By the Sky and the Night - Visitant (therein); -
I swear by the heaven and the comer by night;
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والسماء والطارق
Beim Himmel und dem Pochenden!
وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلطَّارِقِ
Chapter 86, 17 verses
By the Sky and the Night - Visitant (therein); -
I swear by the heaven and the comer by night;
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والسماء والطارق
Beim Himmel und dem Pochenden!
وَٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلطَّارِقِ
And what will explain to thee what the Night - Visitant is? -
And what will make you know what the comer by night is?
وما أدراك ما الطارق
Und was läßt dich wissen, was der Pochende ist?
وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا ٱلطَّارِقُ
(It is) the Star of piercing brightness; -
The star of piercing brightness;
النجم الثاقب
(Es ist) der durchbohrend helle Stem.
ٱلنَّجْمُ ٱلثَّاقِبُ
There is no soul but has a protector over it.
There is not a soul but over it is a keeper.
إن كل نفس لما عليها حافظ
Es gibt keine Seele, über der nicht ein Hüter (eingesetzt) ist.
إِن كُلُّ نَفْسٍ لَّمَّا عَلَيْهَا حَافِظٌ
Now let man but think from what he is created!
So let man consider of what he is created:
فلينظر الإنسان مم خلق
So soll der Mensch doch hinsehen, woraus er erschaffen ist.
فَلْيَنظُرِ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ مِمَّ خُلِقَ
He is created from a drop emitted -
He is created of water pouring forth,
خلق من ماء دافق
Er ist aus sich ergießendem Wasser erschaffen,
خُلِقَ مِن مَّآءٍ دَافِقٍ
Proceeding from between the backbone and the ribs:
Coming from between the back and the ribs.
يخرج من بين الصلب والترائب
das zwischen der Lende und der (weiblichen) Brust hervorkommt.
يَخْرُجُ مِنۢ بَيْنِ ٱلصُّلْبِ وَٱلتَّرَآئِبِ
Surely (Allah) is able to bring him back (to life)!
Most surely He is able to return him (to life).
إنه على رجعه لقادر
Er hat die Macht dazu, ihn zurückkehren zu lassen,
إِنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ رَجْعِهِۦ لَقَادِرٌ
The Day that (all) things secret will be tested,
On the day when hidden things shall be made manifest,
يوم تبلى السرائر
am Tag, da die geheimsten Gedanken geprüft werden.
يَوْمَ تُبْلَى ٱلسَّرَآئِرُ
(Man) will have no power, and no helper.
He shall have neither strength nor helper.
فما له من قوة ولا ناصر
Dann hat er weder Kraft noch einen Helfer.
فَمَا لَهُۥ مِن قُوَّةٍ وَلَا نَاصِرٍ
By the Firmament which returns (in its round),
I swear by the raingiving heavens,
والسماء ذات الرجع
Beim Himmel mit der Wiederkehr
وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلرَّجْعِ
And by the Earth which opens out (for the gushing of springs or the sprouting of vegetation), -
And the earth splitting (with plants);
والأرض ذات الصدع
und der Erde mit ihren Sprüngen!
وَٱلْأَرْضِ ذَاتِ ٱلصَّدْعِ
Behold this is the Word that distinguishes (Good from Evil):
Most surely it is a decisive word,
إنه لقول فصل
Er ist wahrlich ein entscheidendes Wort;
إِنَّهُۥ لَقَوْلٌ فَصْلٌ
It is not a thing for amusement.
And it is no joke.
وما هو بالهزل
er ist kein Scherz.
وَمَا هُوَ بِٱلْهَزْلِ
As for them, they are but plotting a scheme,
Surely they will make a scheme,
إنهم يكيدون كيدا
Sie wenden eine List an,
إِنَّهُمْ يَكِيدُونَ كَيْدًا
And I am planning a scheme.
And I (too) will make a scheme.
وأكيد كيدا
Und Ich wende eine List an.
وَأَكِيدُ كَيْدًا
Therefore grant a delay to the Unbelievers: Give respite to them gently (for awhile).
So grant the unbelievers a respite: let them alone for a while.
فمهل الكافرين أمهلهم رويدا
So lasse den Ungläubigen noch Zeit; lasse ihnen nur eine Weile Zeit.
فَمَهِّلِ ٱلْكَٰفِرِينَ أَمْهِلْهُمْ رُوَيْدًۢا
