The tribe of Thamud also rejected Our warnings: 23 And they said: a mere human being from amongst us, and single! shall we follow him! verily then we should fall in error and madness. 24 "Is it that the Reminder is sent to him [Prophet Salih (Saleh)] alone from among us? Nay, he is an insolent liar!" 25 It was said to Saleh, “They will soon realise tomorrow who is the mischievous great liar.” 26 “We shall send a she-camel to test them, therefore O Saleh, wait and have patience.” 27 And inform them that the water is to be shared between (her and) them. Every drinking will be witnessed. 28 In response they called their companion – he therefore caught and hamstrung the she-camel. 29 and how severe was the suffering which I inflicted when My warnings were disregarded! 30 We sent a single blast against them, and they were reduced to husks of a decayed fence. 31 Now We have made the Koran easy for Remembrance. Is there any that will remember? 32 The people of Lout (Lot) belied the warnings. 33 Verily We! We sent upon them a gravel-storm save the household of Lut; them We delivered at early dawn. 34 As a favour from Us. That is how We reward the grateful. 35 And assuredly he had warned them of Our grasp, but: they doubted the warnings. 36 And certainly they endeavored to turn him from his guests, but We blinded their eyes; so taste My chastisement and My warning. 37 One early morning Our torment brought upon them utter destruction. 38 So now taste My punishment and My commination! 39 And assuredly We have made the Qur'an easy for admonition; is there then any one who would be admonished. 40
