Chapter 104, 9 verses
Woe to every slanderer, defamer,
Woe to every scorner and mocker
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
Wehe jedem Stichler und Nörgler,
Who amasses wealth and considers it a provision (against mishap);
Who collects wealth and [continuously] counts it.
Who hath gathered wealth (of this world) and arranged it.
der Besitz zusammenträgt und ihn zählt und immer wieder zählt,
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
He thinketh that his wealth will render him immortal.
wobei er meint, daß sein Besitz ihn ewig leben ließe!
Nay! he shall most certainly be hurled into the crushing disaster,
No! He will surely be thrown into the Crusher.
Nay, but verily he will be flung to the Consuming One.
Keineswegs! Er wird ganz gewiß in al-Hutama geworfen werden.
And what will make you realize what the crushing disaster is?
And what can make you know what is the Crusher?
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Consuming One is!
Was läßt dich wissen, was al-Hutama ist?
It is the fire kindled by Allah,
It is the fire of Allah, [eternally] fueled,
(It is) the fire of Allah, kindled,
(Sie ist) Allahs entfachtes Feuer,
Which rises above the hearts.
Which mounts directed at the hearts.
Which leapeth up over the hearts (of men).
das Einblick in die Herzen gewinnt.
Surely it shall be closed over upon them,
Indeed, Hellfire will be closed down upon them
Lo! it is closed in on them
Gewiß, es wird sie einschließen
In extended columns.
In extended columns.
In outstretched columns.
in langgestreckten Säulen.
