Sura 7 Al-A'raf (The Heights), ayah 73

  1. وَإِلَىٰ ثَمُودَ أَخَاهُمْ صَالِحًا ۗ قَالَ يَا قَوْمِ اعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ مَا لَكُمْ مِنْ إِلَٰهٍ غَيْرُهُ ۖ قَدْ جَاءَتْكُمْ بَيِّنَةٌ مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ ۖ هَٰذِهِ نَاقَةُ اللَّهِ لَكُمْ آيَةً ۖ فَذَرُوهَا تَأْكُلْ فِي أَرْضِ اللَّهِ ۖ وَلَا تَمَسُّوهَا بِسُوءٍ فَيَأْخُذَكُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ

    And to
    ثَمُودَ
    Thamud
    أَخَاهُمْ
    (We sent) their brother
    صَٰلِحًا
    Salih.

    ٱللَّهَ
    Allah,
    مَا
    not
    لَكُم
    for you
    مِّنْ
    any
    إِلَٰهٍ
    god
    غَيْرُهُۥ
    other than Him.
    قَدْ
    Verily
    جَآءَتْكُم
    has come to you
    بَيِّنَةٌ
    a clear proof
    مِّن
    from
    رَّبِّكُمْ
    your Lord,
    هَٰذِهِۦ
    This
    نَاقَةُ
    (is) a she-camel
    ٱللَّهِ
    (of) Allah
    لَكُمْ
    (it is) for you
    ءَايَةً
    a Sign.
    فَذَرُوهَا
    So you leave her
    تَأْكُلْ
    (to) eat
    فِىٓ
    on
    أَرْضِ
    (the) earth
    ٱللَّهِ

    And to the Thamud (We sent) their brother Salih. He said, "O my people, worship Allah; you have no deity other than Him. There has come to you clear evidence from your Lord. This is the she-camel of Allah (sent) to you as a sign. So leave her to eat within Allah 's land and do not touch her with harm, lest there seize you a painful punishment.
