۞ وَإِلَىٰ ثَمُودَ أَخَاهُمْ صَـٰلِحًۭا ۚ قَالَ يَـٰقَوْمِ ٱعْبُدُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ مَا لَكُم مِّنْ إِلَـٰهٍ غَيْرُهُۥ ۖ هُوَ أَنشَأَكُم مِّنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَٱسْتَعْمَرَكُمْ فِيهَا فَٱسْتَغْفِرُوهُ ثُمَّ تُوبُوٓا۟ إِلَيْهِ ۚ إِنَّ رَبِّى قَرِيبٌۭ مُّجِيبٌۭ ٦١
And unto (the tribe of) Thamud (We sent) their brother Salih. He said: O my people! Serve Allah, Ye have no other Allah save Him. He brought you forth from the earth and hath made you husband it. So ask forgiveness of Him and turn unto Him repentant. Lo! my Lord is Nigh, Responsive.
And to Thamud [We sent] their brother Salih. He said, "O my people, worship Allah; you have no deity other than Him. He has produced you from the earth and settled you in it, so ask forgiveness of Him and then repent to Him. Indeed, my Lord is near and responsive."
And to Thamud We sent their brother Sali'h. He said: 'My people! Serve Allah; you have no god other than Him. He brought you into being out of the earth, and has made you dwell in it. So ask Him to forgive you, and do turn towards Him in repentance. Indeed My Lord is near, responsive to prayers.
يَقُولُ تَعَالَى: وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا ﴿إِلَى ثَمُودَ﴾ وَهْمُ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا يَسْكُنُونَ [[في ت: "يستكبرون".]] مَدَائِنَ الْحِجْرِ بَيْنَ تَبُوكَ وَالْمَدِينَةِ، وَكَانُوا بَعْدَ عَادٍ، فَبَعَثَ اللَّهُ مِنْهُمْ [[في ت، أ: "فيهم".]] ﴿أَخَاهُمْ صَالِحًا﴾ فَأَمَرَهُمْ [[في أ: "فأمره".]] بِعِبَادَةِ اللَّهِ وَحْدَهُ [لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ الْخَالِقِ الرَّازِقِ] [[زيادة من أ.]] ؛ وَلِهَذَا قَالَ: ﴿هُوَ أَنْشَأَكُمْ مِنَ الأرْضِ﴾ أَيِ: ابْتَدَأَ خَلْقَكُمْ مِنْهَا، [مِنَ الْأَرْضِ الَّتِي] [[زيادة من ت، أ.]] خَلَقَ مِنْهَا أَبَاكُمْ آدَمَ، ﴿وَاسْتَعْمَرَكُمْ فِيهَا﴾ أَيْ: جَعَلَكُمْ [فِيهَا] [[زيادة من ت، أ.]] عُمَّارا تُعَمِّرُونَهَا وَتَسْتَغِلُّونَهَا، لِسَالِفِ ذُنُوبِكُمْ، ﴿ثُمَّ تُوبُوا إِلَيْهِ﴾ فِيمَا تَسْتَقْبِلُونَهُ؛ ﴿إِنَّ رَبِّي قَرِيبٌ مُجِيبٌ﴾ كَمَا قَالَ تَعَالَى: ﴿وَإِذَا سَأَلَكَ عِبَادِي عَنِّي فَإِنِّي قَرِيبٌ أُجِيبُ دَعْوَةَ الدَّاعِ إِذَا دَعَانِ﴾ الآية [البقرة: ١٨٦] .
