Read in Context

Chapter 26, Page 373, Juz 19

141. The people of Thamud, too, called the messengers liars. 142. Their brother Salih said to them, ‘Will you not be mindful of God? 143. I am a faithful messenger to you: 144. be mindful of God and obey me. 145. I ask no reward from you, for my only reward is with the Lord of the Worlds. 146. [Do you think] you will be left secure for ever in what you have here- 147. gardens, springs, 148. fields, palm trees laden with fruit- 149. carving your fine houses from the mountains? 150. Be mindful of God and obey me: 151. do not obey those who are given to excess 152. and who spread corruption in the land instead of doing what is right.’ 153. They said, ‘You are bewitched! 154. You are nothing but a man like us. Show us a sign, if you are telling the truth.’ 155. He said, ‘Here is a camel. She should have her turn to drink and so should you, each on a specified day, 156. so do not harm her, or the punishment of a terrible day will befall you.’ 157. But they hamstrung her. In the morning they had cause to regret it: 158. the punishment fell upon them. There truly is a sign in this, though most of them will not believe: 159. your Lord alone is the Almighty, the Merciful.
