Commentary

Zullata – (gloom, shadow), this word is a Noun from zillun, which means “A canopy, the fly of a tent etc.” Zullatun is the thing which spreads over head for safety from the sunlight like a large canopy and provides shade.

On a day, there was severe heat in the township of the folk of Prophet Shu’eyb (peace be upon him). Being confused by the heat of the day, the people came out of their houses. There was no place of shelter for escaping from the heat of the sun. A piece of cloud appeared on the sky like a thatched roof. People of the township considered that possibly there might be coldness below the piece of the cloud. Entire people gathered below it. All at once the fire began to rain from it.

On the other side, an earthquake came, flash and terrible thundering was born, and the people of the township were ruined. Prophet Shu’eyb (peace be upon him) and his companions were saved. The name of that dreadful Day is “Yawmiz-Zullah” (the Day of Gloom).

Prophet Shu’eyb (peace be upon him) said only this after hearing the demand of the folk: The Lord of the Worlds is Aware of your evil deeds. I have caused to understand you and warned you that there would be bad result of opposing. If you do not believe; then your Lord will punish you.

 After that the incident of the “Yawmiz-Zullah” (the Day of Gloom) happened. It is commanded: There is a Portent of Our Power in this accident. Even then most of the people do not believe. Anyhow, as your Lord is the Mighty, along with it He is the Merciful also.
