(This is) a recital of the Mercy of thy Lord to His servant Zakariya.
[This is] a mention of the mercy of your Lord to His servant Zechariah
(Diese Verse sind) zum Gedenken an die Barmherzigkeit deines Herrn zu Seinem Diener Zakariyya.
Behold! he cried to his Lord in secret,
When he called to his Lord a private supplication.
Als er zu seinem Herrn im Verborgenen rief
Praying: "O my Lord! infirm indeed are my bones, and the hair of my head doth glisten with grey: but never am I unblest, O my Lord, in my prayer to Thee!
He said, "My Lord, indeed my bones have weakened, and my head has filled with white, and never have I been in my supplication to You, my Lord, unhappy.
(und) sagte: "Mein Herr, schwach sind mir die Knochen geworden, und in Altersgrauheit entfacht ist der Kopf. Und ich war im Bittgebet zu Dir, mein Herr, (noch) nie unglücklich.
"Now I fear (what) my relatives (and colleagues) (will do) after me: but my wife is barren: so give me an heir as from Thyself, -
And indeed, I fear the successors after me, and my wife has been barren, so give me from Yourself an heir
Gewiß, ich fürchte die Verwandten nach mir, und meine Frau ist unfruchtbar. So schenke mir von Dir aus einen nahen Verwandten,
"(One that) will (truly) represent me, and represent the posterity of Jacob; and make him, O my Lord! one with whom Thou art well - pleased!"
Who will inherit me and inherit from the family of Jacob. And make him, my Lord, pleasing [to You]."
der mich beerbt und von der Sippe Ya'qubs erbt, und mach ihn, mein Herr, (Dir) wohlgefällig."
(His prayer was answered): "O Zakariya! We give thee good news of a son: His name shall be Yahya: on none by that name have We conferred distinction before."
[He was told], "O Zechariah, indeed We give you good tidings of a boy whose name will be John. We have not assigned to any before [this] name."
O Zakariyya, Wir verkünden dir einen Jungen, dessen Name Yahya ist, wie Wir zuvor noch niemandem Kennzeichen gleich den seinen gegeben haben.
He said: "O my Lord! How shall I have a son, when my wife is barren and I have grown quite decrepit from old age?"
He said, "My Lord, how will I have a boy when my wife has been barren and I have reached extreme old age?"
Er sagte: "Mein Herr, wie soll ich einen Jungen haben, wo meine Frau unfruchtbar ist und ich vom hohen Alter bereits einen Dürrezustand erreicht habe?"
He said: "So (it will be) thy Lord saith, 'that is easy for Me: I did indeed create thee before, when thou hadst been nothing!'"
[An angel] said, "Thus [it will be]; your Lord says, 'It is easy for Me, for I created you before, while you were nothing.' "
Er sagte: "So wird es sein. Dein Herr sagt: ,Das ist Mir ein leichtes; und auch dich habe Ich ja zuvor erschaffen, als du noch nichts warst'."
(Zakariya) said: "O my Lord! give me a Sign.""Thy Sign," was the answer, "Shall be that thou shalt speak to no man for three nights, although thou art not dumb."
[Zechariah] said, "My Lord, make for me a sign." He said, "Your sign is that you will not speak to the people for three nights, [being] sound."
Er sagte: "Mein Herr, setze mir ein Zeichen." Er sagte: "Dein Zeichen ist, daß du drei Nächte lang, obwohl gesund, nicht zu den Menschen sprechen wirst."
So Zakariya came out to his people from him chamber: He told them by signs to celebrate Allah's praises in the morning and in the evening.
So he came out to his people from the prayer chamber and signaled to them to exalt [Allah] in the morning and afternoon.
So kam er zu seinem Volk aus dem Gebetsraum heraus und gab ihnen dann zu verstehen: "Preist morgens und abends."
(To his son came the command): "O Yahya! take hold of the Book with might": and We gave him Wisdom even as a youth,
[Allah] said, "O John, take the Scripture with determination." And We gave him judgement [while yet] a boy
"O Yahya, nimm die Schrift mit (aller) Kraft." Und Wir gaben ihm schon als Kind die Urteilskraft
And piety (for all creatures) as from Us, and purity: He was devout,
And affection from Us and purity, and he was fearing of Allah
und Mitgefühl von Uns aus und Lauterkeit. Er war gottesfürchtig
And kind to his parents, and he was not overbearing or rebellious.
And dutiful to his parents, and he was not a disobedient tyrant.
und gütig gegen seine Eltern, und er war weder gewalttätig noch widerspenstig.
So Peace on him the day he was born, the day that he dies, and the day that he will be raised up to life (again)!
And peace be upon him the day he was born and the day he dies and the day he is raised alive.
Und Friede sei auf ihm am Tag, da er geboren wurde, und am Tag, da er stirbt, und am Tag, da er wieder zum Leben auferweckt wird.
Relate in the Book (the story of) Mary, when she withdrew from her family to a place in the East.
And mention, [O Muhammad], in the Book [the story of] Mary, when she withdrew from her family to a place toward the east.
Und gedenke im Buch Maryams, als sie sich von ihren Angehörigen an einen östlichen Ort zurückzog.
She placed a screen (to screen herself) from them; then We sent her our angel, and he appeared before her as a man in all respects.
And she took, in seclusion from them, a screen. Then We sent to her Our Angel, and he represented himself to her as a well - proportioned man.
Sie nahm sich einen Vorhang vor ihnen. Da sandten Wir Unseren Geist zu ihr. Er stellte sich ihr als wohlgestaltetes menschliches Wesen dar.
She said: "I seek refuge from thee to (Allah) Most Gracious: (come not near) if thou dost fear Allah."
She said, "Indeed, I seek refuge in the Most Merciful from you, [so leave me], if you should be fearing of Allah."
Sie sagte: "Ich suche beim Allerbarmer Schutz vor dir, wenn du gottesfürchtig bist."
He said: "Nay, I am only a messenger from thy Lord, (to announce) to thee the gift of a holy son.
He said, "I am only the messenger of your Lord to give you [news of] a pure boy."
Er sagte: "Ich bin nur der Gesandte deines Herrn, um dir einen lauteren Jungen zu schenken."
She said: "How shall I have a son, seeing that no man has touched me, and I am not unchaste?"
She said, "How can I have a boy while no man has touched me and I have not been unchaste?"
Sie sagte: "Wie soll mir ein Junge gegeben werden, wo mich doch kein menschliches Wesen berührt hat und ich keine Hure bin."
He said: "So (it will be): Thy Lord saith, 'that is easy for Me: and (We wish) to appoint him as a Sign unto men and a Mercy from Us': It is a matter (so) decreed."
He said, "Thus [it will be]; your Lord says, 'It is easy for Me, and We will make him a sign to the people and a mercy from Us. And it is a matter [already] decreed.' "
Er sagte: "So wird es sein. Dein Herr sagt: ,Das ist Mir ein leichtes, und damit Wir ihn zu einem Zeichen für die Menschen und zu einer Barmherzigkeit von Uns machen'. Und es ist eine beschlossene Angelegenheit."
So she conceived him, and she retired with him to a remote place.
So she conceived him, and she withdrew with him to a remote place.
So empfing sie ihn und zog sich mit ihm zu einem fernen Ort zurück.
And the pains of childbirth drove her to the trunk of a palm - tree: She cried (in her anguish): "Ah! would that I had died before this! would that I had been a thing forgotten and out of sight!"
And the pains of childbirth drove her to the trunk of a palm tree. She said, "Oh, I wish I had died before this and was in oblivion, forgotten."
Die Wehen ließen sie zum Palmenstamm gehen. Sie sagte: "O wäre ich doch zuvor gestorben und ganz und gar in Vergessenheit geraten!"
But (a voice) cried to her from beneath the (palm - tree): "Grieve not! for thy Lord hath provided a rivulet beneath thee;
But he called her from below her, "Do not grieve; your Lord has provided beneath you a stream.
Da rief er ihr von unten her zu: "Sei nicht traurig; dein Herr hat ja unter dir ein Bächlein geschaffen.
"And shake towards thyself the trunk of the palm - tree: It will let fall fresh ripe dates upon thee.
And shake toward you the trunk of the palm tree; it will drop upon you ripe, fresh dates.
Und schüttle zu dir den Palmenstamm, so läßt er frische, reife Datteln auf dich herabfallen.
"So eat and drink and cool (thine) eye. And if thou dost see any man, say, 'I have vowed a fast to (Allah) Most Gracious, and this day will I enter into not talk with any human being'"
So eat and drink and be contented. And if you see from among humanity anyone, say, 'Indeed, I have vowed to the Most Merciful abstention, so I will not speak today to [any] man.' "
So iß und trink und sei frohen Mutes'. Und wenn du nun jemanden von den Menschen sehen solltest, dann sag: Ich habe dem Allerbarmer Fasten gelobt, so werde ich heute mit keinem Menschenwesen sprechen."
At length she brought the (babe) to her people, carrying him (in her arms). They said: "O Mary! truly an amazing thing hast thou brought!
Then she brought him to her people, carrying him. They said, "O Mary, you have certainly done a thing unprecedented.
Dann kam sie mit ihm zu ihrem Volk, ihn (mit sich) tragend. Sie sagten: "O Maryam, du hast da ja etwas Unerhörtes begangen.
"O sister of Aaron! Thy father was not a man of evil, nor thy mother a woman unchaste!"
O sister of Aaron, your father was not a man of evil, nor was your mother unchaste."
O Schwester Haruns, dein Vater war doch kein sündiger Mann, noch war deine Mutter eine Hure."
But she pointed to the babe. They said: "How can we talk to one who is a child in the cradle?"
So she pointed to him. They said, "How can we speak to one who is in the cradle a child?"
Da zeigte sie auf ihn. Sie sagten: "Wie können wir mit jemandem sprechen, der noch ein Kind in der Wiege ist?"
He said: "I am indeed a servant of Allah: He hath given me revelation and made me a prophet;
[Jesus] said, "Indeed, I am the servant of Allah. He has given me the Scripture and made me a prophet.
Er sagte: "Ich bin wahrlich Allahs Diener; Er hat mir die Schrift gegeben und mich zu einem Propheten gemacht.
"And He hath made me blessed wheresoever I be, and hath enjoined on me Prayer and Charity as long as I live;
And He has made me blessed wherever I am and has enjoined upon me prayer and zakah as long as I remain alive
Und gesegnet hat Er mich gemacht, wo immer ich bin, und angeordnet hat Er mir, das Gebet (zu verrichten) und die Abgabe (zu entrichten), solange ich lebe,
"(He) hath made me kind to my mother, and not overbearing or miserable;
And [made me] dutiful to my mother, and He has not made me a wretched tyrant.
und gütig gegen meine Mutter zu sein. Und Er hat mich weder gewalttätig noch unglücklich gemacht.
"So peace is on me the day I was born, the day that I die, and the day that I shall be raised up to life (again)"!
And peace is on me the day I was born and the day I will die and the day I am raised alive."
Und der Friede sei auf mir am Tag, da ich geboren wurde, und am Tag, da ich sterbe, und am Tag da ich wieder zum Leben auferweckt werde."
Such (was) Jesus the son of Mary: (it is) a statement of truth, about which they (vainly) dispute.
That is Jesus, the son of Mary - the word of truth about which they are in dispute.
Das ist 'Isa, der Sohn Maryams: (Es ist) das Wort der Wahrheit, woran sie zweifeln.
It is not befitting to (the majesty of) Allah that He should beget a son. Glory be to Him! when He determines a matter, He only says to it, "Be", and it is.
It is not [befitting] for Allah to take a son; exalted is He! When He decrees an affair, He only says to it, "Be," and it is.
Es steht Allah nicht an, Sich ein Kind zu nehmen. Preis sei Ihm! Wenn Er eine Angelegenheit bestimmt, so sagt Er dazu nur: ,Sei!', und so ist es.
Verily Allah is my Lord and your Lord: Him therefore serve ye: this is a Way that is straight.
[Jesus said], "And indeed, Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. That is a straight path."
('Isa sagte:) "Und gewiß, Allah ist mein Herr und euer Herr; so dient Ihm. Das ist ein gerader Weg."
But the sects differ among themselves: and woe to the unbelievers because of the (coming) Judgment of a Momentous Day!
Then the factions differed [concerning Jesus] from among them, so woe to those who disbelieved - from the scene of a tremendous Day.
Doch die Gruppierungen wurden uneinig untereinander; dann wehe denjenigen, die ungläubig sind, vor dem Erleben eines gewaltigen Tages!
How plainly will they see and hear, the Day that they will appear before Us! but the unjust today are in error manifest!
How [clearly] they will hear and see the Day they come to Us, but the wrongdoers today are in clear error.
Wie vorzüglich werden sie hören und sehen am Tag, da sie zu Uns kommen werden! Aber die Ungerechten befinden sich heute in einem deutlichen Irrtum.
But warn them of the Day of Distress, when the matter will be determined: for (behold,) they are negligent and they do not believe!
And warn them, [O Muhammad], of the Day of Regret, when the matter will be concluded; and [yet], they are in [a state of] heedlessness, and they do not believe.
Warne sie vor dem Tag der gramvollen Reue, wenn die Angelegenheit entschieden sein wird, während sie (all dessen) unachtsam sind, und während sie (noch) nicht glauben.
It is We Who will inherit the earth, and all beings thereon: to Us will they all be returned.
Indeed, it is We who will inherit the earth and whoever is on it, and to Us they will be returned.
Gewiß, Wir sind es, die Wir die Erde und (all die,) die auf ihr sind, erben werden. Und zu Uns werden sie zurückgebracht.

Als er zu seinem Vater sagte: "O mein lieber Vater, warum dienst du dem, was nicht hört und nicht sieht und dir nichts nützt?
"O my father! to me hath come knowledge which hath not reached thee: so follow me: I will guide thee to a way that is even and straight.
O my father, indeed there has come to me of knowledge that which has not come to you, so follow me; I will guide you to an even path.
O mein lieber Vater, gewiß, zu mir ist vom Wissen gekommen, was nicht zu dir gekommen ist. So folge mir, dann leite ich dich einen ebenen Weg.
"O my father! serve not Satan: for Satan is a rebel against (Allah) Most Gracious.
O my father, do not worship Satan. Indeed Satan has ever been, to the Most Merciful, disobedient.
O mein lieber Vater, diene nicht dem Satan. Gewiß, der Satan ist gegen den Allerbarmer widerspenstig.
"O my father! I fear lest a Penalty afflict thee from (Allah) Most Gracious, so that thou become to Satan a friend."
O my father, indeed I fear that there will touch you a punishment from the Most Merciful so you would be to Satan a companion [in Hellfire]."
O mein lieber Vater, ich fürchte, daß dir Strafe vom Allerbarmer widerfährt, so daß du zu einem Gefolgsmann des Satans wirst."
(The father) replied: "Dost thou hate my gods, O Abraham? If thou forbear not, I will indeed stone thee: Now get away from me for a good long while!"
[His father] said, "Have you no desire for my gods, O Abraham? If you do not desist, I will surely stone you, so avoid me a prolonged time."
Er sagte: "Verschmähst du meine Götter, o Ibrahim? Wenn du nicht aufhörst, werde ich dich ganz gewiß steinigen. Und meide mich eine Zeitlang."
Abraham said: "Peace be on thee: I will pray to my Lord for thy forgiveness: for He is to me Most Gracious.
[Abraham] said, "Peace will be upon you. I will ask forgiveness for you of my Lord. Indeed, He is ever gracious to me.
Er sagte: "Friede sei auf dir! Ich werde meinen Herrn für dich um Vergebung bitten; gewiß, Er ist zu mir sehr entgegenkommend.
"And I will turn away from you (all) and from those whom ye invoke besides Allah: I will call on my Lord: perhaps, by my prayer to my Lord, I shall be not unblest."
And I will leave you and those you invoke other than Allah and will invoke my Lord. I expect that I will not be in invocation to my Lord unhappy."
Ich werde mich von euch und von dem, was ihr anstatt Allahs anruft, fernhalten und nur meinen Herrn anrufen. Vielleicht werde ich im Bittgebet zu meinem Herrn nicht unglücklich sein."
When he had turned away from them and from those whom they worshipped besides Allah, We bestowed on him Isaac and Jacob, and each one of them We made a prophet.
So when he had left them and those they worshipped other than Allah, We gave him Isaac and Jacob, and each [of them] We made a prophet.
Als er sich nun von ihnen und von dem, dem sie anstatt Allahs dienten, fernhielt, schenkten Wir ihm Ishaq und Ya'qub; und alle (beide) machten Wir zu Propheten.
And We bestowed of Our Mercy on them, and We granted them lofty honour on the tongue of truth.
And We gave them of Our mercy, and we made for them a reputation of high honor.
Und Wir schenkten ihnen (etwas) von Unserer Barmherzigkeit, und Wir verliehen ihnen einen hohen Ruf an Wahrhaftigkeit.

Wir riefen ihn von der rechten Seite des Berges und ließen ihn zu vertraulichem Gespräch näherkommen.

And mention in the Book, Ishmael. Indeed, he was true to his promise, and he was a messenger and a prophet.
Und gedenke im Buch Isma'ils. Gewiß, er war wahrhaftig in seinem Versprechen, und er war ein Gesandter und Prophet.
He used to enjoin on his people Prayer and Charity, and he was most acceptable in the sight of his Lord.
And he used to enjoin on his people prayer and zakah and was to his Lord pleasing.
Und er pflegte seinen Angehörigen das Gebet und die Abgabe zu befehlen, und er war seinem Herrn wohlgefällig.

Those were some of the prophets on whom Allah did bestow His Grace, - of the posterity of Adam, and of those who We carried (in the Ark) with Noah, and of the posterity of Abraham and Israel of those whom We guided and chose. Whenever the Signs of (Allah) Most Gracious were rehearsed to them, they would fall down in prostrate adoration and in tears.
Those were the ones upon whom Allah bestowed favor from among the prophets of the descendants of Adam and of those We carried [in the ship] with Noah, and of the descendants of Abraham and Israel, and of those whom We guided and chose. When the verses of the Most Merciful were recited to them, they fell in prostration and weeping.
Das sind diejenigen, denen Allah Gunst erwiesen hat, unter den Propheten aus der Nachkommenschaft Adams und von denjenigen, die Wir mit Nuh trugen, und aus der Nachkommenschaft Ibrahims und Isra'ils, und von denjenigen, die Wir rechtgeleitet und erwählt haben. Als ihnen die Zeichen des Allerbarmers verlesen wurden, fielen sie ehrerbietig und weinend nieder.
But after them there followed a posterity who missed prayers and followed after lusts soon, then, will they face Destruction, -
But there came after them successors who neglected prayer and pursued desires; so they are going to meet evil -
Dann folgten nach ihnen Nachfolger, die das Gebet vernachlässigten und den Begierden folgten. So werden sie (den Lohn für ihre) Verirrung vorfinden,
Except those who repent and believe, and work righteousness: for these will enter the Garden and will not be wronged in the least, -
Except those who repent, believe and do righteousness; for those will enter Paradise and will not be wronged at all.
außer demjenigen, der bereut und glaubt und rechtschaffen handelt. Jene werden in den (Paradies)garten eingehen und ihnen wird in nichts Unrecht zugefügt
Gardens of Eternity, those which (Allah) Most Gracious has promised to His servants in the Unseen: for His promise must (necessarily) come to pass.
[Therein are] gardens of perpetual residence which the Most Merciful has promised His servants in the unseen. Indeed, His promise has ever been coming.
in die Gärten Edens, die der Allerbarmer Seinen Dienern im Verborgenen versprochen hat. Sein Versprechen wird bestimmt erfüllt.
They will not there hear any vain discourse, but only salutations of Peace: And they will have therein their sustenance, morning and evening.
They will not hear therein any ill speech - only [greetings of] peace - and they will have their provision therein, morning and afternoon.
Sie hören darin keine unbedachte Rede, sondern nur: "Frieden!" Und sie haben darin ihre Versorgung morgens und abends.
Such is the Garden which We give as an inheritance to those of Our servants who guard against Evil.
That is Paradise, which We give as inheritance to those of Our servants who were fearing of Allah.
Das ist der (Paradies)garten, den Wir denjenigen von Unseren Dienern zum Erbe geben, die gottesfürchtig sind.
(The angels say:) "We descend not but by command of thy Lord: to Him belongeth what is before us and what is behind us, and what is between: and thy Lord never doth forget, -
[Gabriel said], "And we [angels] descend not except by the order of your Lord. To Him belongs that before us and that behind us and what is in between. And never is your Lord forgetful -
(Und die Engel sagen:) "Wir kommen nur auf Befehl deines Herrn herab. Ihm gehört (alles), was vor uns und was hinter uns und was dazwischen ist; und dein Herr ist gewiß nicht vergeßlich,'
"Lord of the heavens and of the earth, and of all that is between them; so worship Him, and be constant and patient in His worship: knowest thou of any who is worthy of the same Name as He?"
Lord of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them - so worship Him and have patience for His worship. Do you know of any similarity to Him?"
(Er), der Herr der Himmel und der Erde und dessen, was dazwischen ist. So diene Ihm und sei beharrlich in Seinem Dienst. Weißt du (etwa) einen, der Kennzeichen gleich den Seinen besäße?1"
Man says: "What! When I am dead, shall I then be raised up alive?"
And the says, "When I have died, am I going to be brought forth alive?"
Der Mensch sagt: "Werde ich, wenn ich erst einmal gestorben bin, wirklich wieder lebendig hervorgebracht werden?"
But does not man call to mind that We created him before out of nothing?
Does man not remember that We created him before, while he was nothing?
Gedenkt der Mensch denn nicht, daß Wir ihn zuvor erschaffen haben, da er (noch) nichts war?
So, by thy Lord, without doubt, We shall gather them together, and (also) the Evil Ones (with them); then shall We bring them forth on their knees round about Hell;
So by your Lord, We will surely gather them and the devils; then We will bring them to be present around Hell upon their knees.
Bei deinem Herrn, Wir werden sie ganz gewiß versammeln, (sie) und die Satane. Hierauf werden Wir sie ganz gewiß rings um die Hölle herum auf den Knien herbeibringen.
Then shall We certainly drag out from every sect all those who were worst in obstinate rebellion against (Allah) Most Gracious.
Then We will surely extract from every sect those of them who were worst against the Most Merciful in insolence.
Hierauf werden Wir aus jedem Lager ganz gewiß denjenigen herausnehmen, der sich dem Allerbarmer am heftigsten widersetzt hat.
And certainly We know best those who are most worthy of being burned therein.
Then, surely it is We who are most knowing of those most worthy of burning therein.
Dann wissen Wir wahrlich am besten über diejenigen Bescheid, die es am ehesten verdienen, ihr ausgesetzt zu sein.
Not one of you but will pass over it: this is, with thy Lord, a Decree which must be accomplished.
And there is none of you except he will come to it. This is upon your Lord an inevitability decreed.
Und es gibt keinen unter euch, der nicht daran vorbeigehen würde. Dies obliegt deinem Herrn unabänderlich beschlossen.
But We shall save those who guarded against evil, and We shall leave the wrong - doers therein, (humbled) to their knees.
Then We will save those who feared Allah and leave the wrongdoers within it, on their knees.
Hierauf erretten Wir diejenigen, die gottesfürchtig waren, und lassen die Ungerechten in ihr auf den Knien zurück.
When Our Clear Signs are rehearsed to them, the Unbelievers say to those who believe, "Which of the two sides is best in point of position? Which makes the best show in council?"
And when Our verses are recited to them as clear evidences, those who disbelieve say to those who believe, "Which of [our] two parties is best in position and best in association?"
Und wenn ihnen Unsere Zeichen als klare Beweise verlesen werden, sagen diejenigen, die ungläubig sind, zu denjenigen, die glauben: "Welcher der beiden Gruppen hat nun eine bessere Stellung und eine schönere Gesellschaft?"
But how many (countless) generations before them have we destroyed, who were even better in equipment and in glitter to the eye?
And how many a generation have We destroyed before them who were better in possessions and [outward] appearance?
Aber wie viele Geschlechter vernichteten Wir vor ihnen, die besser an Ausstattung und Aussehen waren!
Say: "If any men go astray, (Allah) Most Gracious extends (the rope) to them, until, when they see the warning of Allah (being fulfilled) - either in punishment or in (the approach of) the Hour, - they will at length realise who is worst in position, and (who) weakest in forces!
Say, "Whoever is in error - let the Most Merciful extend for him an extension [in wealth and time] until, when they see that which they were promised - either punishment [in this world] or the Hour [of resurrection] - they will come to know who is worst in position and weaker in soldiers."
Sag: Wer sich im Irrtum befindet, den möge der Allerbarmer lange darin gewähren lassen. Wenn sie dann sehen, was ihnen angedroht ist, entweder die Strafe oder die Stunde, da werden sie wissen, wer sich in einer (noch) schlechteren Lage befindet und die schwächere Heerschar hat.
"And Allah doth advance in guidance those who seek guidance: and the things that endure, Good Deeds, are best in the sight of thy Lord, as rewards, and best in respect of (their) eventual return."
And Allah increases those who were guided, in guidance, and the enduring good deeds are better to your Lord for reward and better for recourse.
Und Allah mehrt denjenigen, die rechtgeleitet sind, ihre Rechtleitung. Das Bleibende aber, die rechtschaffenen Werke - sie sind bei deinem Herrn besser in der Belohnung und besser als Rückkehr.
Hast thou then seen the (sort of) man who rejects Our Signs, yet says: "I shall certainly be given wealth and children?"
Then, have you seen he who disbelieved in Our verses and said, "I will surely be given wealth and children [in the next life]?"
Was meinst du wohl zu demjenigen, der Unsere Zeichen verleugnet und sagt: "Mir werden ganz gewiß Besitz und Kinder gegeben"?
Has he penetrated to the Unseen, or has he taken a contract with (Allah) Most Gracious?
Has he looked into the unseen, or has he taken from the Most Merciful a promise?
Hat er etwa Einblick in das Verborgene gewonnen, oder hat er vom Allerbarmer eine Verpflichtung entgegengenommen?
Nay! We shall record what he says, and We shall add and add to his punishment.
No! We will record what he says and extend for him from the punishment extensively.
Keineswegs! Wir werden aufschreiben, was er sagt, und ihm die Strafe noch verlängern.
To Us shall return all that he talks of and he shall appear before Us bare and alone.
And We will inherit him [in] what he mentions, and he will come to Us alone.
Und Wir erben von ihm das, was er sagt, während er einzeln zu Uns kommt.
And they have taken (for worship) gods other than Allah, to give them power and glory!
And they have taken besides Allah [false] deities that they would be for them [a source of] honor.
Und sie haben sich anstatt Allahs Götter genommen, damit sie ihnen zu Macht gereichen.
Instead, they shall reject their worship, and become adversaries against them.
No! Those "gods" will deny their worship of them and will be against them opponents [on the Day of Judgement].
Keineswegs! Sie werden den von ihnen (empfangenen) Dienst verleugnen und werden ihnen Gegner sein.
Seest thou not that We have set the Evil Ones on against the unbelievers, to incite them with fury?
Do you not see that We have sent the devils upon the disbelievers, inciting them to [evil] with [constant] incitement?
Siehst du nicht, daß Wir die Satane gegen die Ungläubigen gesandt haben, damit sie sie heftig aufreizen?
So make no haste against them, for We but count out to them a (limited) number (of days).
So be not impatient over them. We only count out to them a [limited] number.
So wünsche nichts gegen sie zu beschleunigen; Wir zählen ihnen schon (die Tage) ab.
The day We shall gather the righteous to (Allah) Most Gracious, like a band presented before a king for honours,
On the Day We will gather the righteous to the Most Merciful as a delegation
An einem Tag, da Wir die Gottesfürchtigen als eine (geehrte) Abordnung zum Allerbarmer versammeln
And We shall drive the sinners to Hell, like thirsty cattle driven down to water, -
And will drive the criminals to Hell in thirst
und die Übeltäter, wie eine durstige Herde zur Tränke zur Hölle treiben,
None shall have the power of intercession, but such a one as has received permission (or promise) from (Allah) Most Gracious.
None will have [power of] intercession except he who had taken from the Most Merciful a covenant.
verfugen sie nicht über die Fürsprache, außer demjenigen, der vom Allerbarmer eine (diesbezügliche) Verpflichtung entgegengenommen hat.
They say: "(Allah) Most Gracious has begotten a son!"
And they say, "The Most Merciful has taken [for Himself] a son."
Und sie sagen: "Der Allerbarmer hat Sich Kinder genommen."
Indeed ye have put forth a thing most monstrous!
You have done an atrocious thing.
