Chapter 82, 19 verses
When the sky breaks apart
Itha alssamao infatarat
Wenn der Himmel zerbricht
When the heaven becomes cleft asunder,
And when the stars fall, scattering,
Waitha alkawakibu intatharat
und wenn die Sterne sich zerstreuen
And when the stars become dispersed,
And when the seas are erupted
Waitha albiharu fujjirat
und wenn die Meere gesprengt werden
And when the seas are made to flow forth,
And when the [contents of] graves are scattered,
Waitha alqubooru buAAthirat
und wenn die Gräber durchwühlt werden,
And when the graves are laid open,
A soul will [then] know what it has put forth and kept back.
AAalimat nafsun ma qaddamat waakhkharat
wird eine (jede) Seele erfahren, was sie vorausgeschickt und zurückgestellt hat.
Every soul shall know what it has sent before and held back.
O mankind, what has deceived you concerning your Lord, the Generous,
Ya ayyuha alinsanu ma gharraka birabbika alkareemi
O Mensch, was hat dich hinsichtlich deines edelmütigen Herrn getäuscht,
O man! what has beguiled you from your Lord, the Gracious one,
Who created you, proportioned you, and balanced you?
Allathee khalaqaka fasawwaka faAAadalaka
Der dich erschaffen und da(bei) zurechtgeformt und wohlgebildet gemacht hat.
Who created you, then made you complete, then made you symmetrical?
In whatever form He willed has He assembled you.
Fee ayyi sooratin ma shaa rakkabaka
und dich, in welcher Gestalt Er wollte, zusammengefügt hat?
Into whatever form He pleased He constituted you.
No! But you deny the Recompense.
Kalla bal tukaththiboona bialddeeni
Keineswegs! Vielmehr erklärt ihr das Gericht für Lüge.
Nay! but you give the lie to the judgment day,
And indeed, [appointed] over you are keepers,
Wainna AAalaykum lahafitheena
Über euch sind wahrlich Hüter (eingesetzt),
And most surely there are keepers over you
Noble and recording;
Kiraman katibeena
edle, die (alles) aufschreiben
Honorable recorders,
They know whatever you do.
YaAAlamoona ma tafAAaloona
und die wissen, was ihr tut.
They know what you do.
Indeed, the righteous will be in pleasure,
Inna alabrara lafee naAAeemin
Die Frommen werden wahrlich in Wonne sein.
Most surely the righteous are in bliss,
And indeed, the wicked will be in Hellfire.
Wainna alfujjara lafee jaheemin
Und die Sittenlosen werden wahrlich in einem Höllenbrand sein,
And most surely the wicked are in burning fire,
They will [enter to] burn therein on the Day of Recompense,
Yaslawnaha yawma alddeeni
dem sie am Tag des Gerichts ausgesetzt werden
They shall enter it on the day of judgment.
And never therefrom will they be absent.
Wama hum AAanha bighaibeena
und dem sie nicht abwesend sein werden.
And they shall by no means be absent from it.
And what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense?
Wama adraka ma yawmu alddeeni
Und was läßt dich wissen, was der Tag des Gerichts ist?
And what will make you realize what the day of judgment is?
Then, what can make you know what is the Day of Recompense?
Thumma ma adraka ma yawmu alddeeni
Abermals: Was läßt dich wissen, was der Tag des Gerichts ist?
Again, what will make you realize what the day of judgment is?
It is the Day when a soul will not possess for another soul [power to do] a thing; and the command, that Day, is [entirely] with Allah.
Yawma la tamliku nafsun linafsin shayan waalamru yawmaithin lillahi
Am Tag, da keine Seele für eine (andere) Seele etwas (auszurichten) vermag; und der Befehl wird an jenem Tag Allah (allein) zustehen.
The day on which no soul shall control anything for (another) soul; and the command on that day shall be entirely Allah's.
