تَنزِعُ ٱلنَّاسَ كَأَنَّهُمۡ أَعۡجَازُ نَخۡلٖ مُّنقَعِرٖ

(54:20) which tore people away and hurled them as though they were trunks
of uprooted palm-trees.


فَكَيۡفَ كَانَ عَذَابِي وَنُذُرِ

(54:21) So how awesome were My chastisement and My warnings!


وَلَقَدۡ يَسَّرۡنَا ٱلۡقُرۡءَانَ لِلذِّكۡرِ فَهَلۡ مِن مُّدَّكِرٖ

(54:22) We have made the Qur'an easy to derive lessons from. Is there, then,
any who will take heed?


كَذَّبَتۡ ثَمُودُ بِٱلنُّذُرِ

(54:23) Thamud gave the lie to the warnings,


فَقَالُوٓاْ أَبَشَرٗا مِّنَّا وَٰحِدٗا نَّتَّبِعُهُۥٓ إِنَّآ إِذٗا لَّفِي ضَلَٰلٖ وَسُعُرٍ

(54:24) saying: “Are we to follow a single mortal,7 one from
among ourselves? If we do that, we shall surely be in error and folly.


أَءُلۡقِيَ ٱلذِّكۡرُ عَلَيۡهِ مِنۢ بَيۡنِنَا بَلۡ هُوَ كَذَّابٌ أَشِرٞ

(54:25) Was there none but he to whom the Reminder could be vouchsafed excluding
all others? Nay; he is an insolent liar.”8
