Tafheem-ul-Quran (En) - Al-Furqaan : 38
وَّ عَادًا وَّ ثَمُوْدَاۡ وَ اَصْحٰبَ الرَّسِّ وَ قُرُوْنًۢا بَیْنَ ذٰلِكَ كَثِیْرًا
Likewise were destroyed the `Ad and the Thamud and the people of the Rass, 52 and many a generation in between.
52 There is no definite knowledge about "the people of the Raas'' . Different commentators have said different things about them, but nothing is convincing. The only thing that may be said about them is that they were a people who had killed their Prophet by throwing him into or hanging him down a "Rass " (an old or dry well).
