The Response of Thamud, Their Demand for a Sign, and Their Punishment

Allah tells us how Thamud responded to their Prophet Salih, upon him be peace, when he called them to worship their Lord, may He be glorified.

Read in Context

Chapter 26, Page 373, Juz 19

141. The (people of) Thamūd rejected the messengers 142. when their brother SāliH said to them, “Do you not fear Allah? 143. I am an honest messenger for you. 144. So, fear Allah and obey me. 145. I do not claim from you any reward for it. My reward is with none but with the Lord of the worlds. 146. Will you be left secure in whatever is here, 147. in gardens and springs, 148. and in farms and date-palms, the spathes of which are interwoven? 149. You hew out houses from the hills with pride. 150. So fear Allah and obey me, 151. and do not obey the order of the transgressors 152. who make mischief on the land and who do not set things right”. 153. They said, “You are merely one of those bewitched. 154. You are nothing but a human like us. So, bring a sign if you are one of the truthful.” 155. He said, “This is a she-camel. She has a share of water, and you have a share of water on a specified day. 156. So do not touch her with evil (intent), lest you should be seized by a painful punishment.” 157. But they killed her, then they became remorseful, 158. and the punishment seized them. Surely, in this there is a sign, but most of them are not believers, 159. and indeed your Lord is the Mighty, the Merciful.
