Conjunction وَ (and)

وَلَقَدْ (And certainly) starts with وَ, the most common Arabic word — it means "and".

We add "and" to connect this to what came before.

Emphatic لَ (indeed)

وَلَقَدْ (And certainly) starts with لَ for emphasis — it's like saying "indeed!" or "certainly!".

We add "indeed" or "certainly" to show the emphasis.

And We had certainly sent to Thamūd their brother Ṣāliḥ, [saying], "Worship Allāh," and at once they were two parties conflicting.
