Thamood cried lies to the warnings 23 saying: “Are we to follow a single mortal, one from among ourselves? If we do that, we shall surely be in error and folly. 24 Hath the admonition been laid upon him from amongst us! Aye! he is a liar insolent. 25 [We said to him] "Tomorrow they shall know who is the boastful liar, 26 We shall send the she-camel as a trial for them; so watch their end with patience. 27 Let them know that the water should be divided between them and the she-camel, each availing their turn.” 28 But they called to their companion, and he took a sword in hand, and hamstrung (her). 29 How then were My chastisement and My warnings? 30 Verily We, We sent upon them one shout, and they became as the stubble of a fold-builder. 31 And in truth We have made the Qur'an easy to remember; but is there any that remembereth? 32 The people of Lot cried lies to the warnings. 33 We let loose on all of them a squall of claystones, except for the house of Lot whom We saved at dawn 34 as a favour from Us. Thus do We reward those who give thanks. 35 And he had already warned them of Our assault, but they disputed the warning. 36 And assuredly they solicited him for his guests: then We wiped out their eyes: taste then My torment and My warnings. 37 And indeed, abiding suffering did befall them early on the morrow: 38 'Now, taste My punishment and My warnings' 39 And certainly We have made the Quran easy for remembrance, but is there anyone who will mind? 40
