Thamud (people also) belied the warnings. 23 For they said; Is it a mortal man, alone among us, that we are to follow? Then indeed we should fall into error and madness. 24 Was he the one of all of us to have been given the exposition? He is surely an impudent liar." 25 They will know tomorrow who is the insolent liar. 26 For We will send the she-camel by way of trial for them. So watch them, (O Salih), and possess thyself in patience! 27 And declare thou unto them that water hath been divided between them; every drinking shall be by turns. 28 But they called their companion, so he took (the sword) and slew (her). 29 Then, how (terrible) was My Torment and My Warnings? 30 Verily We, We sent upon them one shout, and they became as the stubble of a fold-builder. 31 Now We have made the Koran easy for Remembrance. Is there any that will remember? 32 The people of Lot rejected Our warning. 33 We sent a stone-hurtling storm against them, except the family of Lot whom We saved in the early hours of the morning 34 As a reward from Us; this is how We reward one who gives thanks. 35 And (Lut) did warn them of Our Punishment, but they disputed about the Warning. 36 Then they even solicited his guests from him, whereupon We blotted out their eyes, (telling them): “Now have a taste of My chastisement and My warnings.” 37 And at daybreak a determined punishment came upon them. 38 'Taste now My chastisement and My warnings!' 39 Surely We have made this Qur'an easy as a reminder. Is there, then, any who will take heed? 40
