The tribe of Thamud also rejected Our 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 message been sent down upon him from among us? Rather, he is an insolent liar." 25 (Unto their warner it was said): To-morrow they will know who is the rash liar. 26 Indeed, We are sending the she-camel as trial for them, so watch them and be patient. 27 Let them know that the water should be divided between them and the she-camel, each availing their turn.” 28 But they called their companion who took a sword and hamstrung her. 29 Then see how (dreadful) was My punishment after My warnings! 30 Then We sent against them one Shout and they became like the trampled twigs of the (sheep) penbuilder. 31 We made the Quran easy to understand, but is there anyone who would take heed? 32 The people of Lot denied the warning. 33 Verily We! We sent upon them a gravel-storm save the household of Lut; them We delivered at early dawn. 34 As favor from us. Thus do We reward he who is grateful. 35 And (Lut) did warn them of Our Punishment, but they disputed about the Warning. 36 And they even sought to snatch away his guests from him, but We blinded their eyes. (They heard:) "Now taste ye My Wrath and My Warning." 37 In the morning early there came upon them a settled chastisement: 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
