And mention ‘Ād the people of Hūd and Thamūd the people of Sālih and the dwellers at al-Rass al-rass — the name of a ‘well’; their prophet is said to have been Shu‘ayb; although some say it was someone else. The story is that they had been sitting around it on one occasion when it collapsed beneath them burying them together with their dwellings. And many generations peoples in between that is between the people of ‘Ād and the dwellers at al-Rass.
Ibn Abbas Commentary
(And (the tribes of) 'Aad) and We destroyed the people of Hud (and Thamud) the people of Salih, (and the dwellers in Ar-Rass) the people of Shu'ayb, (and many generations in between) We destroyed them all, even though We have not mentioned them by name.
