The Thamud rejected the warnings, 23 And said: "Should we follow only one man among us? In that case we shall be in error and insane." 24 Hath the remembrance been given unto him alone among us? Nay, but he is a rash 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 inform them that the water is to be shared between (her and) them. Each one's right to drink being established (by turns). 28 But they called their companion, and he dared 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 Surely We have made this Qur'an easy as a reminder. Is there, then, any who will take heed? 32 The people of Lot denied the warning. 33 Indeed, We sent upon them a storm of stones, except the family of Lot - We saved them before dawn 34 As grace from Us. Thus We reward him who giveth thanks. 35 And indeed he had warned them of Our seizure – in response they doubted the warnings. 36 Then they even solicited his guests from him, whereupon We blotted out their eyes, (telling them): “Now have a taste of My chastisement and My warnings.” 37 And verily, an abiding torment seized them early in the morning. 38 So taste My chastisement and My warning. 39 Hence, indeed, We made this Qur'an easy to bear in mind: who, then, is willing to take it to heart? 40
