[Aa`raf 7:74] "And remember when He made you successors of A’ad and gave you a region in the earth, so you now build palaces in the soft plains and carve houses in rocks; therefore remember Allah’s favours and do not roam the earth spreading turmoil."

[Aa`raf 7:75] The proud leaders of his people (mockingly) said to the weak Muslims, "Do you know that Saleh is (really) the Noble Messenger of his Lord?" They said, "We believe in whatever he has been sent with."

[Aa`raf 7:76] The proud ones said, "We deny what you have believed in."

[Aa`raf 7:77] So they hamstrung the she-camel and rebelled against the command of their Lord and said, "O Saleh! Bring upon us what you promise us, if you are a Noble Messenger."

[Aa`raf 7:78] Therefore the earthquake seized them, so at morning they remained lying flattened in their homes.

[Aa`raf 7:79] Saleh therefore turned away from them and said, "O my people! Indeed I did deliver my Lord’s message to you and wished you good, but you do not want well-wishers." (The people in the graves can hear the speech of those who are on earth.)

[Aa`raf 7:80] And We sent Lut - when he said to his people, "What! You commit the shameful acts which no one in the creation has ever done before you?"

[Aa`raf 7:81] "You lustfully go towards men, instead of women! In fact, you have transgressed the limits."
