Translation
And the people of Noah before. Indeed, it was they who were [even] more unjust and oppressing.
Verse interpretation (Tafsir)
He destroyed the people of Noah before the Ad and Thamud. The people of Noah were more unjust and transgressed even more than the Ad and Thamud, because Noah lived amongst them for nine hundred and fifty years inviting them to Allah’s oneness but they did not respond to him.
