They said, “O Shuʿayb, we do not understand much of what you say, and indeed, we consider you among us as weak. And if not for your family, we would have stoned you [to death]; and you are not to us a mighty one.” He said, “O my people, is my family mightier upon you than Allah? But you have taken Him behind your backs [in neglect]. Indeed, my Lord is All Encompassing of what you do. And O my people, work according to your position; indeed, I am working. You are going to know to whom will come a punishment that will disgrace him and who is a liar. So watch; indeed, I am with you a watcher.”And when Our command came, We saved Shuʿayb and those who believed with him, by mercy from Us. And the shriek seized those who had wronged, and they became within their homes [corpses] fallen prone As if they had never prospered therein. Then, away with Madyan as Thamūd was taken away.
