Chapter 101, 11 verses
The Striking Calamity -
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. The Calamity!
Das Verhängnis!
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم القارعة
What is the Striking Calamity?
What is the Calamity ?
Was ist das Verhängnis?
ما القارعة
And what can make you know what is the Striking Calamity?
Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Calamity is!
Und was läßt dich wissen, was das Verhängnis ist?
وما أدراك ما القارعة
It is the Day when people will be like moths, dispersed,
A day wherein mankind will be as thickly - scattered moths
Am Tag, da die Menschen wie flatternde Motten sein werden
يوم يكون الناس كالفراش المبثوث
And the mountains will be like wool, fluffed up.
And the mountains will become as carded wool.
und die Berge wie zerflockte gefärbte Wolle sein werden.
وتكون الجبال كالعهن المنفوش
Then as for one whose scales are heavy [with good deeds],
Then, as for him whose scales are heavy (with good works),
Was nun jemanden angeht, dessen Waagschalen schwer sind,
فأما من ثقلت موازينه
He will be in a pleasant life.
He will live a pleasant life.
so wird er in einem zufriedenen Leben sein.
فهو في عيشة راضية
But as for one whose scales are light,
But as for him whose scales are light,
Was aber jemanden angeht, dessen Waagschalen leicht sind,
وأما من خفت موازينه
His refuge will be an abyss.
A bereft and Hungry One will be his mother,
dessen Mutter wird ein Abgrund sein.
فأمه هاوية
And what can make you know what that is?
Ah, what will convey unto thee what she is! -
Und was läßt dich wissen, was das ist?
وما أدراك ما هيه
It is a Fire, intensely hot.
Raging Fire.
Ein sehr heißes Feuer.
نار حامية
