Chapter 104, 9 verses
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Woe to every slanderer and backbiter.
Wehe jedem Stichler und Nörgler,
Woe to every slanderer, defamer,
Who has gathered wealth and counted it.
der Besitz zusammenträgt und ihn zählt und immer wieder zählt,
Who amasses wealth and considers it a provision (against mishap);
He thinks that his wealth will make him last forever!
wobei er meint, daß sein Besitz ihn ewig leben ließe!

Nay! Verily, he will be thrown into the crushing Fire.
Keineswegs! Er wird ganz gewiß in al-Hutama geworfen werden.
Nay! he shall most certainly be hurled into the crushing disaster,
And what will make you know what the crushing Fire is?
Was läßt dich wissen, was al-Hutama ist?
And what will make you realize what the crushing disaster is?
The fire of Allah kindled,
(Sie ist) Allahs entfachtes Feuer,
It is the fire kindled by Allah,
Which leaps up over the hearts,
das Einblick in die Herzen gewinnt.
Which rises above the hearts.
Verily, it shall be closed upon them,
Gewiß, es wird sie einschließen
Surely it shall be closed over upon them,
In pillars stretched forth (i.e. they will be punished in the Fire with pillars).
in langgestreckten Säulen.
In extended columns.
