By the will of God, there was no rain for seven years in the land of [[Ahqaf]] which was a green and productive land and they suffered from famine. Then, God sent a black cloud to punish them. A freezing gale began to blow at them which was so powerful that took them off the ground into air like trunks of palm tree and dropped their corpses on the ground. It killed all the people of 'Ad. From among them, only Prophet Hud (a) and his companions survived the punishment. They had hid in a pit by the order of God. [[al-Sayyid Ni'mat Allah al-Jaza'iri|al-Jaza'iri]] quoted from al-Wahhab that there are reports of some very cold days called days of "Bard al-'Ajuz" (cold old woman) in the history of Arabs and some considered them the mentioned punishment of the people of 'Ad. | ||
