Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)

مِّمَّا خَطِيئَـتِهِمْ(Because of their sins) It also has been recited as; (خَطَايَاهُمْ) (their errors.)أُغْرِقُواْ(they were drowned,) meaning, for their numerous sins, rebellion, persistence in disbelief and opposition to their Messengers.أُغْرِقُواْ فَأُدْخِلُواْ نَاراً(they were drowned, then were made to enter the Fire.) meaning, they will be carried from the flood of the seas to the heat of the Fire.
