Drinking: the share of water, like irrigation and sustenance, for the portion of irrigation and nourishment. It was recited with a damm.

It has been narrated that they said: We want a she-camel that is pregnant to come out from this rock, so that it gives birth to a male offspring. Thus, صالح sat thinking, and جبريل, blessings and peace be upon him, said to him: Pray two units and ask your Lord for the she-camel. He did so, and the she-camel came out and knelt before them, and it gave birth to a male offspring like it in size. And from أبي موسى: I saw its source, and it was sixty cubits.

And from قتادة: On the day it drinks, it drank all their water, and they have a day of drinking in which it does not drink water with harm, by beating or killing or otherwise. The day is significant for the arrival of the punishment in it, and describing the day with it is more impactful than describing the punishment, because when the time is significant because of it, its significance is greater.
