Chapter 104, 9 verses
Waylun likulli humazatin lumazatin
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُّمَزَةٍ
Wehe jedem Stichler und Nörgler,
Woe to every slanderer, defamer,
Allathee jamaAAa malan waAAaddadahu
الَّذِي جَمَعَ مَالًا وَعَدَّدَهُ
der Besitz zusammenträgt und ihn zählt und immer wieder zählt,
Who amasses wealth and considers it a provision (against mishap);
Yahsabu anna malahu akhladahu
يَحْسَبُ أَنَّ مَالَهُ أَخْلَدَهُ
wobei er meint, daß sein Besitz ihn ewig leben ließe!
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
Kalla layunbathanna fee alhutamati
كَلَّا ۖ لَيُنبَذَنَّ فِي الْحُطَمَةِ
Keineswegs! Er wird ganz gewiß in al-Hutama geworfen werden.
Nay! he shall most certainly be hurled into the crushing disaster,
Wama adraka ma alhutamatu
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الْحُطَمَةُ
Was läßt dich wissen, was al-Hutama ist?
And what will make you realize what the crushing disaster is?
Naru Allahi almooqadatu
نَارُ اللَّهِ الْمُوقَدَةُ
(Sie ist) Allahs entfachtes Feuer,
It is the fire kindled by Allah,
Allatee tattaliAAu AAala alafidati
الَّتِي تَطَّلِعُ عَلَى الْأَفْئِدَةِ
das Einblick in die Herzen gewinnt.
Which rises above the hearts.
lnnaha AAalayhim musadatun
إِنَّهَا عَلَيْهِم مُّؤْصَدَةٌ
Gewiß, es wird sie einschließen
Surely it shall be closed over upon them,
Fee AAamadin mumaddadatin
فِي عَمَدٍ مُّمَدَّدَةٍ
in langgestreckten Säulen.
In extended columns.
