﴿ وَلَا يَخَافُ عُقْبَٰهَا ﴾

“for none [of them] had any fear of what might befall them.”

The she-camel of the Prophet Salih, in a way, symbolised the principle that one should respect the rights of others and discharge one’s duties to them accordingly, even if they are helpless and weak. It is quite possible that a creature which, to all appearances, is only a ‘she-camel’, may be God’s sign brought before people to test them.
