Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)

The Rejection of Thamud and Allah's Destruction of ThemAllah informs that Thamud rejected their Messenger because of the injustice and transgression they practiced. This was said by Mujahid, Qatadah and others. Therefore, this resulted in a rejection in their hearts for the guidance and conviction their Messenger came to them with.إِذِ انبَعَثَ أَشْقَـهَا(When their most wicked went forth.) meaning, the most wicked person of the tribe, and he was Qudar bin Salif, the one who killed the she-camel.
