God says in the Quran:
Sura 91, Page 595, The Quran:
( 1 ) By the sun and its morning
( 2 ) And [by] the moon when it follows it
( 3 ) And [by] the day when it displays it
( 4 ) And [by] the night when it covers it
( 5 ) And [by] the sky and He who constructed it
( 6 ) And [by] the earth and He who spread it
God mentions the wonders of his creation, to add importance to the sentences to follow; he swears with the sun and its morning, the moon as it follows it, the day that displays the sun, and the night that covers the sun. He made the sky, constructed it, made the earth, spreading it.
( 7 ) And [by] the soul and He who proportioned it
( 8 ) And inspired it [with discernment of] its wickedness and its righteousness,
( 9 ) He has succeeded who purifies it,
( 10 ) And he has failed who instills it [with corruption].
God continues. Surprisingly he also swears with the self of humans; the soul. In a direct refrence that wickedness and righteousness live deep within our soul, it is we who are responssible for the growing of that soul into the path of righteousness, also we are responsible for drenching it in bad wickedness.
Succeeded that who purified it.
Failed that who instilled it.
( 11 ) Thamud denied [their prophet] by reason of their transgression,
( 12 ) When the most wretched of them was sent forth.
( 13 ) And the messenger of Allah [Salih] said to them, "[Do not harm] the she-camel of Allah or [prevent her from] her drink."
( 14 ) But they denied him and hamstrung her. So their Lord brought down upon them destruction for their sin and made it equal [upon all of them].
( 15 ) And He does not fear the consequence thereof.
Thamud, an ancient peoples, denied a prophet of God and killed the baby she-camel that God prohibited them from killing.
Like most ancients who denied the prophets, they were destroyed.
