Thamud (people also) belied the warnings. 23 So they said: What! a single mortal from among us! Shall we follow him? Most surely we shall in that case be in sure error and distress: 24 “What! Of all the men among us, the remembrance has come down upon him? In fact, he is a mischievous, great liar.” 25 'They shall surely know tomorrow who is the impudent liar. 26 Verily We are sending the she-camel as a test for them, so watch them thou and have patience. 27 Tell them that each one of them has the right to have a certain share of water". 28 Then they called their comrade, and he took in hand, and hamstrung her. 29 and how severe was the suffering which I inflicted when My warnings were disregarded! 30 Indeed, We sent upon them one blast from the sky, and they became like the dry twig fragments of an [animal] pen. 31 Now We have made the Koran easy for Remembrance. Is there any that will remember? 32 Lot's people also gave the lie to the warnings, 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 Lot warned them against Our torment, but they persistently disputed it. 36 They even asked of him his guests for an ill purpose. Then We blinded their eyes (and said): Taste now My punishment after My warnings! 37 Early on the morrow an abiding Punishment seized them: 38 Taste then My torment and My warnings. 39 And assuredly We have made the Qur'an easy for admonition; is there then any one who would be admonished. 40
