(Er,) Der den Tod und das Leben erschaffen hat, damit Er euch prüfe, wer von euch die besten Taten begeht. Und Er ist der Allmächtige und Allvergebende.
Yusuf Ali
He Who created Death and Life, that He may try which of you is best in deed: and He is the Exalted in Might, Oft - Forgiving; -
Saheeh International
[And] who created seven heavens in layers. You do not see in the creation of the Most Merciful any inconsistency. So return [your] vision [to the sky]; do you see any breaks?
(Er,) Der sieben Himmel in Schichten (übereinander) erschaffen hat. Du kannst in der Schöpfung des Allerbarmers keine Ungesetzmäßigkeit sehen. Wende den Blick zurück: Siehst du irgendwelche Risse?
Yusuf Ali
He Who created the seven heavens one above another: No want of proportion wilt thou see in the Creation of (Allah) Most Gracious. So turn thy vision again: seest thou any flaw?
Saheeh International
Then return [your] vision twice again. [Your] vision will return to you humbled while it is fatigued.
Hierauf wende den Blick wiederholt zurück. Der Blick wird zu dir erfolglos und ermüdet zurückkehren.
Yusuf Ali
Again turn thy vision a second time: (thy) vision will come back to thee dull and discomfited, in a state worn out.
Saheeh International
And We have certainly beautified the nearest heaven with stars and have made [from] them what is thrown at the devils and have prepared for them the punishment of the Blaze.
Wir haben ja den untersten Himmel mit Lampen geschmückt und haben sie zu Wurfgeschossen gegen die Satane gemacht. Und bereitet haben Wir für sie die Strafe der Feuerglut.
Yusuf Ali
And we have, (from of old), adorned the lowest heaven with Lamps, and We have made such (Lamps) (as) missiles to drive away the Evil Ones, and have prepared for them the Penalty of the Blazing Fire.
Saheeh International
And for those who disbelieved in their Lord is the punishment of Hell, and wretched is the destination.
Beinahe würde sie vor Grimm bersten. Jedesmal, wenn eine Schar hineingeworfen wird, werden ihre Wärter sie fragen: "Ist zu euch denn kein Warner gekommen?"
Yusuf Ali
Almost bursting with fury: Every time a Group is cast therein, its Keepers will ask, "Did no Warner come to you?"
Saheeh International
They will say," Yes, a warner had come to us, but we denied and said, 'Allah has not sent down anything. You are not but in great error.'"
Sie werden sagen: "Ja doch, zu uns kam bereits ein Warner; aber wir haben (ihn) der Lüge bezichtigt und gesagt: , Allah hat nichts offenbart; ihr befindet euch nur in großem Irrtum'."
Yusuf Ali
They will say: "Yes indeed; a Warner did come to us, but we rejected him and said, 'Allah never sent down any (Message): ye are nothing but an egregious delusion!'"
Saheeh International
And they will say, "If only we had been listening or reasoning, we would not be among the companions of the Blaze."
Er ist es, Der euch die Erde fügsam gemacht hat. So geht auf ihrem Rücken einher und eßt von dem, womit Er (euch) versorgt. Und zu Ihm wird die Auferstehung sein.
Yusuf Ali
It is He Who has made the earth manageable for you, so traverse ye through its tracts and enjoy of the Sustenance which He furnishes: but unto Him is the Resurrection.
Saheeh International
Do you feel secure that He who [holds authority] in the heaven would not cause the earth to swallow you and suddenly it would sway?
Glaubt ihr in Sicherheit davor zu sein, daß Wer im Himmel ist, die Erde mit euch versinken läßt, so daß sie sich dann hin und her bewegt?
Yusuf Ali
Do ye feel secure that He Who is in heaven will not cause you to be swallowed up by the earth when it shakes (as in an earthquake)?
Saheeh International
Or do you feel secure that He who [holds authority] in the heaven would not send against you a storm of stones? Then you would know how [severe] was My warning.
Oder glaubt ihr euch in Sicherheit davor, daß Wer im Himmel ist, gegen euch einen Sturm von Steinchen sendet? Dann werdet ihr (noch) erfahren, wie Meine Warnung ist.
Yusuf Ali
Or do ye feel secure that He Who is in Heaven will not send against you a violent tornado (with showers of stones), so that ye shall know how (terrible) was My warning?
Saheeh International
And already had those before them denied, and how [terrible] was My reproach.
Auch diejenigen, die vor ihnen waren, haben bereits (die Gesandten) der Lüge bezichtigt. Wie war da Meine Mißbilligung!
Yusuf Ali
But indeed men before them rejected (My warning): then how (terrible) was My rejection (of them)?
Saheeh International
Do they not see the birds above them with wings outspread and [sometimes] folded in? None holds them [aloft] except the Most Merciful. Indeed He is, of all things, Seeing.
Sehen sie denn nicht auf die Vögel über ihnen, wie sie ihre Flügel ausgebreitet halten und einziehen? Nur der Allerbarmer hält sie. Gewiß, Er sieht alles wohl.
Yusuf Ali
Do they not observe the birds above them, spreading their wings and folding them in? None can uphold them except (Allah) Most Gracious: Truly (Allah) Most Gracious: Truly it is He that watches over all things.
Saheeh International
Or who is it that could be an army for you to aid you other than the Most Merciful? The disbelievers are not but in delusion.
Oder wer ist denn dieser, der euch versorgen (sollte), wenn Er Seine Versorgung zurückhält? Aber nein! Sie fahren weiter in Auflehnung und Abneigung.
Yusuf Ali
Or who is there that can provide you with Sustenance if He were to withhold His provision? Nay, they obstinately persist in insolent impiety and flight (from the Truth).
Saheeh International
Then is one who walks fallen on his face better guided or one who walks erect on a straight path?
Sag: Er ist es, Der euch hat entstehen lassen und euch Gehör, Augenlicht und Herzen gemacht hat. Wie wenig ihr dankbar seid!
Yusuf Ali
Say: "It is He Who has created you (and made you grow), and made for you the faculties of hearing, seeing, feeling and understanding: little thanks it is ye give.
Saheeh International
Say, "It is He who has multiplied you throughout the earth, and to Him you will be gathered."
Sag: Nur Allah weiß (darüber) Bescheid. Und ich bin nur ein deutlicher Warner.
Yusuf Ali
Say: "As to the knowledge of the time, it is with Allah alone: I am (sent) only to warn plainly in public."
Saheeh International
But when they see it approaching, the faces of those who disbelieve will be distressed, and it will be said, "This is that for which you used to call."
Wenn sie es aber nahe (bei sich) sehen, dann werden die Gesichter derjenigen, die ungläubig sind, böse betroffen sein. Und es wird gesagt werden: "Das ist das, was ihr stets herbeizurufen wünschtet."
Yusuf Ali
At length, when they see it close at hand, grieved will be the faces of the Unbelievers, and it will be said (to them): "This is (the promise fulfilled), which ye were calling for!"
Saheeh International
Say, [O Muhammad], "Have you considered: whether Allah should cause my death and those with me or have mercy upon us, who can protect the disbelievers from a painful punishment?"
Sag: Was meint ihr, wenn Allah mich und wer mit mir ist, vernichten oder wenn Er Sich unser erbarmen sollte, wer wird dann den Ungläubigen Schutz vor schmerzhafter Strafe gewähren?
Yusuf Ali
Say: "See ye? - If Allah were to destroy me, and those with me, or if He bestows His Mercy on us, - yet who can deliver the Unbelievers from a grievous Penalty?"
Saheeh International
Say, "He is the Most Merciful; we have believed in Him, and upon Him we have relied. And you will [come to] know who it is that is in clear error."
Sag: Er ist der Allerbarmer. Wir glauben an Ihn, und auf Ihn verlassen wir uns. Ihr werdet (noch) erfahren, wer sich in deutlichem Irrtum befindet.
Yusuf Ali
Say: "He is (Allah) Most Gracious: We have believed in Him, and on Him have we put our trust: So, soon will ye know which (of us) it is that is in manifest error."
Saheeh International
Say, "Have you considered: if your water was to become sunken [into the earth], then who could bring you flowing water?"
