überbringer von Warnungen für jemanden, der sie fürchtet.
إِنَّمَآ أَنتَ مُنذِرُ مَن يَخْشَىٰهَا
On the day that they see it, it will be as though they had not tarried but the latter part of a day or the early part of it.
كأنهم يوم يرونها لم يلبثوا إلا عشية أو ضحاها
It will be, on the Day they see it, as though they had not remained [in the world] except for an afternoon or a morning thereof.
Am Tag, da sie sie sehen, wird ihnen sein, als hätten sie nur einen Nachmittag verweilt oder seinen (dazugehörigen) Vormittag
كَأَنَّهُمْ يَوْمَ يَرَوْنَهَا لَمْ يَلْبَثُوٓا۟ إِلَّا عَشِيَّةً أَوْ ضُحَىٰهَا
