Verse79

(79) فَتَوَلَّى عَنْهُمْ وَ قالَ يا قَوْمِ لَقَدْ أَبْلَغْتُكُمْ رِسالَةَ رَبِّي وَ نَصَحْتُ لَكُمْ وَ لكِنْ لا تُحِبُّونَ النَّاصِحِينَ

79. " Then he turned away from them and said: ' O' my people ! verily I have delivered to you the Message of my Lord, and advised you sincerely; but you do not like sincere advisers '."

Commentary :
The word of Salih to his people is probable to be fulfilled eitherbefore the descent of the chastisement in order to complete the argument, or after their destruction. It can be in the same manner that the Messenger of Allah (p.b.u.h.) also spoke to the dead bodies of disbelievers which were inside the Badr well. The audience asked him (p.b.u.h.) whether they were alive, and the Prophet (p.b.u.h.) said : " yes ".
However, the mission of prophets is to convey the Divine message accompanied with sympathy and benevolene. It is not only a dry, bare communication, like the communication of regulations and circulars in formal offices.
"... and advised you sincerely; ..."
Allah's retributions are given after delivering the message and completing the argument.
"... verily I have delivered to you the Message of my Lord, ..."
By the way, we ought to like the advisers. He who dislikes those who work symphathetically, provides the means of the Wrath of Allah for himself.
"... and advised you sincerely; but you do not like sincere advisers '."
