Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
Woe to every scorner and mocker
Waylun likulli humazatin lumazatin
Wehe jedem Stichler und Nörgler,
Chapter 104, 9 verses
Woe to every (kind of) scandal - monger and - backbiter,
Woe to every scorner and mocker
Waylun likulli humazatin lumazatin
Wehe jedem Stichler und Nörgler,
Who pileth up wealth and layeth it by,
Who collects wealth and [continuously] counts it.
Allathee jamaAAa malan waAAaddadahu
der Besitz zusammenträgt und ihn zählt und immer wieder zählt,
Thinking that his wealth would make him last for ever!
He thinks that his wealth will make him immortal.
Yahsabu anna malahu akhladahu
wobei er meint, daß sein Besitz ihn ewig leben ließe!
By no means! He will be sure to be thrown into That which Breaks to Pieces,
No! He will surely be thrown into the Crusher.
Kalla layunbathanna fee alhutamati
Keineswegs! Er wird ganz gewiß in al-Hutama geworfen werden.
And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces?
And what can make you know what is the Crusher?
Wama adraka ma alhutamatu
Was läßt dich wissen, was al-Hutama ist?
(It is) the Fire of (the Wrath of) Allah kindled (to a blaze),
It is the fire of Allah, [eternally] fueled,
Naru Allahi almooqadatu
(Sie ist) Allahs entfachtes Feuer,
The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts:
Which mounts directed at the hearts.
Allatee tattaliAAu AAala alafidati
das Einblick in die Herzen gewinnt.
It shall be made into a vault over them,
Indeed, Hellfire will be closed down upon them
lnnaha AAalayhim musadatun
Gewiß, es wird sie einschließen
In columns outstretched.
In extended columns.
Fee AAamadin mumaddadatin
in langgestreckten Säulen.
