Hazrat Saleh (A.S.) and the camel:
And to Thamud We sent their brother Salih, who said, ‘My people, worship Allah! You have no other god than Him. A Clear Sign has come to you from your Lord. This is the She-Camel of Allah as a Sign for you. Leave her alone to eat on Allah’s earth and do not harm her in any way or a painful punishment will afflict you.’
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-A’araf (The Heights), Surah # 7: Ayah # 73)
(Salih said,) ‘My people! Here is the she-camel of Allah as a Sign for you. So leave her alone to eat on Allah’s earth and do not inflict any harm on her or you will be overcome by an imminent punishment.’
(Holy Quran, Surah Hud (The Prophet Hud), Surah # 11: Ayah # 64)
Salih said, ‘Here is a she camel. She has a time for drinking and you have a time for drinking–on specified days.’
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-Shu’ara’ (The poets), Surah # 26: Ayah # 155)
To Think on:
Have they not looked at the camel–how it was created?
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-Ghashiyah (The Overwhelming Event), Surah # 88: Ayah # 17)
In Examples:
As for those who deny Our Signs and are arrogant regarding them, the Gates of Heaven will not be opened for them, and they will not enter the Garden until a camel goes through a needle’s eye. That is how We repay the evildoers.
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-A’araf (The Heights), Surah # 7: Ayah # 40)
Then you, you misguided, you deniers will eat from the tree of Zaqqum, filling your stomachs with it and drink scalding water on top of it, slurping like thirst-crazed camels.
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-Waqi’ah (The Inevitable), Surah # 56: Ayah: 51-55)
Proceed to a shadow which forks into three but gives no shade or protection from the flames, shooting up great sparks the size of castles, like a herd of yellow camels.
(Holy Quran, Surah Al-Mursalat (Those Sent Forth, Surah # 77: Ayah # 30-33)
