إِذِ ٱنۢبَعَثَ أَشۡقَىٰهَا
when the most wicked man among them rose [against him].
فَقَالَ لَهُمۡ رَسُولُ ٱللَّهِ نَاقَةَ ٱللَّهِ وَسُقۡيَٰهَا
The messenger of God said to them, ‘[Leave] God’s camel to drink,’
فَكَذَّبُوهُ فَعَقَرُوهَا فَدَمۡدَمَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ رَبُّهُم بِذَنۢبِهِمۡ فَسَوَّىٰهَا
but they called him a liar and hamstrung her. Their Lord destroyed them for their crime and levelled them.
وَلَا يَخَافُ عُقۡبَٰهَا
He did not hesitate to punish them.
