Salih was chosen for [[prophethood]] at the age of 16. It is reported that he invited his people to [[monotheism]] until the age of 120, but they did not care about his invitation. Salih told them, "I only ask one thing from your gods and you too can have one request from my [[God]], so that the truth would be revealed." Salih mentioned his request from the idols, but received no answer. But, the idol-worshippers told Salih, "ask your God to draw a camel from inside the mountain", and it happened. The [[Qur'an]] introduced Salih as the prophet of [[Thamud]] who received punishment because of their disobedience of God. People of Thamud were after the people of [['Ad]] and from the Arabs of [[Yemen]]. Based on some commentaries of the Qur'an, the people of Thamud had made 70 idols for worshipping. | Salih was chosen for [[prophethood]] at the age of 16.
