And never did We send those signs for any other purpose than to convey a warning |
| Muhammad Mahmoud Ghali And nothing prevented Us from sending the signs except that the earliest (people) cried lies to them; and We brought Thamud the she-camel (as) (a thing) beheld, (i.e., for them to behold) yet they did an injustice regarding her.
