Chapter 104, 9 verses
Woe to every slanderer, defamer,
Wehe jedem Stichler und Nörgler,
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Woe to every slanderer and backbiter.
Who amasses wealth and considers it a provision (against mishap);
der Besitz zusammenträgt und ihn zählt und immer wieder zählt,
Who has gathered wealth and counted it.
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
wobei er meint, daß sein Besitz ihn ewig leben ließe!
He thinks that his wealth will make him last forever!
Nay! he shall most certainly be hurled into the crushing disaster,
Keineswegs! Er wird ganz gewiß in al-Hutama geworfen werden.
Nay! Verily, he will be thrown into the crushing Fire.
And what will make you realize what the crushing disaster is?
Was läßt dich wissen, was al-Hutama ist?
And what will make you know what the crushing Fire is?
It is the fire kindled by Allah,
(Sie ist) Allahs entfachtes Feuer,
The fire of Allah kindled,
Which rises above the hearts.
das Einblick in die Herzen gewinnt.
Which leaps up over the hearts,
Surely it shall be closed over upon them,
Gewiß, es wird sie einschließen
Verily, it shall be closed upon them,
In extended columns.
in langgestreckten Säulen.
In pillars stretched forth (i.e. they will be punished in the Fire with pillars).
