Commentary
When he said to them. And when they were people of the desert and he, peace be upon him, was a villager, he said: 'Shu'ayb' [and did not say: their brother, as a reference] to the fact that he did not send a prophet except from the people of the villages, honoring them because the blessing and wisdom are in gathering. For this reason, the Prophet, blessings and peace be upon him, prohibited living in the desert after the migration, and said: 'Whoever Allah intends good for, He moves him from the desert to the city.' 'Do you not fear?' meaning: you should be among the people of piety, which is fear of Allah, glorified and exalted is He.
