Chapter 104, 9 verses
Wehe jedem Stichler und Nörgler,
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ويل لكل همزة لمزة
Woe to every scorner and mocker
Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
der Besitz zusammenträgt und ihn zählt und immer wieder zählt,
الذي جمع مالا وعدده
Who collects wealth and [continuously] counts it.
Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,
wobei er meint, daß sein Besitz ihn ewig leben ließe!
يحسب أن ماله أخلده
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever!
Keineswegs! Er wird ganz gewiß in al-Hutama geworfen werden.
كلا ۖ لينبذن في الحطمة
No! He will surely be thrown into the Crusher.
By no means! He will be sure to be thrown into That which Breaks to Pieces,
Was läßt dich wissen, was al-Hutama ist?
وما أدراك ما الحطمة
And what can make you know what is the Crusher?
And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces?
(Sie ist) Allahs entfachtes Feuer,
نار الله الموقدة
It is the fire of Allah, [eternally] fueled,
(It is) the Fire of (the Wrath of) Allah kindled (to a blaze),
das Einblick in die Herzen gewinnt.
التي تطلع على الأفئدة
Which mounts directed at the hearts.
The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts:
Gewiß, es wird sie einschließen
إنها عليهم مؤصدة
Indeed, Hellfire will be closed down upon them
It shall be made into a vault over them,
in langgestreckten Säulen.
في عمد ممددة
In extended columns.
In columns outstretched.
