(11:63) He said, "O my people, have you considered: if I should be upon clear evidence from my Lord and He has given me mercy from Himself, who would protect me from Allah if I disobeyed Him? So you would not increase me except in loss. (11:64) And O my people, this is the she-camel of Allah - [she is] to you a sign. So let her feed upon Allah `s earth and do not touch her with harm, or you will be taken by an impending punishment." (11:65) But they hamstrung her, so he said, "Enjoy yourselves in your homes for three days. That is a promise not to be denied." (11:66) So when Our command came, We saved Salih and those who believed with him, by mercy from Us, and [saved them] from the disgrace of that day. Indeed, it is your Lord who is the Powerful, the Exalted in Might. (11:67) And the shriek seized those who had wronged, and they became within their homes [corpses] fallen prone (11:68) As if they had never prospered therein. Unquestionably, Thamud denied their Lord; then, away with Thamud. (11:69) And certainly did Our messengers come to Abraham with good tidings; they said, "Peace." He said, "Peace," and did not delay in bringing [them] a roasted calf.
