quran:2:65 –

And you had already known about those who transgressed among you concerning the sabbath, and We said to them, "Be apes, despised."  

And verily (wa-la-qad: the lām is for oaths) you know that there were those among you who transgressed, violated, the Sabbath, by fishing, when We had forbidden you to do so — these were the inhabitants of Eilat — and We said to them, ‘Be apes, despised!’, rejected, and they became so: they died three days later.
القرآن:٢:٦٥ –

وَلَقَدْ عَلِمْتُمُ الَّذِينَ اعْتَدَوْا مِنْكُمْ فِي السَّبْتِ فَقُلْنَا لَهُمْ كُونُوا قِرَدَةً خَاسِئِينَ  

{ولقد} لام قسم {علمتم} عرفتم {الذين اعتدوا} تجاوزوا الحد {منكم في السبت} بصيد السمك وقد نهيناهم عنه وهم أهل آيلة {فقلنا لهم كونوا قردة خاسئين} مبعدين فكانوا وهلكوا بعد ثلاثة أيام.
