Tafsir

Scholarly commentary explaining a verse — its context, its meaning and how the scholars have understood it.

Hud 11:60

Word by word

وَأُتْبِعُوا۟ فِى هَـٰذِهِ ٱلدُّنْيَا لَعْنَةً وَيَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَـٰمَةِ ۗ أَلَآ إِنَّ عَادًا كَفَرُوا۟ رَبَّهُمْ ۗ أَلَا بُعْدًا لِّعَادٍ قَوْمِ هُودٍ

And they were [therefore] followed in this world with a curse and [as well] on the Day of Resurrection. Unquestionably, ʿAad denied their Lord; then away with ʿAad, the people of Hūd.

Hafiz Ibn Kathir

فلهذا أتبعوا في هذه الدنيا لعنة من الله ومن عباده المؤمنين كلما ذكروا وينادى عليهم يوم القيامة على رءوس الأشهاد ، ( ألا إن عادا كفروا ربهم [ ألا بعدا لعاد قوم هود ] ) .قال السدي : ما بعث نبي بعد عاد إلا لعنوا على لسانه .
