Thamud (people also) belied the warnings. 23 And they said: a mere human being from amongst us, and single! shall we follow him! verily then we should fall in error and madness. 24 Has the Reminder been cast upon him alone among us? Nay, rather he is an impudent liar.' 25 (Unto their warner it was said): To-morrow they will know who is the rash liar. 26 “We shall send a she-camel to test them, therefore O Saleh, wait and have patience.” 27 And let them know that the water [of their wells] is to be divided between them, with each share of water equitably apportioned." 28 But they called their comrade and he took (a sword) and killed (her). 29 and how severe was the suffering which I inflicted when My warnings were disregarded! 30 Verily We, We sent upon them one shout, and they became as the stubble of a fold-builder. 31 Hence, indeed, We made this Qur'an easy to bear in mind: who, then, is willing to take it to heart? 32 The people of Lut rejected (his) warning. 33 [and so,] behold, We let loose upon them a deadly tempest; and only Lot 's kinsfolk did We save at the break of dawn, 34 As a Grace from Us: thus do We reward those who give thanks. 35 He had warned them of Our might, but they passed over the warnings. 36 Even his guests they had solicited of him; so We obliterated their eyes, saying, 'Taste now My chastisement and My warnings!' 37 Indeed an abiding chastisement came upon them in the morning. 38 Taste then My torment and My warnings. 39 And We have certainly made the Qur'an easy for remembrance, so is there any who will remember? 40
