Thamud denied the warning 23 And said: "Should we follow only one man among us? In that case we shall be in error and insane." 24 Hath the remembrance been given unto him alone among us? Nay, but he is a rash liar. 25 They will know tomorrow who is the insolent liar. 26 Indeed, We are sending the she-camel as trial for them, so watch them and be patient. 27 “And inform them that the water is to be shared between them; only those may come whose turn it is.” 28 In response they called their companion – he therefore caught and hamstrung the she-camel. 29 How (great) was then My punishment and My warning! 30 Indeed, We sent upon them one blast from the sky, and they became like the dry twig fragments of an [animal] pen. 31 Surely We have made this Qur'an easy as a reminder. Is there, then, any who will take heed? 32 The people of Lut rejected (his) warning. 33 Verily, We sent against them a violent storm of stones (which destroyed them all), except the family of Lout (Lot), whom We saved in last hour of the night, 34 As a reward from Us; this is how We reward one who gives thanks. 35 And he had already warned them of Our assault, but they disputed the warning. 36 And assuredly they solicited him for his guests: then We wiped out their eyes: taste then My torment and My warnings. 37 In the morning early there came upon them a settled chastisement: 38 We said, "Suffer Our torment of which you were warned". 39 Surely We have made this Qur'an easy as a reminder. Is there, then, any who will take heed? 40
