[116] The people had no proof or argument, so they began with pressure and force instead.
This is the case with all followers of falsehood — and this marks the second stage of denial.
[117] In response to the opposition of the people, the Prophet began to show humility before Allah the Exalted.
This is the Prophet’s testimony to the denial of his people — meaning they have not accepted faith up to this point, nor have they repented from their denial.
Therefore, they are deserving of punishment.
[118] This supplication is a prayer for harm upon the people, because he had lost hope in their belief due to the revelation from Allah the Exalted — as mentioned earlier in Surah Hud.
It is also a prayer for the salvation of the people of faith.
Fath (opening) here means a clear and decisive judgment, and what is meant by it is the punishment upon this people.
[119] This is the acceptance of the second supplication.
(الْفُلْكِ) here is a singular masculine noun, and for this reason, its adjective is also in the masculine form.
[120] This is the acceptance of the first supplication.
(الْبَاقِينَ) is mentioned because, besides them, no other humans remained in the world — only they were left after the salvation of the believers.
[121,122] This is another example of punishment upon the denying enemies and the salvation of the believers.
[from 123 to 127] This is the fourth incident, in which the people of ‘Ād denied the truth, so punishment descended upon them.
A summary of the message of Hud (peace be upon him) is presented in five statements.
