فَكَيْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِيْ وَنُذُرِ ( القمر: ٢١ )
And how [severe] were My punishment and warning.
وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا الْقُرْاٰنَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِنْ مُّدَّكِرٍ ࣖ ( القمر: ٢٢ )
And We have certainly made the Quran easy for remembrance, so is there any who will remember?
كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُوْدُ بِالنُّذُرِ ( القمر: ٢٣ )
Thamud denied the warning.
فَقَالُوْٓا اَبَشَرًا مِّنَّا وَاحِدًا نَّتَّبِعُهٗٓ ۙاِنَّآ اِذًا لَّفِيْ ضَلٰلٍ وَّسُعُرٍ ( القمر: ٢٤ )
And said, "Is it one human being among us that we should follow? Indeed, we would then be in error and madness.
ءَاُلْقِيَ الذِّكْرُ عَلَيْهِ مِنْۢ بَيْنِنَا بَلْ هُوَ كَذَّابٌ اَشِرٌ ( القمر: ٢٥ )
Has the message been sent down upon him from among us? Rather, he is an insolent liar."
سَيَعْلَمُوْنَ غَدًا مَّنِ الْكَذَّابُ الْاَشِرُ ( القمر: ٢٦ )
They will know tomorrow who is the insolent liar.
اِنَّا مُرْسِلُوا النَّاقَةِ فِتْنَةً لَّهُمْ فَارْتَقِبْهُمْ وَاصْطَبِرْۖ ( القمر: ٢٧ )
Indeed, We are sending the she-camel as trial for them, so watch them and be patient.
وَنَبِّئْهُمْ اَنَّ الْمَاۤءَ قِسْمَةٌ ۢ بَيْنَهُمْۚ كُلُّ شِرْبٍ مُّحْتَضَرٌ ( القمر: ٢٨ )
And inform them that the water is shared between them, each [day of] drink attended [by turn].
فَنَادَوْا صَاحِبَهُمْ فَتَعَاطٰى فَعَقَرَ ( القمر: ٢٩ )
But they called their companion, and he dared and hamstrung [her].
فَكَيْفَ كَانَ عَذَابِيْ وَنُذُرِ ( القمر: ٣٠ )
And how [severe] were My punishment and warning.
