Tafseer
'Abdullāh Ibn 'Abbās / Muḥammad al-Fīrūzabādī
تفسير : (so they plotted a plot) they planned to kill salih and all those who believed with him: (and we plotted a plot) and we wanted to kill them, (while they perceived not) our plotting; it is also said that this means: the angels killed them in the house of salih by hailing stones at them without them perceiving it.
Jalāl al-Dīn al-Maḥallī
تفسير : so they plotted, thereby, a plot, but we [also] plotted a plot, in other words, we requited them by hastening on their punishment, while they were not aware.
