30.38	O believers, give what is due to your relatives, the needy and the traveller in need. That is best for those who seek the pleasure of Allah and it is they who will attain felicity.
30.39	That usury which you give to increase the wealth of people, does not increase with Allah: but the Zakah that you give to seek the pleasure of Allah, shall be repaid to you many times over.

41.13	Now if they turn away, say to them: "I have given you warning of a thunderbolt, like the thunderbolt which struck Ad and Thamud."
41.14	When their Rasools came to them from before and from behind, saying: "Worship none but Allah." They replied: "If our Rabb wanted to send us a message, He would certainly have sent down angels, so we categorically deny the message with which you are sent."
41.15	As for `Ad, they conducted themselves with arrogance in the land without any justification and said: "Who is stronger than us in might?" Could they not see that Allah Who created them, was mightier than them? Yet they continued to reject Our revelations.
41.16	So, over a few ill-omened days, We let loose on them a furious hurricane to make them taste a shameful scourge in this life, but more shameful still will be the punishment of the hereafter, and they shall have none to help them.
41.17	As for Thamud, We offer them Our guidance, but they preferred to remain blind rather than to receive guidance towards the Right Way; so the thunderbolt of humiliating scourge seized them for their misdeeds,
41.18	but We saved those who believed and had the fear of Allah.
69.4	The Thamud and the 'Ad people denied the striking calamity.
69.5	As for Thamud, they were destroyed by the Thunderbolt.
69.6	As for 'Ad they were destroyed by a furious windstorm
69.7	- which He let loose on them for seven nights and eight successive days. Had you been there, you would have seen them lying prostrate as though they were hollow trunks of the palm-trees.
69.8	Now, do you see any of them alive?

26.139	So they disbelieved him and We utterly destroyed them. Surely in this story there is a great lesson, but most of these people do not learn a lesson and become believers.
51.41	There is also a sign in the story of 'Ad: when We let loose on them a blighting wind
51.42	which made rotten everything that it blew on.

46.21	Tell them the story of 'Ad's brethren, the Prophet Hud, when he warned his people, the residents of Ahqaf - in fact Warners came to them before him and after him - saying: "Worship none but Allah. Surely I fear for you the torment of a mighty Day."
46.22	They replied: "Have you come to turn us away from our gods? Bring us the torment that you threaten us with, if you are telling the truth."
46.23	The Prophet Hud said: "The Knowledge of when it is going to come is only with Allah. I am only conveying the Message with which I have been sent, however, I can see that you are ignorant people."
46.24	Then when they saw the torment in the shape of a cloud coming towards their valleys, they said: "This cloud will bring us rain." - "Nay! It is what you were asking for, a fierce wind bringing you a woeful torment.
46.25	It is going to destroy everything by the command of its Rabb. Consequently by the morning, there was nothing to be seen except the ruins of their dwellings. Thus did We reward those guilty people.
46.26	We had established them much better than We have established you, O Qureysh of Makkah, and endowed them with the faculties of hearing, seeing, and intellect. Yet their faculties of hearing, sight and intellect avail them nothing since they denied the revelations of Allah; and they were completely hemmed in by the same thing that they used to mock at.

22.42	If they deny you O Muhammad, remember that before them the people of Nuh (Noah), 'Ad and Thamud;
38.12	Before them the people of Nuh, `Ad and Fir'on, the man of spikes, denied their Rasools,
38.13	So did Thamud, the people of Lut and those of Aiykah (the people of Median) - all divided themselves into factions;
38.14	all charged their Rasools as liars, so just was my torment of annihilating them.
69.4	The Thamud and the 'Ad people denied the striking calamity.
69.5	As for Thamud, they were destroyed by the Thunderbolt.
69.6	As for 'Ad they were destroyed by a furious windstorm
69.7	- which He let loose on them for seven nights and eight successive days. Had you been there, you would have seen them lying prostrate as though they were hollow trunks of the palm-trees.
69.8	Now, do you see any of them alive?

54.18	Likewise the people of 'Ad did not believe then how terrible was My scourge and how clear My Warning!
54.19	We let loose on them a tornado, on the day of their bitter misfortune,
54.20	which snatched them off like trunks of uprooted palm-trees.
54.21	How terrible was My scourge and how clear My warning!

11.58	When Our judgement came to pass, We saved Hud and those who believed with him through a special grace from Us - We did save them from a horrifying scourge.
11.59	Such were the people of 'Ad. They denied the revelations of their Rabb, disobeyed His Rasool, and followed the command of every stubborn oppressor.
11.60	They were followed by a curse in this world, and cursed they shall be on the Day of Resurrection. Beware! 'Ad denied their Rabb. Beware! Gone are 'Ad, the people of Hud.

25.38	The nations of `Ad and Thamud were also destroyed, and so were the dwellers of Ar-Rass, and many generations between them.
25.39	We admonished each of them by citing examples of those who were destroyed before them, even then they rejected Our revelations, so We exterminated each one of them.

7.65	For the people of 'Ad We selected their brother Hud, who said: "O my people! Worship Allah! You have no god but Him. Will you not fear Him?"
11.50	To the people of 'Ad We sent their brother Hud. He said: "O my people! Worship Allah, you have no god but Him; otherwise you are just making things up.
25.38	The nations of `Ad and Thamud were also destroyed, and so were the dwellers of Ar-Rass, and many generations between them.
26.123	The people of 'Ad, too, disbelieved their Rasools.
29.38	Likewise We destroyed the people of 'Ad and the Thamud: you have seen the traces of their dwellings. Shaitan had made their foul deeds fair-seeming to them and diverted them from the Right Way, though they were intelligent people.
41.15	As for `Ad, they conducted themselves with arrogance in the land without any justification and said: "Who is stronger than us in might?" Could they not see that Allah Who created them, was mightier than them? Yet they continued to reject Our revelations.
46.21	Tell them the story of 'Ad's brethren, the Prophet Hud, when he warned his people, the residents of Ahqaf - in fact Warners came to them before him and after him - saying: "Worship none but Allah. Surely I fear for you the torment of a mighty Day."

54.18	Likewise the people of 'Ad did not believe then how terrible was My scourge and how clear My Warning!
69.4	The Thamud and the 'Ad people denied the striking calamity.
89.6	Have you not seen how your Rabb dealt with 'Ad?

24.4	Those who accuse a chaste woman of fornication and do not produce four witnesses to support their allegation, shall be flogged with eighty lashes and their testimony shall not be accepted ever after, for they are the ones who are wicked transgressors
24.5	- except those who repent thereafter and mend their conduct; for Allah is surely Forgiving, Merciful.

2.65	You very well know the story of those of you who transgressed in the matter of the Sabbath; We ordered them: "Be detested apes".
2.66	Thus, We made their fate an example to their own people and to succeeding generations, and a lesson to those who are God-conscious.

70.1	A questioner asked you about the punishment which is bound to happen.
70.2	It is for the disbelievers and there is none to avert it.

9.25	Allah has indeed helped you in many battlefields and (recently) on the day of Hunain: when you were proud of your great numbers (the Muslim army was 12,000 strong and the unbelievers were only 4,000), but the numbers availed you nothing. The earth, with all its vastness, seemed to close in upon you, and you turned your backs and fled.
9.26	But Allah sent down His sakeenah (peace and tranquility) upon His Rasool and the believers and sent down to your aid those forces which you could not see, and punished the unbelievers. Thus was the recompense for the unbelievers.

26.91	while hell shall be spread open to the straying
26.92	and they will be asked: "Now, where are those whom you worshipped
26.93	besides Allah? Can they help you or even help themselves?"
26.94	Then they will be toppled into it, both they and those who misled them,
26.95	together with all the armies of Iblees.
26.96	Wherein they will argue with one another
26.97	saying: " By Allah, we were indeed in manifest error,
26.98	when we made you equals with the Rabb of the Worlds.
26.99	It was the criminals who led us astray.
26.100	Now we have no intercessors,
26.101	and no loving friends.
26.102	If we could but once return to our worldly life, we would be of the true believers."
26.103	Surely in this narration there is a great lesson, but most of these people do not learn a lesson to become believers.

23.76	for even now, when We have inflicted punishment on them, they have neither submitted to their Rabb nor humbled themselves towards Him.
23.77	Until when We open upon them a gate of severe punishment, you will see that they are plunged in utter despair.

Surah:
Ayah:
Juz:

25.65	who say: "Our Rabb! Ward off the punishment of hell from us, for its punishment is atrocious
25.66	- certainly it is an evil abode and an evil resting place;"

11.101	We were not unjust to them, but they were unjust to themselves. The deities they invoked beside Allah did not avail them when the judgement of your Rabb came to pass; they added nothing to their lot but perdition.
11.102	Such is the scourge of your Rabb when He seizes a sinful town; indeed, His seizure is terrible and painful.
11.103	In fact, there is a sign in this for those who fear the punishment of the hereafter; that is a Day in which mankind will be gathered together and that will be a Day of Testimony.

40.7	Those angels who bear the Throne of Allah and those who stand around it glorify their Rabb with His praises, believe in Him and implore forgiveness for the believers, saying: "Our Rabb! You embrace all things with your mercy and knowledge. Forgive those who repent and follow Your Way, and save them from the punishment of the blazing fire.
40.8	O Rabb, admit them to the gardens of Eden which You have promised them together with all the righteous among their fathers, their wives and their descendants. You are the All-Mighty, All-Wise.
40.9	Deliver them from all evil. He whom You will deliver from the punishment of their sins on that Day will surely earn Your Mercy and that will surely be the highest achievement.

32.20	But those who transgress shall be cast into the fire. Whenever they try to escape from it, they shall be pushed back into it, and it will be said to them: "Taste the punishment of the fire which you used to deny."
32.21	We shall certainly make them taste the lighter torment in this life before the greater punishment of the hereafter, so that they may return to the Right Way.

39.26	So Allah made them taste humiliation in this worldly life, and the punishment in the life to come shall be even more terrible, if they but knew it.
68.33	Such is the punishment in this life; but the punishment in the Hereafter is even greater, if they but knew it.

11.94	When Our judgement came to pass, We delivered Shu'aib and those who believed with him through Our special mercy. A mighty blast seized the wrongdoers and they lay dead with their faces down in their homes by the morning,
11.95	as if they had never flourished there. Behold! Like Thamud, gone are the people of Median!

5.33	The punishment for those who wage war against Allah and His Rasool and strive to create mischief in the land is death or crucifixion or the cutting off their hands and feet from opposite sides or exile from the land based on the gravity of their offense. This will be their humiliation in this world and in the Hereafter they will have grievous punishment,
5.34	except those who repent before you apprehend them, in such a case, you should know that Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

11.82	When Our Judgement came to pass, We turned the cities upside down and rained down on them brimstones of baked clay, layer upon layer,
11.83	specially marked by your Rabb. Such scourge is not far off from the wrongdoers!

11.97	to Fir'on (Pharaoh) and his chiefs; but they followed the command of Fir'on, and the command of Fir'on was not right.
11.98	He will be in front of his people on the Day of Resurrection, and will bring them down to Hell. How awful will be the place to which they will be brought?
11.99	A curse followed them in this life, and a curse will follow them on the Day of Resurrection. What an evil reward for one to receive.

70.11	though they will see each other. To save himself from the punishment of that Day, the culprit (disbeliever) will wish to give his children,
70.12	his wife, his brother,
70.13	his relatives - who gave him shelter -
70.14	and all that is in the earth, in ransom to save himself.
70.15	By no means! It will be the fire of hell,
70.16	eager to pluck out his skull,
70.17	it will be calling all those who try to escape and turn their back,
70.18	who collected wealth and withheld it.

68.17	Surely We shall try them as We tried the owners of the garden when they swore that they would pluck its fruit the next morning,
68.18	without adding any reservation ( such as God willing).
68.19	So a calamity from your Rabb came down upon it while they slept,
68.20	and by the morning it lay as if it had been already harvested.
68.21	At daybreak they called out to one another,
68.22	saying: "Go out early to your crop, if you want to pick its fruit."
68.23	So they went, whispering to one another:
68.24	"Let no needy person enter upon you in the garden today."
68.25	Thus they went out, fixed in their stingy resolve (not to give any fruit to the poor people, as if they had the full control over harvesting the fruit).
68.26	But when they saw the garden, they cried: "Surely we must have lost our way!
68.27	Nay, we have become destitute."
68.28	The most upright among them said: "Did I not tell you to glorify Allah? Why did you not glorify Him?"
68.29	Then they said: "Glory be to our Rabb! Surely we were unjust,"
68.30	and they started blaming one another.
68.31	Finally they said: "Woe to us! Surely we had become rebellious.
68.32	It may be that our Rabb will give us in exchange a better garden than this: surely to our Rabb do we make our humble petition."
68.33	Such is the punishment in this life; but the punishment in the Hereafter is even greater, if they but knew it.

11.66	When Our Judgement came to pass, We saved Saleh and those who believed with him, through a special grace from Us, from the disgrace of that Day. Indeed your Rabb is All-Strong, All-Mighty.
11.67	A terrible blast overtook the wrongdoers and by the morning they were laying with their faces down in their homes,
11.68	as if they had never flourished there. Beware! Thamud denied their Rabb. Gone are the people of Thamud.

5.38	Male or female, whoever is guilty of theft, cut off the hand (that was used in theft) of either of them as a punishment for their crime. This is exemplary punishment ordained by Allah. Allah is Mighty, Wise.
5.39	But whoever repents after committing the crime and reforms his conduct, Allah will surely turn to him with forgiveness. Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

55.35	We shall create their wives of special creation
55.36	and make them virgins
55.37	beloved by nature, equal in age,
55.38	for those of the right hand.
55.39	Many of them will be from the former
55.40	and many from the later generations.
55.41	As for those of the left hand - how unfortunate will be the people of the left hand!
55.42	They will be in the midst of scorching winds and in boiling water:
55.43	in the shade of a pitch-black smoke,
55.44	neither cool nor refreshing.
55.45	For they lived in comfort before meeting this fate.

6.44	When they neglected the warning they had received, then, instead of punishment, We opened the gates of every kind of prosperity for them; but just as they were rejoicing in what they were given, We suddenly seized them; lo! They were plunged into despair!
6.45	Thus We cut off the roots of the wrongdoers. All praises are due to Allah the Rabb of the worlds.

11.100	These are the stories of the nations which We relate to you; of them some have survived and some have ceased to exist.
11.101	We were not unjust to them, but they were unjust to themselves. The deities they invoked beside Allah did not avail them when the judgement of your Rabb came to pass; they added nothing to their lot but perdition.
11.102	Such is the scourge of your Rabb when He seizes a sinful town; indeed, His seizure is terrible and painful.
11.103	In fact, there is a sign in this for those who fear the punishment of the hereafter; that is a Day in which mankind will be gathered together and that will be a Day of Testimony.
14.9	Have you not heard the information of those who passed away before you, the people of Nuh (Noah), `Ad and Thamud, and those who came after them? Allah Alone knows them. Their Rasools came to them with clear signs; but they bit their hands with their mouths and said: "Certainly we reject the Message with which you have been sent and certainly we strongly doubt the faith to which you invite us."
14.10	Their Rasools responded: "Are you doubting the existence of Allah, Who is the Creator of the heavens and the earth? He is the One Who invites you so that He may forgive your sins and give you respite till your appointed term." They said: "You are nothing but a human like us! You only wish to turn us away from the worship of those deities whom our forefathers used to worship. Bring us some clear sign."
14.11	Their Rasools said to them: "It is true that we are human like yourselves, but Allah bestows His grace of appointing a Rasool on such of His servants as He pleases. It is not in our power to bring you any sign except by Allah's permission, and in Allah let the believers put their trust.
14.12	What reason do we have not to put our trust in Allah, when He has already guided us to the ways of our lives? We shall certainly endure your persecution patiently, and those who want to put their trust, should put their trust in Allah."
14.13	Finally the unbelievers said to their Rasools: "Return to our religion or we will expel you from our land." But their Rabb revealed His will to them: "We shall destroy the wrongdoers
14.14	and give you the land to dwell in after they are gone! This is the reward for the ones who dread My eminence and fear My threats."
14.15	The Rasools called for judgement, (and when the judgement was passed) every tyrant opposer of the Truth was disappointed.
14.16	Hell is next for him wherein he will be given festering water to drink;
14.17	he will sip, but never will be able to swallow. Death will surround him from all sides, yet he will not die; beyond that there will be horrible punishment.
14.18	The parable of the deeds of those who deny their Rabb is that their deeds are like ashes which the wind scatters on a stormy day; they will gain nothing from their deeds, and this is to stray far away from the goal of getting back to Paradise.
22.45	How many townships, teaming with wrong doings, have We utterly destroyed! Today they lie with their roofs fallen in, their wells abandoned, and their lofty castles deserted.
22.46	Have they not traveled through the land? Have they no hearts to learn wisdom, or ears to hear the Truth? Certainly it is not their eyes which are blind, but it is the hearts in their breasts which are blind.
22.47	These people ask you to hasten the threatened punishment. Well, Allah will never go back on His promise. In fact a day of your Rabb (time period in which Allah's decision is executed) is equal to a thousand years of your calculation.
22.48	There have been many townships teeming with wrong doings, to whom at first I gave respite and at the end I smote them. Towards Me is the destination of all.
46.27	We have destroyed the towns which were once flourished around you - and We repeatedly sent them Our revelations so that they may turn to the Right Way.
46.28	- Then Why did not those whom they worshipped besides Allah helped them who they regarded as a means of attaining nearness to Him? But those deities utterly forsake them, because those were nothing but their lies and their false inventions.
47.10	Have they not traveled through the land and see what was the end of those who have gone before them? Allah destroyed them utterly and a similar fate awaits these unbelievers.

26.189	So they disbelieved him, and the torment of the day of darkness (dark clouds carrying Allah's scourge) seized them, and indeed it was the torment of an extremely dreadful day.
26.190	Surely in this story there is a great lesson, but most of these people do not learn a lesson and become believers.

85.17	Have you not heard the story of the warriors
85.18	of Fir'on (Pharaoh) and of Thamud?
85.19	Yet the unbelievers persist in denying the truth,
85.20	although Allah has encircled them from all around.

36.31	Do they not see how many generations We have destroyed before them who will never return to them?
36.32	While each one of them will be brought before Us on the Day of Judgment.
38.3	How many generations have We destroyed before them? When their doom approached, they all cried out for mercy, but it was no longer the time to be saved.

65.8	How many townships have rebelled against the commandments of their Rabb and His Rasools! Stern was Our reckoning with them and exemplary was Our punishment.
65.9	So they tasted the fruit of their misdeeds, and the fruit of their misdeeds was perdition.
65.10	Allah has prepared for them a severe punishment in the Hereafter. Therefore, fear Allah! O men of understanding and faith. Allah has indeed sent down to you an admonition;

27.50	Thus they plotted a plan, and We too plotted a plan which they did not perceive.
27.51	Just see what was the outcome of their plot! We annihilated them completely, together with all their people.
27.52	There lies their houses in desolate ruins as a result of their wrongdoings. Verily in this story there is a lesson for those people who use their common sense.
