Verses 54-55Verses 48-53

      Here is another part of the story of Salih and his people. There were nine bands of mischief maker in the towns, each band less than ten and more than three in number. They were always against any reform. Each of these bands had their own leader, and belonged to a different tribe.

      When Salih began to enjoin good and forbid evil, the small devilish bands found their interests and material advantages in danger, and to this effect they hatched a plot to slay the prophet and his family in the night by a surprise attack.

      Nine small bands united together and conspired against the prophet's life. The plot was to kill Salih and his family by a night surprise attack, and then deny their crime by swearing that they were not present at the site so that their tribes could not want to exact.

      Such a plot was also planned against our holy prophet Mohammad (SA), but thanks to God that the plot failed.

      Destruction was the end of those devils. They plotted a plan and Allah did plan a plot against them and they were all destroyed, leaving their comfortable houses which had been turned to the nests of corruption, desolated and deprived of inhabitants, in a ruinous condition.

      In the meantime Allah saved those who believed and who were avoiding evil. Some commentators are of opinion that those who were saved with Salih (AS), numbered to four thousands:ِ

      ``And We saved those who believed and were avoiding evil.''
