Samood rejected the warning. 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 How is it that he has received guidance? In fact, he is the most untruthfull and arrogant person". 25 Tomorrow shall they know who is the liar, the insolent one. 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 (her and) them. Every drinking will be witnessed. 28 But they called their comrade and he took (a sword) and killed (her). 29 So how dreadful have been My torment and My warnings. 30 Indeed We sent upon them a single Scream – thereupon they became like the barrier builder’s residual dry trampled hay. 31 And We have indeed made the Qur'an easy to understand and remember: then is there any that will receive admonition? 32 The people of Lut denied the Noble Messengers. 33 We sent down upon them a violent sandstorm (which destroyed them all) except for the family of Lot, whom We saved in the early morning by Our favor. 34 as a blessing from Us: this is how We reward the thankful. 35 Lot warned them against Our torment, but they persistently disputed it. 36 And certainly they endeavored to turn him from his guests, but We blinded their eyes; so taste My chastisement and My warning. 37 And in truth the punishment decreed befell them early in the morning. 38 “So taste My punishment, and My warnings!” 39 Easy have We made the Qur'an to understand: So is there any one who will be warned? 40
