Thamud denied the warning 23 and they said: "Are we to follow one single mortal, one from among ourselves? In that case, behold, we would certainly sink into error and folly! 24 Was he the one of all of us to have been given the exposition? He is surely an impudent liar." 25 (We told Our Messenger): “Tomorrow they shall know who is the insolent liar. 26 They shall send the She-camel as a trial for them; so watch thou them and keep patience. 27 And inform them that the water is to be shared between (her and) them. Every drinking will be witnessed. 28 Then they called their comrade, and he took in hand, and hamstrung her. 29 So how awesome were My chastisement and My warnings! 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 And indeed, We have made the Quran easy to understand and remember, then is there any that will remember (or receive admonition)? 32 The people of Lot denied the warning. 33 We sent against them a violent Tornado with showers of stones, (which destroyed them), except Lut's household: them We delivered by early Dawn,- 34 As grace from Us. Thus We reward him who giveth thanks. 35 Lot warned them of Our punishment, but they disputed the warnings -- 36 And they tried to persuade him regarding his guests – We therefore blinded their eyes, “So taste My punishment, and My warnings.” 37 And at daybreak a determined punishment came upon them. 38 "Taste My punishment now that you have scorned My warnings!" 39 We have made the Koran an easy Remembrance, is there any that will remember! 40
