Verses 62-65Verse 61

      We studied the admonitory story of the people of Äd, which is now followed by that of the Thamood.

      The fate of Äd and Thamood, two mighty peoples of the ancient Arabia, was very awful and shocking. They rejected God's Message and went on their own evil way; and Allah's wrath wiped them out as if they had never existed!

      Salih too, is called their brother in the above verse for being so compassionate and well-wishing to his citizens, as a brother of them could have been. Salih's message in principle was the same as that of other apostles. It was mainly to believe in the only one true God who created them and settled then on the earth to own it and to flourish and prepare it to suit life; and also to get rid of all the idols, fetishes and false gods:ِ

      ``O, my people! Worship Allah! You have no God other than He, Who made you from the earth and assigned you to built, cultivate and flourish it.''

      Worthy of note is here that; Allah has not said to have flourished the earth and then given it to us. On contrary he says that we have to flourish and prepare it for our settlement.
