Ibn Abbas Commentary

(But they hamstrung her) they killed her. She was killed by Qudar Ibn Salif and Musda' Ibn Zahr who divided its meat on 1500 homes, (and then he said) Salih said to them after they killed the camel: (Enjoy life in your dwelling-place) in your township (three days!) for Allah's chastisement will come upon you on the fourth day. They asked him: �What is the sign of this chastisement?� He said: �You will wake up the first day with pale faces; on the second day your faces will be red and on the third your faces will become dark. Chastisement will come upon you on the fourth day�. (This) chastisement (is a threat that will not be belied) will not be repelled.
