A long time ago, the great tribe of Ad lived in the South of Arabia. They were very clever and accomplished many things. Using the mountains for their homes, they carved out great mansions with wonderful pillars.

Their city was called Iram, a place of fame and wonder. As time went on, the people of Ad became arrogant. They thought more about themselves and their wealth, and less about Allah. They believed they didn't need Allah because of their power and riches.

In their arrogance, the tribe of Ad turned to bad ways. Gangs sprouted within them, robbing and killing innocent travellers. They thought they were being clever, but they were only being foolish.

Among them was Hud, a good man who didn't align with their wicked ways. He tried to advise them to stop their bad habits and follow Allah's ways. He warned that Allah would punish the wicked, but they wouldn't listen.

The people believed they were smarter than Hud, Allah's messenger. Allah then instructed Hud to take the virtuous ones to a big cave near the city for safety.

Hud followed Allah's instructions and took the good people to the cave, leaving the arrogant ones in the city. They continued to live in denial, believing in their superiority.

The very next day, a terrible tornado came. The city of Iram, once full of life and grandeur, was hit by the devastating storm.

The tornado swept across the city, wiping out the arrogant tribe of Ad. Their great mansions crumbled, and their power and riches couldn't save them from Allah's wrath.

While the city was being destroyed, Hud and the good people were safe in the cave. They had listened to Allah's messenger and were spared from the punishment.

When the storm subsided, they emerged from the cave. They saw the ruins of the city and understood the consequences of arrogance and disrespect towards Allah.

Hud and the good people learnt a valuable lesson that day. They understood the importance of humility, respect for Allah, and the futility of power and wealth without righteousness.

The ruins of Iram served as a reminder of the tribe of Ad's arrogance and downfall. They stood as a testament to the power of faith and the consequences of abandoning it.
