im nächstliegenden Land. Aber sie werden nach ihrer Niederlage (selbst) siegen,
Within a few years. Allah's is the command before and after; and on that day the believers shall rejoice,
Within three to nine years. The decision of the matter, before and after (these events) is only with Allah, (before the defeat of the Romans by the Persians, and after the defeat of the Persians by the Romans). And on that Day, the believers (i.e. Muslims) will rejoice (at the victory given by Allah to the Romans against the Persians) -
in einigen Jahren. Allah gehört der Befehl vorher und nachher. An jenem Tag werden die Gläubigen froh sein
With the help of Allah; He helps whom He pleases; and He is the Mighty, the Merciful;
With the help of Allah. He helps whom He wills, and He is the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful.

They know the outward of this world's life, but of the hereafter they are absolutely heedless.
They know only the outside appearance of the life of the world (i.e. the matters of their livelihood, like irrigating or sowing or reaping, etc.), and they are heedless of the Hereafter.
Sie kennen nur das Äußerliche vom diesseitigen Leben, während sie des Jenseits unachtsam sind.
Do they not reflect within themselves: Allah did not create the heavens and the earth and what is between them two but with truth, and (for) an appointed term? And most surely most of the people are deniers of the meeting of their Lord.
Do they not think deeply (in their ownselves) about themselves (how Allah created them from nothing, and similarly He will resurrect them)? Allah has created not the heavens and the earth, and all that is between them, except with truth and for an appointed term. And indeed many of mankind deny the Meeting with their Lord. [Tafsir At-Tabari].
Denken sie denn nicht in ihrem Inneren (darüber) nach? Allah hat die Himmel und die Erde und was dazwischen ist nur in Wahrheit und (auf) eine festgesetzte Frist erschaffen. Aber viele von den Menschen verleugnen fürwahr die Begegnung mit ihrem Herrn.
Have they not travelled in the earth and seen how was the end of those before them? They were stronger than these in prowess, and dug up the earth, and built on it in greater abundance than these have built on it, and there came to them their apostles with clear arguments; so it was not beseeming for Allah that He should deal with them unjustly, but they dealt unjustly with their own souls.
Do they not travel in the land, and see what was the end of those before them? They were superior to them in strength, and they tilled the earth and populated it in greater numbers than these (pagans) have done: and there came to them their Messengers with clear proofs. Surely, Allah wronged them not, but they used to wrong themselves.
Sind sie denn nicht auf der Erde umhergereist, so daß sie schauen (konnten), wie das Ende derjenigen war, die vor ihnen waren? Sie hatten eine stärkere Kraft als sie, pflügten und bevölkerten das Land noch mehr, als sie es bevölkerten. Und ihre Gesandten kamen zu ihnen mit den klaren Beweisen. Aber nimmer ist es Allah, der ihnen Unrecht getan hat, sondern sie selbst haben sich Unrecht zugefügt.
Then evil was the end of those who did evil, because they

Und am Tag, da sich die Stunde erhebt, werden die Übeltäter ganz verzweifelt sein.
And they shall not have any intercessors from among their gods they have joined with Allah, and they shall be deniers of their associate - gods.
No intercessors will they have from those whom they made equal with Allah (partners i.e. their so-called associate gods), and they will (themselves) reject and deny their partners.

He sets forth for you a parable from your ownselves: Do you have partners among those whom your right hands possess (i.e. your slaves) to share as equals in the wealth We have bestowed on you whom you fear as you fear each other? Thus do We explain the signs in detail to a people who have sense.
Er prägt euch aus eurem eigenen (Lebens)bereich ein Gleichnis: Habt ihr denn (aus der Schar) unter denjenigen, die eure rechte Hand (an Sklaven) besitzt, Teilhaber an dem, womit Wir euch versorgt haben, so daß ihr darin gleich wäret und ihr sie fürchten müßtet, wie ihr einander fürchtet?

So versiegelt Allah die Herzen derjenigen, die nicht Bescheid wissen.
Therefore be patient; surely the promise of Allah is true and let not those who have no certainty hold you in light estimation.
So be patient (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم). Verily, the Promise of Allah is true; and let not those who have no certainty of faith, discourage you from conveying Allah's Message (which you are obliged to convey).
