In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. By the heaven, and At-Tariq (the night-comer, i.e. the bright star);
Waalssamai waalttariqi
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَالسَّمَاءِ وَالطَّارِقِ
Beim Himmel und dem Pochenden!
Chapter 86, 17 verses
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. By the heaven, and At-Tariq (the night-comer, i.e. the bright star);
Waalssamai waalttariqi
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَالسَّمَاءِ وَالطَّارِقِ
Beim Himmel und dem Pochenden!
And what will make you to know what At-Tariq (night-comer) is?
Wama adraka ma alttariqu
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الطَّارِقُ
Und was läßt dich wissen, was der Pochende ist?
(It is) the star of piercing brightness;
Alnnajmu alththaqibu
النَّجْمُ الثَّاقِبُ
(Es ist) der durchbohrend helle Stem.
There is no human being but has a protector over him (or her) (i.e. angels in charge of each human being guarding him, writing his good and bad deeds)
In kullu nafsin lamma AAalayha hafithun
إِن كُلُّ نَفْسٍ لَّمَّا عَلَيْهَا حَافِظٌ
Es gibt keine Seele, über der nicht ein Hüter (eingesetzt) ist.
So let man see from what he is created!
Falyanthuri alinsanu mimma khuliqa
فَلْيَنظُرِ الْإِنسَانُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ
So soll der Mensch doch hinsehen, woraus er erschaffen ist.
He is created from a water gushing forth,
Khuliqa min main dafiqin
خُلِقَ مِن مَّاءٍ دَافِقٍ
Er ist aus sich ergießendem Wasser erschaffen,
Proceeding from between the backbone and the ribs.
Yakhruju min bayni alssulbi waalttaraibi
يَخْرُجُ مِن بَيْنِ الصُّلْبِ وَالتَّرَائِبِ
das zwischen der Lende und der (weiblichen) Brust hervorkommt.
Verily, (Allah) is Able to bring him back (to life)!
Innahu AAala rajAAihi laqadirun
إِنَّهُ عَلَىٰ رَجْعِهِ لَقَادِرٌ
Er hat die Macht dazu, ihn zurückkehren zu lassen,
The Day when all the secrets (deeds, prayers, fasting, etc.) will be examined (as to their truth).
Yawma tubla alssarairu
يَوْمَ تُبْلَى السَّرَائِرُ
am Tag, da die geheimsten Gedanken geprüft werden.
Then he will have no power, nor any helper.
Fama lahu min quwwatin wala nasirin
فَمَا لَهُ مِن قُوَّةٍ وَلَا نَاصِرٍ
Dann hat er weder Kraft noch einen Helfer.
By the sky (having rain clouds) which gives rain, again and again.
Waalssamai thati alrrajAAi
وَالسَّمَاءِ ذَاتِ الرَّجْعِ
Beim Himmel mit der Wiederkehr
And the earth which splits (with the growth of trees and plants).
Waalardi thati alssadAAi
وَالْأَرْضِ ذَاتِ الصَّدْعِ
und der Erde mit ihren Sprüngen!
Verily, this (the Qur'an) is the Word that separates (the truth from falsehood, and commands strict laws for mankind to cut the roots of evil).
Innahu laqawlun faslun
إِنَّهُ لَقَوْلٌ فَصْلٌ
Er ist wahrlich ein entscheidendes Wort;
And it is not a thing for amusement.
Wama huwa bialhazli
وَمَا هُوَ بِالْهَزْلِ
er ist kein Scherz.
Verily, they are but plotting a plot (against you O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم).
Innahum yakeedoona kaydan
إِنَّهُمْ يَكِيدُونَ كَيْدًا
Sie wenden eine List an,
And I (too) am planning a plan.
Waakeedu kaydan
وَأَكِيدُ كَيْدًا
Und Ich wende eine List an.
So give a respite to the disbelievers; deal gently with them for a while.
Famahhili alkafireena amhilhum ruwaydan
فَمَهِّلِ الْكَافِرِينَ أَمْهِلْهُمْ رُوَيْدًا
So lasse den Ungläubigen noch Zeit; lasse ihnen nur eine Weile Zeit.
