Beim Himmel mit den Türmen
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. By the heaven holding the big stars.
I swear by the mansions of the stars,
وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلْبُرُوجِ

und dem Zeugen und dem Bezeugten!
And by the Witnessing day (i.e. Friday), and by the Witnessed day [i.e. the day of 'Arafat (Hajj) the ninth of Dhul-Hijjah];

des Feuers mit dem (vielen) Brennstoff,
Of fire fed with fuel,
Of the fire (kept burning) with fuel,
ٱلنَّارِ ذَاتِ ٱلْوَقُودِ
als sie daran saßen
When they sat by it (fire),
When they sat by it,
إِذْ هُمْ عَلَيْهَا قُعُودٌ
und Zeugen dessen waren, was sie den Gläubigen antaten.
And they witnessed what they were doing against the believers (i.e. burning them).

وَهُمْ عَلَىٰ مَا يَفْعَلُونَ بِٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ شُهُودٌ
