They did worship Allah, which Ill prove soon. You can find the first onehere), Thamud were before time of the Israelites they were same time as the Assyrians who they mixed with. But I digress.

Can someone please answer 89:9 because Im really stuck on this verse. God knows best. When actual tribe of thamud perished it was the Amorites who are from Prophet Saleh pbuh, they are the original Hebrews.

[15], But despite the presence of a tribe called the Thamud as late as the fourth century, sixth-century Arab poets whose works are preserved in post-Islamic sources were already referring to the Thamud as an ancient and long-lost tribe whose very name recalled the transience of all things. One may argue that they existed until 106 CE, i.e. Arab genealogical tradition. Arabian tradition holds that the Thamud kingdom was destroyed by God. Most of the monuments and inscriptions of the archaeological site of Al-Hijr date from the 1st century BCE and the 1st century CE. They were a little more inquisitive (at least at first). So you must also monitor your life for the signs that youre receiving. This shouldnt be surprising as the Quraish, and in fact most faiths, do the same thing. The Aad and Thamud were both located in the northwestern part of modern day Saudi Arabia near the border of Jordan. They are mentioned in the Quran as examples of civilizations that Allah had destroyed because of their sins and as signs of the fleeting nature of the worldly power. Some have shelves carved into the rock; one has a large room, possibly big enough to house a council. One of the main lessons I see is that we must be very careful about mocking or challenging Allah. The most striking thing about the Thamud was the huge buildings and structures they built into the sides of mountains. Arabization and Islamization of Syria began in the 7th century, and it took several centuries for Islam, the Arab identity, and language to spread;[19] the Arabs of the caliphate did not attempt to spread their language or religion in the early periods of the conquest, and formed an isolated aristocracy. Chaldeans formed when actual tribe of thamud perished so you are not correct . 13. They are related to the Banu Abs tribe.[33]. The Nabataean alphabet was adopted by Arabs to the south, and evolved into modern Arabic script around the 4th century. In addition, when the verses talk about Verily there is a sign in this, it doesnt necessarily mean that we have to see the sign i.e. Witch of these sound more like what the verse is meaning, 5. However, they worshiped other deities along with Allah. And As-Saihah (torment - awful cry) overtook the wrong-doers, so they lay (dead), prostrate in their homes, As if they had never lived there. Their dwellings remained but very partially The tribes of 'Ad and Thamud were ancient people who existed on the Arabian Peninsula many centuries ago and were recipients of the Prophets Hud and Salih, respectively. Because inscriptions cannot be relied upon with 100 percent certainty, its possible that the inscriptions are Nabatean while the structures are not. [28] A large Arab migration to Mesopotamia followed the Muslim conquest of Mesopotamia in 634, which saw an increase in the culture and ideals of the Bedouins in the region. Its not an easy read, especially as most of the stories leave the reader perplexed in terms of their relevancy to ones personal life or attainment of anything didactic that enriches or nurtures a relationship with God. Regardless, the thamud tribes structures remained for people to see according to Quran. Another inscription from the same temple mentions Aad by name, and reads, by Ghawth son of Aslah son of Thokam and he constructed the temple of Allt, of the people of Ad. The tribes of Arabia engaged in nomadic herding and agriculture since 6000 BCE. And as for Aad, they were destroyed by a screaming violent windstorm which Allah imposed on them for seven days and eight nights straight. The Edomites can also be a separate nation and through the passage time they shared history, tradition, and custom with the remnants of the Thamud. Archaeologists should do their job the way they do and in case of any finding, they can confirm whether it conflicts with the Quran or not; if it does not, then there is nothing wrong to proceed with it further but if it does, then archaeology needs to be further examined however, such an occurrence would never happen since the Quran is from God. This bears enough similarity to the description of the Thamd dwellings in theQurn to induce certain authors to claim that they are the houses of the Thamd. They very well could be the predecessors of the Edomites as they lived around the same area, and according to the Bible, they practiced the tradition of carving dwellings into the rocks. How archeologists date the tombs and other structures is primarily based on the inscriptions found in them. I do understand why most Christians are unaware of the fine details interspersed within the ponderous and drawn-out book.
