Taysir al-Karim al-Rahman by Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di (d. 1956), in the original Arabic.

{ وَثَمُود } قوم صالح، { وَقَوْمُ لُوطٍ وَأَصْحَابُ الْأَيْكَةِ } أي: الأشجار والبساتين الملتفة، وهم قوم شعيب، { أُولَئِكَ الْأَحْزَابُ } الذين اجتمعوا بقوتهم وعَدَدِهمْ وعُدَدِهمْ على رد الحق، فلم تغن عنهم شيئا.
