Explanatory Note

Şāliĥ had given them clear warnings, delivering these very seriously, but they feared nothing. Hence, the offence was shared by them all, as also the punishment. They regretted their crime, but such regret was too late. Hence, “So the suffering befell them.” No details are given of the punishment in order to give an impression of the speed of events.
