Thamood, too, belied Our warnings. 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 “What! Of all the men among us, the remembrance has come down upon him? In fact, he is a mischievous, great liar.” 25 (Unto their warner it was said): To-morrow they will know who is the rash liar. 26 We shall send the she-camel as a trial for them; so watch their end with patience. 27 And inform them that the water is shared between them; every share of the water shall be regulated. 28 But they called their companion who took hold of her and hamstrung her. 29 Ah! how (terrible) was My Penalty and My Warning! 30 Then We sent against them one Shout and they became like the trampled twigs of the (sheep) penbuilder. 31 And certainly We have made the Quran easy for remembrance, but is there anyone who will mind? 32 The people of Lut denied the Noble Messengers. 33 and behold, We let loose upon them a tempest which rained stones upon them, except upon Lot's household whom We rescued in the last hours of the night 34 As a favour from Us. Thus We recompense him who giveth thanks. 35 Lot warned them of Our punishment, but they disputed the warnings -- 36 They demanded that he turn over his guests to them. We struck their faces, blinded them and said, "Suffer Our torment of which you were warned". 37 And in truth the punishment decreed befell them early in the morning. 38 So taste My punishment and warning. 39 We have made the Koran an easy Remembrance, is there any that will remember! 40
