In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. When the heaven is cleft asunder.
Wenn der Himmel zerbricht
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم إذا السماء انفطرت
When the heaven becomes cleft asunder,
And when the stars have fallen and scattered.
und wenn die Sterne sich zerstreuen
وإذا الكواكب انتثرت
And when the stars become dispersed,
And when the seas are burst forth.
und wenn die Meere gesprengt werden
وإذا البحار فجرت
And when the seas are made to flow forth,
And when the graves are turned upside down (and bring out their contents)
und wenn die Gräber durchwühlt werden,
وإذا القبور بعثرت
And when the graves are laid open,

O man! What has made you careless about your Lord, the Most Generous?
O Mensch, was hat dich hinsichtlich deines edelmütigen Herrn getäuscht,

O man! what has beguiled you from your Lord, the Gracious one,
Who created you, fashioned you perfectly, and gave you due proportion.
Der dich erschaffen und da(bei) zurechtgeformt und wohlgebildet gemacht hat.
الذي خلقك فسواك فعدلك
Who created you, then made you complete, then made you symmetrical?
In whatever form He willed, He put you together.
und dich, in welcher Gestalt Er wollte, zusammengefügt hat?
في أي صورة ما شاء ركبك

Nay! But you deny Ad-Din (i.e. the Day of Recompense).

Über euch sind wahrlich Hüter (eingesetzt),
وإن عليكم لحافظين

Kiraman (Honourable) Katibin writing down (your deeds),

Und die Sittenlosen werden wahrlich in einem Höllenbrand sein,
وإن الفجار لفي جحيم
And most surely the wicked are in burning fire,
Therein they will enter, and taste its burning flame on the Day of Recompense,

يوم لا تملك نفس لنفس شيئا ۖ والأمر يومئذ لله
The day on which no soul shall control anything for (another) soul; and the command on that day shall be entirely Allah's.
