The Thamud rejected the warnings, 23 For they said; Is it a mortal man, alone among us, that we are to follow? Then indeed we should fall into error and madness. 24 Has the [Divine] message been revealed to him alone of all of us?

Each one's right to drink being established (by turns). 28 They called together their companions and agreed to slay the she-camel. 29 How terrible was My punishment and warning. 30 We sent a single blast against them, and they were reduced to husks of a decayed fence. 31 Easy have We made the Qur'an to understand: So is there any one who will be warned? 32 Lot's people also gave the lie to the warnings, 33 We sent a stone-hurtling storm against them, except the family of Lot whom We saved in the early hours of the morning 34 A favor from Us; thus do We reward him who gives thanks. 35 And certainly he warned them of Our violent seizure, but they obstinately disputed the warning. 36 Even his guests they had solicited of him; so We obliterated their eyes, saying, 'Taste now My chastisement and My warnings!' 37 In the morning early there came upon them a settled chastisement: 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
