And the Thamud belied the 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 “What! Of all the men among us, the remembrance has come down upon him? In fact, he is a mischievous, great liar.” 25 (To him We said): 'Tomorrow they shall know who is the arrogant liar. 26 Verily We are sending the she-camel as a test for them, so watch them thou and have patience. 27 And tell them that the water is to be divided between them: Each one's right to drink being brought forward (by suitable turns). 28 But they called their companion who took hold of her and hamstrung her. 29 Then see how (dreadful) was My punishment after My warnings! 30 Indeed We sent upon them a single Scream – thereupon they became like the barrier builder’s residual dry trampled hay. 31 Now We have made the Koran easy for Remembrance. Is there any that will remember? 32 Lot's people also gave the lie to 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 favour from Us. Thus do We reward those who give thanks. 35 And he [Lout (Lot)] indeed had warned them of Our Grasp, but they did doubt the warnings! 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 And certainly a lasting chastisement overtook them in the morning. 38 So now taste My punishment and My commination! 39 We have made the Koran an easy Remembrance, is there any that will remember! 40
