[AND the tribe of] Thamud gave the lie to all [Our] warnings; 23 They said, "Should we follow only one person among us. We shall be clearly in error and in trouble (if we do so). 24 Out of all of us has the Reminder been given to him alone? Rather, he is indeed an arrogant liar' 25 Tomorrow shall they know who is the liar, the insolent one. 26 For We will send the she-camel by way of trial for them. So watch them, (O Salih), and possess thyself in patience! 27 “And inform them that the water is to be shared between them; only those may come whose turn it is.” 28 But they called their companion who took a sword and hamstrung her. 29 and how severe was the suffering which I inflicted when My warnings were disregarded! 30 Then We sent against them one Shout and they became like the trampled twigs of the (sheep) penbuilder. 31 Indeed, We have made the Quran easy to learn lessons from. Is there anyone who would receive admonition? 32 The people of Lut rejected (his) warning. 33 We sent a sandstorm against them which destroyed them all, except the family of Lot, whom We saved at the break of dawn, 34 as a favour from Us. Thus do We reward those who give thanks. 35 And he had already warned them of Our assault, but they 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 And indeed, abiding suffering did befall them early on the morrow: 38 "So taste ye My Wrath and My Warning." 39 We have made the Koran an easy Remembrance, is there any that will remember! 40
