Thamud (people also) belied the warnings. 23 and said, 'What, shall we follow a mortal, one out of ourselves? Then indeed we should be in error and insanity! 24 Out of all of us has the Reminder been given to him alone? Rather, he is indeed an arrogant liar' 25 "Tomorrow they will know who is the impudent liar! 26 We shall send the she-camel to try them. So watch them, and be constant. 27 “And inform them that the water is to be shared between them; only those may come whose turn it is.” 28 But they called their companion who took hold of her and hamstrung her. 29 and how severe was the suffering which I inflicted when My warnings were disregarded! 30 Lo! We sent upon them one Shout, and they became as the dry twigs (rejected by) the builder of a cattle-fold. 31 And certainly We have made the Quran easy for remembrance, but is there anyone who will mind? 32 Lot's people also gave the lie to the warnings, 33 Indeed We sent a shower of stones upon them, except the family of Lut; We rescued them before dawn. 34 a blessing from Us; even so We recompense him who is thankful. 35 And indeed he had warned them of Our seizure – in response they doubted the warnings. 36 And they indeed sought to shame his guest (by asking to commit sodomy with them). So We blinded their eyes, "Then taste you My Torment and My Warnings." 37 And certainly a lasting chastisement overtook them in the morning. 38 So now taste My punishment and My commination! 39 And assuredly We have made the Qur'an easy for admonition; is there then any one who would be admonished. 40
