(The tribe of) Thamud rejected warnings 23 And said, "Is it one human being among us that we should follow? Indeed, we would then be in error and madness. 24 Has the Reminder been cast upon him alone among us? Nay, rather he is an impudent liar.' 25 (To him We said): 'Tomorrow they shall know who is the arrogant liar. 26 We shall send the she-camel to try them. So watch them, and be constant. 27 And tell them that the water is to be divided between them, each drink for each in turn. 28 In response they called their companion – he therefore caught and hamstrung the she-camel. 29 How was then My punishment of which they had been warned? 30 Surely We sent upon them a single cry, so they were like the dry fragments of trees which the maker of an enclosure collects. 31 Now We have made the Koran easy for Remembrance. Is there any that will remember? 32 The people of Lot rejected the warnings. 33 Lo! We sent a storm of stones upon them (all) save the family of Lot, whom We rescued in the last watch of the night, 34 as a blessing from Us: thus do We reward all who are grateful. 35 For he had truly warned them of Our punishing might; but they stubbornly cast doubt on these warnings, 36 They even solicited of him his guests, but We obliterated their eyes: 'Now, taste My punishment and My warnings' 37 And at daybreak a determined punishment came upon them. 38 We said, "Suffer Our torment of which you were warned". 39 And We have indeed made the Qur’an easy to memorise, so is there one who would remember? 40
