Commentary

And the word 'Qawm' is read in the genitive case meaning: 'And in the people of Noah.' The reading of Abdullah is: 'And in the people of Noah.' It is also read in the accusative case meaning: 'And We destroyed the people of Noah,' because what precedes indicates this. Or 'And remember the people of Noah.'
