What is the name of the tribe of Prophet Saleh (A.S.)?

Explanation

Prophet Saleh (A.S.) was sent to the people of Thamud, who were known for their skill in carving homes out of mountains. They lived after the destruction of the people of Aad and were blessed with great prosperity. When they rejected Saleh's message and killed the miraculous she-camel sent as a sign from Allah, they were destroyed by a devastating earthquake and thunderous blast.

Good to know

The Thamud were an ancient Arab tribe that inhabited the region of Al-Hijr (Madain Saleh) in northwestern Arabia. Prophet Saleh (A.S.) is mentioned multiple times in the Quran, including in Surah Al-A'raf, Surah Hud, and Surah Ash-Shu'ara. The she-camel of Saleh was a miraculous sign from Allah, emerging from a rock, and the people were warned not to harm it.
