  2. Malik Ghulam Farid translated this verse based upon his own personal experience of the wealthier folks in India and Pakistan. He wrote that the tribe of Thamud like the rich and resourceful people went up and lived in the cooler mountains in summer and stayed down in the warmer plains in winter.
