Waalssama-i wama banaha

وَالْأَرْضِ وَمَا طَحَاهَا

In their overwhelming arrogance, the people of Thamud called the Messenger a liar,

Kaththabat thamoodu bitaghwaha

إِذِ انبَعَثَ أَشْقَاهَا

فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ نَاقَةَ اللَّهِ وَسُقْيَاهَا

The Messenger of God said to them, "This is the she-camel of God, so let her drink."

But they called him a liar, and hamstrung her. So their Lord destroyed them for their crime, and leveled it.
