The Response of the People of Hud, and Their Punishment

Allah tells us how the people of Hud responded to him after he had warned them, encouraged them, and clearly explained the truth to them.

Read in Context

Chapter 26, Page 373, Juz 19

123. The people of Ad, too, called the messengers liars. 124. Their brother Hud said to them, ‘Will you not be mindful of God? 125. I am a faithful messenger sent to you: 126. be mindful of God and obey me. 127. I ask no reward of you, for my only reward is with the Lord of the Worlds. 128. How can you be so vain that you set up monuments on every high place? 129. Do you build fortresses because you hope to be immortal? 130. Why do you act like tyrants whenever you attack someone? 131. Be mindful of God and obey me; 132. be mindful of Him who has provided you with everything you know- 133. He has given you livestock, sons, 134. gardens, springs- 135. for I truly fear that the torment of a grievous day will overtake you.’ 136. They replied, ‘It makes no difference to us whether you warn us or not, 137. for we only do what our forefathers used to do: 138. we shall not be punished.’ 139. They denounced him as a liar, and so We destroyed them. There truly is a sign in this, though most of them do not believe: 140. your Lord alone is the Almighty, the Merciful.
