الْقَمَر

Yea, how (terrible) was My Penalty and My Warning!

But We have indeed made the Qur´an easy to understand and remember: then is there any that will receive admonition?

The Thamud (also) rejected (their) Warners.

For they said: "What! a man! a Solitary one from among ourselves! shall we follow such a one? Truly should we then be straying in mind, and mad!

"Is it that the Message is sent to him, of all people amongst us? Nay, he is a liar, an insolent one!"

Ah! they will know on the morrow, which is the liar, the insolent one!

For We will send the she-camel by way of trial for them. So watch them, (O Salih), and possess thyself in patience!

And tell them that the water is to be divided between them: Each one´s right to drink being brought forward (by suitable turns).

But they called to their companion, and he took a sword in hand, and hamstrung (her).

Ah! how (terrible) was My Penalty and My Warning!

For We sent against them a single Mighty Blast, and they became like the dry stubble used by one who pens cattle.

And We have indeed made the Qur´an easy to understand and remember: then is there any that will receive admonition?

The people of Lut rejected (his) warning.

We sent against them a violent Tornado with showers of stones, (which destroyed them), except Lut´s household: them We delivered by early Dawn,-

As a Grace from Us: thus do We reward those who give thanks.

And (Lut) did warn them of Our Punishment, but they disputed about the Warning.

And they even sought to snatch away his guests from him, but We blinded their eyes. (They heard:) "Now taste ye My Wrath and My Warning."

Early on the morrow an abiding Punishment seized them:

"So taste ye My Wrath and My Warning."

And We have indeed made the Qur´an easy to understand and remember: then is there any that will receive admonition?
