Tafsir
So We exacted retribution from them, by destroying them through extreme heat. And certainly both of them, that is, the cities of the people of Lot and those of [the dwellers in] the wood, are upon a open road, plain [to see]: so will you not take heed from their example, O people of Mecca?
"The Destruction of the Dwellers of Al-Aykah, the People of Shu`ayb
Allah tells;
وَإِن كَانَ أَصۡحَابُ الَايۡكَةِ لَظَالِمِينَ
فَانتَقَمۡنَا مِنۡهُمۡ وَإِنَّهُمَا لَبِإِمَامٍ مُّبِينٍ
And the Dwellers of Al-Aykah, were also wrongdoers. So, We took vengeance on them. They are both on an open route, plain to see.
The Dwellers of Al-Aykah, were the people of Shu`ayb.
Ad-Dahhak, Qatadah and others said that;
Al-Aykah refers to intertwined trees.
Their evildoing included associating partners with Allah (Shirk), banditry and cheating in weights and measures. Allah punished them with the Sayhah (the awful cry or torment), the earthquake, and the torment of the Day of Shadow. They lived near the people of Lut, but at a later time, and the people of Lut were known to them, which is why Allah says,
وَإِنَّهُمَا لَبِإِمَامٍ مُّبِينٍ
They are both on an open route, plain to see.
Ibn Abbas, Mujahid, Ad-Dahhak and others said,
""a visible route.""
This is why, when Shu`ayb warned his people, he said to them,
وَمَا قَوۡمُ لُوطٍ مِّنكُم بِبَعِيدٍ
And the people of Lut are not far off from you! (11:89)"
