Thamud denied the warning 23 and they said: "Are we to follow one single mortal, one from among ourselves? In that case, behold, we would certainly sink into error and folly! 24 Was he the one of all of us to have been given the exposition? He is surely an impudent liar." 25 (Unto their warner it was said): To-morrow they will know who is the rash liar. 26 We are sending to them as a trial, a shecamel, so watch them and have patience. 27 Tell them that the water is to be divided between them, a drink each for them in turn' 28 But they call their comrade and he took and hamstrung (her). 29 and how severe was the suffering which I inflicted when My warnings were disregarded! 30 For We sent against them a single Mighty Blast, and they became like the dry stubble used by one who pens cattle. 31 And We have certainly made the Qur'an easy for remembrance, so is there any who will remember? 32 The people of Lot cried lies to the warnings. 33 We loosed against them a squall of pebbles except the folk of Lot; We delivered them at the dawn -- 34 As a reward from Us; this is how We reward one who gives thanks. 35 And certainly he warned them of Our violent seizure, but they obstinately disputed the warning. 36 And they tried to persuade him regarding his guests – We therefore blinded their eyes, “So taste My punishment, and My warnings.” 37 Indeed an abiding chastisement came upon them in the morning. 38 We said, "Suffer Our torment of which you were warned". 39 Now We have made the Koran easy for Remembrance. Is there any that will remember? 40
