[Machine] When the messenger of Allah ﷺ camped at Tabuk, he stood up and addressed the people saying, "O people, do not ask your Prophet about signs, for the people of a righteous community asked their Prophet to show them a sign, so Allah sent them a she-camel, and it used to come to them from a certain mountain and they would drink its water on the day of its turn, and they would drink from its milk as much as they wanted. But they transgressed the limits set by their Lord and killed it. So Allah promised them with a punishment for three days which was not seen before. Then the cry came upon them and Allah destroyed all those who were under the sky, from the east and the west, except for a man who was in the sanctuary of Allah and Allah protected him from His punishment." The people asked, "O Messenger of Allah, who was that man?" He replied, "Abu Righal."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَمَّا نَزَلَ الْحِجْرَ فِي غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ قَامَ فَخَطَبَ النَّاسَ فَقَالَ «يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ لَا تَسْأَلُوا نَبِيَّكُمْ عَنِ الْآيَاتِ فَهَؤُلَاءِ قَوْمُ صَالِحٍ سَأَلُوا نَبِيَّهُمْ أَنْ يَبْعَثَ لَهُمْ آيَةً فَبَعَثَ اللَّهُ لَهُمُ النَّاقَةَ فَكَانَتْ تَرِدُ مِنْ هَذَا الْفَجِّ فَتَشْرَبُ مَاءَهُمْ يَوْمَ وِرْدِهَا وَيَشْرَبُونَ مِنْ لَبَنِهَا مِثْلَ مَا كَانُوا يَتَرَوُّونَ مِنْ مَائِهِمْ فَعَتَوْا عَنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّهِمْ فَعَقَرُوهَا فَوَعَدَهُمُ اللَّهُ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَكَانَ مَوْعِدًا مِنَ اللَّهِ غَيْرَ مَكْذُوبٍ ثُمَّ جَاءَتْهُمُ الصَّيْحَةُ فَأَهْلَكَ اللَّهُ مَنْ كَانَ تَحْتَ مَشَارِقِ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَغَارِبِهَا مِنْهُمْ إِلَّا رَجُلًا كَانَ فِي حَرَمِ اللَّهِ فَمَنَعَهُ حَرَمُ اللَّهِ مِنْ عَذَابِ اللَّهِ» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَنْ هُوَ؟ قَالَ «أَبُو رِغَالٍ»  

[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» *  

"يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاس! لا تَسْألوا نَبِيَّكُمْ عَنِ الآيَاتِ، هَؤُلاء قَوْمُ صَالِحٍ سَألُوا نَبِيَّهُمْ أَنْ يَبْعَثَ لَهُمْ آيَةً، فَبَعَثَ اللهُ لَهُمُ النَّاقَةَ، فَكَانَتْ تَرِدُ مِنْ هَذَا الفَجِّ فَتَشْرَبُ مِنْ مَائهِمْ (يَوْمَ وردِهَا، ويشرَبُونَ مِنْ لَبَنِهَا مِثْلَ مَا كَانُوا يتروُّونَ مِنْ مَائِهِم) [فَعَتَوْا عَنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّهِمْ فَعَقَرُوهَا]، فَوَعَدَهُمْ اللهُ ثَلاثَةَ أيَّامٍ وَكَانَ مَوْعُودًا مِنَ اللهِ غَيْرَ مَكْذُوبٍ، ثُمَّ جَاءَتْهُمُ الصَّيْحَةُ فَأهَلَكَ اللهُ -تَعَالَى- مَنْ كانَ تَحْتَ مَشَارِقِ السَّمَواتِ والأرض وَمَغَارِبِهَا مِنْهُمْ إِلا رَجُلٌ (*) كَانَ فِى حرمِ اللهِ -فَمَنَعَهُ حَرَمُ اللهِ مِنْ عَذَابِ اللهِ -أَبُو رِغَال-".
