Chapter 101, 11 verses
Das Verhängnis!
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ الْقَارِعَةُ
The Striking Calamity -
ٱلْقَارِعَةُ
Was ist das Verhängnis?
مَا الْقَارِعَةُ
What is the Striking Calamity?
مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ
Und was läßt dich wissen, was das Verhängnis ist?
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الْقَارِعَةُ
And what can make you know what is the Striking Calamity?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ
Am Tag, da die Menschen wie flatternde Motten sein werden
يَوْمَ يَكُونُ النَّاسُ كَالْفَرَاشِ الْمَبْثُوثِ
It is the Day when people will be like moths, dispersed,
يَوْمَ يَكُونُ ٱلنَّاسُ كَٱلْفَرَاشِ ٱلْمَبْثُوثِ
und die Berge wie zerflockte gefärbte Wolle sein werden.
وَتَكُونُ الْجِبَالُ كَالْعِهْنِ الْمَنفُوشِ
And the mountains will be like wool, fluffed up.
وَتَكُونُ ٱلْجِبَالُ كَٱلْعِهْنِ ٱلْمَنفُوشِ
Was nun jemanden angeht, dessen Waagschalen schwer sind,
فَأَمَّا مَن ثَقُلَتْ مَوَازِينُهُ
Then as for one whose scales are heavy [with good deeds],
فَأَمَّا مَن ثَقُلَتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ
so wird er in einem zufriedenen Leben sein.
فَهُوَ فِي عِيشَةٍ رَّاضِيَةٍ
He will be in a pleasant life.
فَهُوَ فِى عِيشَةٍ رَّاضِيَةٍ
Was aber jemanden angeht, dessen Waagschalen leicht sind,
وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَازِينُهُ
But as for one whose scales are light,
وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ
dessen Mutter wird ein Abgrund sein.
فَأُمُّهُ هَاوِيَةٌ
His refuge will be an abyss.
فَأُمُّهُۥ هَاوِيَةٌ
Und was läßt dich wissen, was das ist?
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا هِيَهْ
And what can make you know what that is?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا هِيَهْ
Ein sehr heißes Feuer.
نَارٌ حَامِيَةٌ
It is a Fire, intensely hot.
نَارٌ حَامِيَةٌۢ
