And (also) `Ad and Thamud, and the Dwellers of Ar-Rass, We have already discussed their story, which is referred to in more than one Surah, such as Surah Al-A`raf, and there is no need to repeat it here. As for the Dwellers of Ar-Rass, Ibn Jurayj narrated from Ibn Abbas about the Dwellers of Ar-Rass that: they were the people of one of the villages of Thamud. Ath-Thawri narrated from Abu Bukayr from Ikrimah that: Ar-Rass was a well where they buried (Rassu) their Prophet.

وقرونا بين ذلك كثيرا
