سُوْرَةُ هُوْدٍ
Surah Hud (11) — Ayah 60
وَأُتْبِعُوا۟ فِى هَـٰذِهِ ٱلدُّنْيَا لَعْنَةً وَيَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَـٰمَةِ ۗ أَلَآ إِنَّ عَادًا كَفَرُوا۟ رَبَّهُمْ ۗ أَلَا بُعْدًا لِّعَادٍ قَوْمِ هُودٍ ﴿60﴾
Translation by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Dr. Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali
And they were pursued by a curse in this world and (so they will be) on the Day of Resurrection. No doubt! Verily, ‘Âd disbelieved in their Lord. So away with ‘Âd, the people of Hûd.

60. So a curse followed them in this world [68], and will follow them on the Day of Resurrection as well. Behold! The people of ‘Ad denied their Lord. Behold! Away with ‘Ad, the people of Hud [69].
[68] That is, whenever they are mentioned, it will not be in good words, and this curse will not leave them even on the Day of Resurrection.
[69] That is, the first ‘Ad were destroyed in this way, then after them, the people of Thamud became renowned in the world, who are also called the second ‘Ad, and to whom Salih ؑ was sent. The mention of this nation is coming up next. In this regard, also consider the footnotes of Surah Al-A‘raf, verses 73 to 79.
