Chapter 100, 11 verses
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. By the (steeds) that run, with panting.
Bei den schnaubend Rennenden,
I swear by the runners breathing pantingly,
Striking sparks of fire (by their hooves).
den (mit ihren Hufen) Funken Schlagenden,
Then those that produce fire striking,
And scouring to the raid at dawn.
den am Morgen Angreifenden,
Then those that make raids at morn,
And raise the dust in clouds the while.
die darin Staub aufwirbeln,
Then thereby raise dust,
And penetrating forthwith as one into the midst (of the foe).
die dann mitten in die Ansammlung eindringen!
Then rush thereby upon an assembly:
Verily, man () is ungrateful to his Lord.
Der Mensch ist seinem Herrn gegenüber wahrlich undankbar,
Most surely man is ungrateful to his Lord.
And to that he bears witness (by his deeds).
und er (selbst) ist darüber wahrlich Zeuge.
And most surely he is a witness of that.
And verily, he is violent in the love of wealth.
Und er ist in seiner Liebe zum (eigenen) Besten wahrlich heftig.

Knows he not that when the contents of the graves are poured forth (all mankind is resurrected)?
Weiß er denn nicht? Wenn durchwühlt wird, was in den Gräbern ist,
Does he not then know when what is in the graves is raised,
And that which is in the breasts (of men) is made known?
und herausgeholt wird, was in den Brüsten ist,...
And what is in the breasts is made apparent?
Verily, that Day (i.e. the Day of Resurrection) their Lord will be Well-Acquainted with them (as to their deeds and will reward them for their deeds).
ihr Herr wird an jenem Tag ihrer wahrlich Kundig sein.
Most surely their Lord that day shall be fully aware of them.
