So We opened the floodgates of heaven with water pouring down.
And We made the earth burst with springs, and the waters met for a purpose already destined.
And We carried him on a craft of planks and nails.
Sailing before Our eyes; a reward for him who was rejected.
And We left it as a sign. Is there anyone who would take heed?
So how were My punishment and My warnings?
We made the Quran easy to learn. Is there anyone who would learn?
Aad denied the truth. So how were My punishment and My warnings?
We unleashed upon them a screaming wind, on a day of unrelenting misery.
Plucking the people away, as though they were trunks of uprooted palm-trees.
