Pharaoh said:

We will slay their sons, their young sons, as we did the first time and spare their grown up women,

5) The wisdom of the real ancient story of Thamood.

————————————————-

In the previous article:

The leaders of Thamood said unto their Prophet Salih:

If you are truthful in your claim that you are a messenger from Allah, then tell your Lord to bring us a she-camel out of this (specific huge) rock!

Salih said: then you will believe?

They said: oh, yes, sure we will

Salih said: and you will let the she-camel eat and drink without bothering her?

They said: oh, yes, sure we will

Salih said: Look, if you hurt the she-camel you be seized by a severe chastisement

They said: agreed, deal !

Salih prayed to Allah to bring the she-camel out of the specific huge rock that they determined.

Allah did. Miraculously, this she-camel had no father, no mother; it just came out of the rock when Allah has said: Be.

But most of Thamood’s people especially their leaders did not believe in Allah and did not follow the teaching of their Prophet Salih.

the leaders of the arrogant party among his people said to those who were oppressed, to such of them as believed, that is, from among Thamood’s people who were overpowered, despised and weak:

So you know that Salih is sent from his Lord to you?

They, chieftains of Thamood’s people who were scornful, waxed proud, who disdained belief in Salih said that mocking.

The poor people replied: Yes! Truly we believe in the Message with which Salih has been sent.

————————————————-

The meaning of verse 7: 76

The leaders, those who were proud and scornful towards the believers said: ‘Truly we are disbelievers of that which you believe!’

And they broke the deal and did not keep their word that they had given their Prophet Salih.

Not only that but…

 

The meaning of verse 7: 77

They hamstrung the she-camel,

They killed the Most Amazing Camel in the History, the Miraculous Camel that has no Father and no Mother.

They hamstrung her by their command, killing her with a sword

And they flouted the commandment of their Lord,

They refused to accept the commands of their Lord with which Salih enjoined them,

And they, ‘O Salih, bring upon us that which you promised us, in the way of chastisement for our killing it, if you are indeed a messenger’; Bring upon us that which you threaten of torment if you are indeed Allah’s messenger; they said this out of mockery. 

 

The meaning of verse 7: 78

So the Trembling, a violent earthquake and a cry from the heaven, a loud noise announcing their torment, seized them, and they lay lifeless prostrate in their habitations, keeled over their knees, dead without a movement (in their dwelling-place) in their town.

But what about Salih and the believers?

They left them before they were destroyed.

When Salih saw what happened, he said:

 

The meaning of verse 7: 79

Salih turned on them and said: O my people! I delivered my Lord’s message unto you, explaining the commands and prohibitions and gave you good advice; I warned you of Allah’s torment and called you to repent and believe, but you do not listen to those who advise you; you do not love sincere advisers.

 

Herein, in this story, two parties were given advice

The first party was sincere, Salih which is Allah’s messenger.

The second party was dishonest, proud, sarcastic leaders which are Satan’s hosts on the earth.

This story is repeated everyday; the wisdom of the story is to inspect what you hear, what you see, what you read, what you do and look at it;  is it from your Creator Who loves you or from your enemy, the Satan who want you end up in the Eternal Fire!

79) He turned from them, saying: ‘i conveyed to you, my nation the message of my lord and gave you counsel; but you had no love for sincere advisers. ‘

77) So they slew the she-camel and revolted against their lord’s commandment, and they said: o salih! bring us what you threatened us with, if you are one of the messengers

78) Then the earthquake overtook them, so they became motionless bodies in their abode

79) Then he turned away from them and said: o my people i did certainly deliver to you the message of my lord, and i gave you good advice, but you do not love those who give good advice

 

PICKTHAL:

76) Those who were scornful said: lo! in that which ye believe we are disbelievers.

78) So the earthquake seized them, and morning found them prostrate in their dwelling-place.

79) And (Salih) turned from them and said: o my people! i delivered my lord’s message unto you and gave you good advice, but ye love not good advisers.

 

YUSUFALI:

76) The arrogant party said: “for our part, we reject what ye believe in.”

77) Then they ham-strung the she-camel, and insolently defied the order of their lord, saying: “o salih! bring about thy threats, if thou art a messenger (of Allah)!”

79) So Salih left them, saying: “o my people! i did indeed convey to you the message for which i was sent by my lord: i gave you good counsel, but ye love not good counsellors!”

Truly there has come to you a clear proof, an illustration, from your Lord, of my truthfulness, this is the she-camel which Allah brought miraculously as a sign for you, they had asked him to make it come out of a specific rock which they had designated. So leave her to feed throughout Allah’s earth, eat its grass unhindered, and do not touch her with harm, either by hamstringing or beating her, lest you be seized by a painful chastisement.

N.B.:

But most of Thamood‘s people especially their leaders did not believe in Allah and did not follow the teaching of their Prophet Salih.

 

The meaning of verse 7:74

And remember how Allah made you vicegerents, on earth, after the destruction of the people of Aad, and gave you habitations in the land, making castles in its plains, in which you lodge during summer, and hewing its mountains into houses, in which you lodge during winter. So remember Allah’s bounties and believe in Him and do not practice evil, making mischief and do not be degenerate, do not commit transgressions on the earth or seeking corruption and do not call to other than Allah.

It should be emphasized that Thamood people are the vicegerents of Aad; and Aad’s people are the vicegerents of Noah descendants. Nevertheless, the history ignored studying both Aad and Thamood

The meaning of verse 7:65

And, Allah sent, to, the ancient, Aad their brother (their prophet) “Hood”. He said, ‘O my people, worship Allah, affirm His Oneness! You have no god other than Him. Will you not fear Him? and so believe? Will you not ward off the worship of other than Him?’

The meaning of verse 7:66

The council, the leaders, the chieftains, those of his people who disbelieved, said: ‘We truly see you in foolishness, in ignorance, and we truly deem you of the liars’, in what you say.

Why the leaders almost always belied their prophets?

In article 45, the leaders belied the great Prophet Noah, and herein , the leaders of the people belied also their Prophet Hood.

The meaning of verse 7:67

Hood said, ‘O my people, there is no foolishness or ignorance in me, but I am a messenger from the Lord of the Worlds to you.’

The meaning of verse 7:68

Hood said, I convey to you the Messages of my Lord by explaining the commands and prohibitions, and I am your truthful adviser, warning you of Allah’s torment and calling you to repentance and faith, and I am trustworthy in conveying the message of my Lord.

It is also said that this means: you used to consider me a trustworthy person, so how is it that you are now accusing me.

The meaning of verse 7:69

And Hood said:

Or do you marvel that a reminder (prophet hood) from your Lord should come to you through, the tongue of, a man from among you, that he may warn you of Allah’s torment? And remember when Allah made you vicegerents, on earth, after the people of Noah, after the destruction of the people of Noah,

and increased your stature in extension, in strength and in height. (Some said that the tallest of them measured 100 feet, the shortest, 60; they were Giants).

Remember then all the bounties of Allah, His graces, so that you might believe in Him, prosper, triumph and that haply you may escape Allah’s wrath and torment.

I wonder why the History Scholars ignore studying the Ancient Giants Aad?
