(The tribe of) Thamud rejected warnings 23 So they said: What! a single mortal from among us! Shall we follow him? Most surely we shall in that case be in sure error and distress: 24 Out of all of us has the Reminder been given to him alone? Rather, he is indeed an arrogant liar' 25 (To him We said): 'Tomorrow they shall know who is the arrogant liar. 26 We shall send the she-camel as a trial for them; so watch their end with patience. 27 And inform them that the water is shared between them; every share of the water shall be regulated. 28 But they call their comrade and he took and hamstrung (her). 29 And how [severe] were My punishment and warning. 30 Behold, We sent a single Blast against them, and they became like the trampled twigs of a sheep pen-builder. 31 Easy have We made the Qur'an to understand: So is there any one who will be warned? 32 The people of Lut rejected (his) warning. 33 We let loose on all of them a squall of claystones, except for the house of Lot whom We saved at dawn 34 through Our Mercy. So it is that We recompense the thankful. 35 He had warned them of Our might, but they passed over 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 assuredly there met them early in the morning a torment settled. 38 Taste then My torment and My warnings. 39 Now We have made the Koran easy for Remembrance. Is there any that will remember? 40
