Origin[]

Saleh also spelled Salih is a prophet mentioned in the Quran who prophesied to the tribe of Thamud in ancient Arabia, before the lifetime of Prophet Muhammad. According to Muslim tradition, the people of Thamud virtually relied upon Saleh for support. He was chosen by God as a Messenger and sent to preach against and to condemn the practice of shirk (idolatry or polytheism). The people for Thamud refused to hear his warning and asked Saleh to perform a miracle for them. Tribal leaders refused to listen to him and continued to demand that he demonstrate a miracle to prove his prophethood.

In response, God gave the Thamud a blessed she-camel, as both a means of sustenance and a test. The tribe was told to allow the camel to graze peacefully and avoid harming her. But in defiance of Saleh's warning, the people of the tribe hamstrung the camel. Saleh informed them that they had only three more days to live before the wrath of God descended upon them. All the disbelieving people in the city were killed by plague, earthquake and finally lightning strikes.

Effects[]

Affects those with moderate to strong levels of religious faith, being unable to impact those with weak or non-existent beliefs. Makes those who adhere to the tenets of their doctrine gain a steady supply of sustenance. Foodstuffs, donations and helpful hands continually come their way without asking in small events, but with high recurrence rates.

Those which scoff at their teachings, or choose to live counter to the morals they supposedly follow, will beset with lightning strikes the next moment they falter. The worse they violate their laws, the more times they will be hit. May sometimes also cause bouts of sickness or personalized tremors if the punishment is more appropriate to their lifestyle.
