Chapter 104, 9 verses
Wehe jedem Stichler und Nörgler,
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto every slandering traducer,
Woe to every scorner and mocker
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم ويل لكل همزة لمزة
der Besitz zusammenträgt und ihn zählt und immer wieder zählt,
Who hath gathered wealth (of this world) and arranged it.
Who collects wealth and [continuously] counts it.
الذي جمع مالا وعدده
wobei er meint, daß sein Besitz ihn ewig leben ließe!
He thinketh that his wealth will render him immortal.

يحسب أن ماله أخلده
Keineswegs! Er wird ganz gewiß in al-Hutama geworfen werden.
Nay, but verily he will be flung to the Consuming One.
No! He will surely be thrown into the Crusher.
كلا ۖ لينبذن في الحطمة
Was läßt dich wissen, was al-Hutama ist?
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Consuming One is!
And what can make you know what is the Crusher?
وما أدراك ما الحطمة
(Sie ist) Allahs entfachtes Feuer,
(It is) the fire of Allah, kindled,
It is the fire of Allah, [eternally] fueled,
نار الله الموقدة
das Einblick in die Herzen gewinnt.
Which leapeth up over the hearts (of men).
Which mounts directed at the hearts.
التي تطلع على الأفئدة
Gewiß, es wird sie einschließen
Lo! it is closed in on them
Indeed, Hellfire will be closed down upon them
إنها عليهم مؤصدة
in langgestreckten Säulen.
In outstretched columns.
In extended columns.
في عمد ممددة
