Collection: City of Thamud
The story of the people of Thamud through selected verses from the Quran:
"And to Thamud [We sent] their brother Saleh. He said, 'O my people, worship Allah; you have no deity other than Him...'" [Quran 11:61]
"And O my people, this is the she-camel of Allah - a sign for you. So leave her to graze in Allah's earth and do not touch her with harm..." [Quran 7:73]
"But they hamstrung her, so he said, 'Enjoy yourselves in your homes for three days. That is a promise not to be denied.'" [Quran 11:65]
"So the earthquake seized them, and they lay (dead), prostrate in their homes." [Quran 7:78]
The interesting part is that the ruins of the city of Thamud is still present.
The Quran even gives more details about them that still matches the current ruins.
"And you carve houses out of the mountains with great skill." [Quran 26:149]
"And Thamûd who carved ˹their homes into˺ the rocks in the ˹Stone˺ Valley;" [Quran 89:9]
Then, has it not become clear to them how many generations We destroyed before them as they walk among their dwellings? Indeed in that are signs for those of intelligence. [Quran 20:128]
Here are some of the current remains of the City of Thamud. You may also find more media on Youtube and Google by conducting a research

[QURAN 52:35]
Or did they create the Heavens and the Earth? Rather, they are not certain.
[QURAN 52:36]
Or do they possess the treasuries of your Lord, or are they in control [of everything]?
[QURAN 52:37]
Or do they have a stairway [into the Heaven] upon which they listen? Then let their listener produce a clear proof.
