كَذَّبَتۡ ثَمُودُ بِٱلنُّذُرِ

Thamud cried lies to the warnings.


فَقَالُوٓاْ أَبَشَرٗا مِّنَّا وَٰحِدٗا نَّتَّبِعُهُۥٓ إِنَّآ إِذٗا لَّفِي ضَلَٰلٖ وَسُعُرٍ

So they said, "Should we closely follow a mortal, one out of ourselves? Lo, surely we are indeed in error and insanity!


أَءُلۡقِيَ ٱلذِّكۡرُ عَلَيۡهِ مِنۢ بَيۡنِنَا بَلۡ هُوَ كَذَّابٌ أَشِرٞ

Has the Remembrance been cast upon him (alone) from among us? No indeed, (but) he is an insolent liar."


سَيَعۡلَمُونَ غَدٗا مَّنِ ٱلۡكَذَّابُ ٱلۡأَشِرُ

They will (soon) know tomorrow who is the insolent liar.


إِنَّا مُرۡسِلُواْ ٱلنَّاقَةِ فِتۡنَةٗ لَّهُمۡ فَٱرۡتَقِبۡهُمۡ وَٱصۡطَبِرۡ

Surely We are sending the she-camel as a temptation for them; so be on the watch for them and constantly (endure) patiently.


وَنَبِّئۡهُمۡ أَنَّ ٱلۡمَآءَ قِسۡمَةُۢ بَيۡنَهُمۡۖ كُلُّ شِرۡبٖ مُّحۡتَضَرٞ

And fully inform them that the water is to a (fair) division between them; (i.e., between the she-camel and them) each drinking is for each presented in turn.


فَنَادَوۡاْ صَاحِبَهُمۡ فَتَعَاطَىٰ فَعَقَرَ

Then they called out their companion, so he took upon himself (the task); then he hamstrung her.
