(Al-Burooj) 85 : 18
فِرْعَوْنَ وَثَمُودَ

Pharaoh and Thamud.

Pharaoh and his troops tried to kill Moses, who was deputed to convey the Lord’s Message. But, as explained in verses 10: 90–92, Allah drowned Pharaoh and his troops in the Red Sea. As explained in verses 27: 48–50, even though the people of Messenger Swalih plotted to kill him, the Almighty Lord destroyed them completely before the dawn on which they intended to kill him. See explanation 10: 103; 30: 47; and 40: 25–27.
