ذِكْرُ السَّبَبِ الَّذِي مِنْ أَجْلِهِ اسْتَحَقَّ قَوْمُ صَالِحٍ الْعَذَابَ مِنَ اللَّهِ جَلَّ وَعَلَا
[Machine] When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to the Hijr, he said, "Do not ask your prophet for miracles. These people demanded a miracle from their prophet, so a she-camel came to them from this valley and went out from this valley, and they would drink its milk on the day of its turn, equal to their water supply. But they harmed it, so they were given a punishment of three days, and the promise was not false. Then the cry overtook them, and there was not a single person left under the sky except the one in the sanctuary who was protected from the punishment of Allah." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, who was he?" He said, "Abu Righal, the father of Thaqeef."
لَمَّا جَاءَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْحِجْرَ قَالَ «لَا تَسْأَلُوا نَبِيَّكُمُ الْآيَاتِ هَؤُلَاءِ قَوْمُ صَالِحٍ سَأَلُوا نَبِيَّهُمْ آيَةً فَكَانَتِ النَّاقَةُ تَرِدُ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ هَذَا الْفَجِّ وَتَصْدُرُ مِنْ هَذَا الْفَجِّ فَيَشْرَبُونَ مِنْ لَبَنِهَا يَوْمَ وُرُودِهَا مِثْلَ مَا غَبَّهُمْ مِنْ مَائِهِمْ فَعَقَرُوهَا فَوُعِدُوا ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَكَانَ وَعْدٌ غَيْرُ مَكْذُوبٍ فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ الصَّيْحَةُ فَلَمْ يَبْقَ تَحْتَ أَدِيمِ السَّمَاءِ رَجُلٌ إِلَّا أَهْلَكَتْ إِلَّا رَجُلٌ فِي الْحَرَمِ مَنَعَهُ الْحَرَمُ مِنْ عَذَابِ اللَّهِ» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَنْ هُوَ؟ قَالَ «أَبُو رِغَالٍ أَبُو ثَقِيفٍ» *
