وَمَا مَنَعَنَا أَنْ نُرْسِلَ بِالْآيَاتِ إِلَّا أَنْ كَذَّبَ بِهَا الْأَوَّلُونَ ۚ وَآتَيْنَا ثَمُودَ النَّاقَةَ مُبْصِرَةً فَظَلَمُوا بِهَا ۚ وَمَا نُرْسِلُ بِالْآيَاتِ إِلَّا تَخْوِيفًا
And nothing has prevented Us from sending signs except that the former peoples denied them. And We gave Thamud the she-camel as a visible sign, but they wronged her. And We send not the signs except as a warning.

(Naught hindereth Us from sending portents…) [17:59]. Sa‘id ibn Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Ja‘far informedus> Zahir ibn Ahmad> Abu’l-Qasim al-Baghawi> ‘Uthman ibn Abi Shaybah> Jarir ibn ‘Abd al-Hamid> al-A‘mash> Ja‘far ibn Iyas> Sa‘id ibn Jubayr> Ibn ‘Abbas who said: “The people of Mecca asked the Prophet,Allah bless him and give him peace, to turn al-Safa hill into gold and remove the mountains [surroundingMecca] for them so that they can engage in agriculture. It was said to him: ‘If you wish to wait for themuntil We may select people from them [to believe in you], or you can give them what they have asked for.But if they disbelieve after that, We will destroy them like We destroyed those before them’. He said: ‘No, Iwould rather wait’. And so Allah, glorious and majestic is He, revealed this verse (Naught hindereth Us fromsending portents save that the folk of old denied them…)”.
وَمَا مَنَعَنَآ أَن نُّرْسِلَ بِالاٌّيَـتِ إِلاَّ أَن كَذَّبَ بِهَا الاٌّوَّلُونَ وَءَاتَيْنَا ثَمُودَ النَّاقَةَ مُبْصِرَةً فَظَلَمُواْ بِهَا وَمَا نُرْسِلُ بِالاٌّيَـتِ إِلاَّ تَخْوِيفًا
(59. And nothing stops Us from sending the Ayat but that the people of old denied them. And We sent the she-camel to Thamud as a clear sign, but they did her wrong. And We sent not the signs except to make them afraid (of destruction).)
Sa`id bin Jubayr said, "The idolators said: `O Muhammad, you claim that before you there were Prophets, among whom was one to whom the wind was subjugated, and another who could bring the dead back to life. If you want us to believe in you, ask your Lord to turn As-Safa' into gold for us.' Allah conveyed to him by inspiration (Wahy): `I have heard what they have said. If you wish, I will do what they say, but if they do not believe after that, the punishment will come down upon them, because after the sign has been sent, there is no room for speculation. Or if you wish, I will be patient with your people and give them more time.' He said:
«يَارَبِّ اسْتَأْنِ بِهِم»
(O Lord, give them more time.)'' This was also narrated by Qatadah, Ibn Jurayj and others. Imam Ahmad recorded that Ibn `Abbas said, "The people of Makkah asked the Prophet to turn As-Safa' into gold for them, and to remove the mountains (from around Makkah) so that they could cultivate the land. It was said to him (by Allah): `If you wish, I will be patient and give them more time, or if you wish, I will do what they are asking, but if they then disbelieve, they will be destroyed as the nations before them were destroyed.' He said,
«لَا، بَلِ اسْتَأْنِ بِهِم»
(No, be patient and give them more time.) Then Allah revealed:
وَمَا مَنَعَنَآ أَن نُّرْسِلَ بِالاٌّيَـتِ إِلاَّ أَن كَذَّبَ بِهَا الاٌّوَّلُونَ
(And nothing stops Us from sending the Ayat but that the people of old denied them. ) An-Nasa'i also reported this from the Hadith of Jarir. Imam Ahmad recorded that Ibn `Abbas said: The Quraysh said to the Prophet , "Ask your Lord to turn As-Safa' into gold and we will believe in you.'' He said,
(Will you really do that) They said, "Yes.'' So he asked his Lord, and Jibril came to him and said: "Your Lord conveys His Salam to you and says, `If you wish, I will turn As-Safa' into gold for them, then whoever of them disbelieves after that, will be punished with a torment the like of which has never be seen in creation; or if you wish, I will open the gates of repentance and mercy for them.''' He said,
«بَلْ بَابُ التَّوْبَةِ وَالرَّحْمَة»
(Rather the gates of repentance and mercy.)
وَمَا نُرْسِلُ بِالاٌّيَـتِ إِلاَّ تَخْوِيفًا
(And We sent not the signs except to make them afraid (of destruction).) Qatadah said, "Allah makes people afraid with whatever signs He wills, so that they may learn a lesson and remember and return to Him. We were told that Al-Kufah was shaken at the time of Ibn Mas`ud, who said: `O people, your Lord is rebuking you, so pay heed!''' Similarly, it was reported that Al-Madinah was struck by several earthquakes at the time of `Umar bin Al-Khattab. `Umar said: "You have changed, by Allah, and if such a quake were to strike again, I will subject you to such and such.'' The Prophet said, in a Hadith whose authenticity is agreed upon:
«إِنَّ الشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ آيَتَانِ مِنْ آيَاتِ اللهِ وَإِنَّهُمَا لَا يَنْكَسِفَانِ لِمَوْتِ أَحَدٍ وَلَا لِحَيَاتِهِ، وَلَكِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يُخَوِّفُ بِهِمَا عِبَادَهُ، فَإِذَا رَأَيْتُمْ ذَلِكَ فَافْزَعُوا إِلَى ذِكْرِهِ وَدُعَائِهِ وَاسْتِغْفَارِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ: يَا أُمَّةَ مُحَمَّدٍ وَاللهِ مَا أَحَدٌ أَغْيَرَ مِنَ اللهِ أَنْ يَزْنِيَ عَبْدُهُ أَوْ تَزْنِيَ أَمَتُهُ، يَا أُمَّةَ مُحَمَّدٍ وَاللهِ لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ مَا أَعْلَمُ لَضَحِكْتُمْ قَلِيلًا وَلَبَكَيْتُمْ كَثِيرًا»
(The sun and the moon are two of the signs of Allah, and they are not eclipsed for the death or life of anyone. Allah uses them to make His servants afraid, so if you see them, hasten to remember Him, call on Him and seek His forgiveness.) Then he said: (O Ummah of Muhammad, by Allah, no one has a greater sense of jealousy than Allah if He sees His servant, or female servant, committing Zina (illegal sexual intercourse). O Ummah of Muhammad, if you knew what I know, you would laugh little and weep much.)

Imam Ahmad meriwayatkan dengan sanadnya dari Ibnu Abbas, ia berkata, âPenduduk Mekah meminta kepada Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam agar Beliau mengubah bukit Shafa menjadi emas, dan agar Beliau menjauhkan gunung-gunung dari mereka sehingga mereka dapat menabur benih (untuk bercocok tanam). Lalu dikatakan kepada Beliau, âJika engkau mau, maka engkau dapat menundanya, dan jika engkau mau, maka engkau dapat mendatangkan apa yang mereka minta. Jika setelah diturunkan mereka kafir, maka mereka akan dibinasakan sebagaimana orang-orang sebelum mereka dibinasakan.â Beliau bersabda, âTidak, bahkan aku menunda saja.â Maka Allah âAzza wa Jalla menurunkan ayat ini, âDan tidak ada yang menghalangi Kami untuk mengirimkan (kepadamu) tanda-tanda (kekuasan kami), melainkan karena tanda-tanda itu telah didustakan oleh orang terdahulu. Dan telah Kami berikan kepada Tsamud unta betina (sebagai mukjizat) yang dapat dilihat,â Syaikh Muqbil berkata, âHadits ini dinisbatkan oleh Ibnu Katsir dalam Al Bidayah juz 3 hal. 52 kepada Nasaâi, ia berkata, âSanadnya jayyid.â Ibnu Jarir juga menyebutkannya pada juz 15 hal. 108, Hakim juz 2 hal. 362, ia berkata, âShahih isnadnya, namun keduanya (Bukhari-Muslim) tidak menyebutkannya,â dan didiamkan oleh Adz Dzahabiy. Al Haitsami dalam Al Majmaâ juz 7 hal. 50 berkata, âPara perawinya adalah para perawi hadits shahih.â
Yang diusulkan kaum Quraisy.
Maksudnya, Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala menetapkan bahwa orang-orang yang mendustakan tanda-tanda kekuasaan-Nya ketika datang, akan dimusnahkan tanpa ditunda lagi. Orang-orang Quraisy meminta kepada Nabi Muhammad shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam agar diturunkan pula kepada mereka tanda-tanda kekuasaan Allah itu, tetapi Allah tidak akan menurunkannya kepada mereka, karena kalau tanda-tanda kekuasaan Allah itu diturunkan juga, pasti mereka akan mendustakannya, dan tentulah mereka akan dibinasakan seperti umat-umat terdahulu, sedangkan Allah tidak hendak membinasakan kaum Quraisy untuk menyempurnakan urusan Nabi Muhammad shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam.
Lalu mereka dibinasakan.
Agar mereka berhenti dari sikapnya itu..
