Chapter 104, 9 verses
Wehe jedem Stichler und Nörgler,
Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ وَيْلٌ لِّكُلِّ هُمَزَةٍ لُّمَزَةٍ
der Besitz zusammenträgt und ihn zählt und immer wieder zählt,
Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,
الَّذِي جَمَعَ مَالًا وَعَدَّدَهُ
wobei er meint, daß sein Besitz ihn ewig leben ließe!
Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever!
يَحْسَبُ أَنَّ مَالَهُ أَخْلَدَهُ
Keineswegs! Er wird ganz gewiß in al-Hutama geworfen werden.
By no means! He will be sure to be thrown into That which Breaks to Pieces,
كَلَّا ۖ لَيُنبَذَنَّ فِي الْحُطَمَةِ
Was läßt dich wissen, was al-Hutama ist?
And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces?
وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الْحُطَمَةُ
(Sie ist) Allahs entfachtes Feuer,
(It is) the Fire of (the Wrath of) Allah kindled (to a blaze),
نَارُ اللَّهِ الْمُوقَدَةُ
das Einblick in die Herzen gewinnt.
The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts:
الَّتِي تَطَّلِعُ عَلَى الْأَفْئِدَةِ
Gewiß, es wird sie einschließen
It shall be made into a vault over them,
إِنَّهَا عَلَيْهِم مُّؤْصَدَةٌ
in langgestreckten Säulen.
In columns outstretched.
فِي عَمَدٍ مُّمَدَّدَةٍ
