The Qurʾān · Sūra 26: al-Shuʿarāʾ · verses 141-145

This commentary was written by Claude (Anthropic); it carries no religious authority and should be checked against the classical sources.

26/141-145

كَذَّبَتْ ثَمُودُ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ · إِذْ قَالَ لَهُمْ أَخُوهُمْ صَٰلِحٌ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ · إِنِّى لَكُمْ رَسُولٌ أَمِينٌ · فَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ · وَمَآ أَسْـَٔلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ أَجْرٍ ۖ إِنْ أَجْرِىَ إِلَّا عَلَىٰ رَبِّ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ

Kadhdhabat Thamūdu'l-mursalīn · Idh qāla lahum akhūhum Ṣāliḥun alā tattaqūn · Innī lakum rasūlun amīn · Fa'ttaqū'llāha wa aṭīʿūn · Wa mā asʾalukum ʿalayhi min ajrin; in ajriya illā ʿalā rabbi'l-ʿālamīn

"Thamūd too denied the messengers. · When their brother Ṣāliḥ said to them: 'Will you not guard yourselves? · I am a trustworthy messenger sent to you. · So guard yourselves against God and obey me. · I ask you no wage for it; my wage falls only upon the Lord of all the worlds.'"

ثَمُود and the place of the people of Ṣāliḥ

Thamūd is one of the peoples the Qurʾān names most often, and it has occurred in many places in this commentary: al-Qamar 54/23-31 (the she-camel and the ṣayḥa), al-Fajr 89/9 (alladhīna jābū'ṣ-ṣakhra bi'l-wād — "those who hollowed the rocks in the valley"), al-Shams 91/11-15 (those who hamstrung the she-camel), al-Ḥāqqa 69/5 (fa-uhlikū bi'ṭ-ṭāghiya), al-Dhāriyāt 51/43-45.

Al-Shuʿarāʾ's own contribution is the enumeration of what the people stand to lose (146-149). The other sūras recount the she-camel and the destruction; al-Shuʿarāʾ first counts what they possess.
