The Striking Calamity -
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Al-Qari'ah (the striking Hour i.e. the Day of Resurrection).
Das Verhängnis!
ٱلْقَارِعَةُ
What is the Striking Calamity?
What is the striking (Hour)?
Was ist das Verhängnis?
مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ
And what can make you know what is the Striking Calamity?
And what will make you know what the striking (Hour) is?
Und was läßt dich wissen, was das Verhängnis ist?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلْقَارِعَةُ
It is the Day when people will be like moths, dispersed,
It is a Day whereon mankind will be like moths scattered about.
Am Tag, da die Menschen wie flatternde Motten sein werden
يَوْمَ يَكُونُ ٱلنَّاسُ كَٱلْفَرَاشِ ٱلْمَبْثُوثِ
And the mountains will be like wool, fluffed up.
And the mountains will be like carded wool.
und die Berge wie zerflockte gefärbte Wolle sein werden.
وَتَكُونُ ٱلْجِبَالُ كَٱلْعِهْنِ ٱلْمَنفُوشِ
Then as for one whose scales are heavy [with good deeds],
Then as for him whose balance (of good deeds) will be heavy,
Was nun jemanden angeht, dessen Waagschalen schwer sind,
فَأَمَّا مَن ثَقُلَتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ
He will be in a pleasant life.
He will live a pleasant life (in Paradise).
so wird er in einem zufriedenen Leben sein.
فَهُوَ فِى عِيشَةٍ رَّاضِيَةٍ
But as for one whose scales are light,
But as for him whose balance (of good deeds) will be light,
Was aber jemanden angeht, dessen Waagschalen leicht sind,
وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَفَّتْ مَوَٰزِينُهُۥ
His refuge will be an abyss.
He will have his home in Hawiyah (pit, i.e. Hell).
dessen Mutter wird ein Abgrund sein.
فَأُمُّهُۥ هَاوِيَةٌ
And what can make you know what that is?
And what will make you know what it is?
Und was läßt dich wissen, was das ist?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا هِيَهْ
It is a Fire, intensely hot.
(It is) a fiercely blazing Fire!
Ein sehr heißes Feuer.
نَارٌ حَامِيَةٌۢ
