Chapter 101, 11 verses
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Al-Qari'ah (the striking Hour i.e. the Day of Resurrection).
The Striking Calamity -
Das Verhängnis!
ٱلْقَارِعَةُ
What is the striking (Hour)?
What is the Striking Calamity?
Was ist das Verhängnis?
مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ
And what will make you know what the striking (Hour) is?
And what can make you know what is the Striking Calamity?
Und was läßt dich wissen, was das Verhängnis ist?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ
It is a Day whereon mankind will be like moths scattered about.
It is the Day when people will be like moths, dispersed,
Am Tag, da die Menschen wie flatternde Motten sein werden
يَوْمَ يَكُونُ ٱلنَّاسُ كَٱلْفَرَاشِ ٱلْمَبْثُوثِ
And the mountains will be like carded wool.
And the mountains will be like wool, fluffed up.
und die Berge wie zerflockte gefärbte Wolle sein werden.
وَتَكُونُ ٱلْجِبَالُ كَٱلْعِهْنِ ٱلْمَنفُوشِ
Then as for him whose balance (of good deeds) will be heavy,
Then as for one whose scales are heavy [with good deeds],
Was nun jemanden angeht, dessen Waagschalen schwer sind,
فَأَمَّا مَن ثَقُلَتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ
He will live a pleasant life (in Paradise).
He will be in a pleasant life.
so wird er in einem zufriedenen Leben sein.
فَهُوَ فِى عِيشَةٍ رَّاضِيَةٍ
But as for him whose balance (of good deeds) will be light,
But as for one whose scales are light,
Was aber jemanden angeht, dessen Waagschalen leicht sind,
وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ
He will have his home in Hawiyah (pit, i.e. Hell).
His refuge will be an abyss.
dessen Mutter wird ein Abgrund sein.
فَأُمُّهُۥ هَاوِيَةٌ
And what will make you know what it is?
And what can make you know what that is?
Und was läßt dich wissen, was das ist?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا هِيَهْ
(It is) a fiercely blazing Fire!
It is a Fire, intensely hot.
Ein sehr heißes Feuer.
نَارٌ حَامِيَةٌۢ
