Tafheem-ul-Quran (En) - Al-A'raaf : 161
وَ اِذْ قِیْلَ لَهُمُ اسْكُنُوْا هٰذِهِ الْقَرْیَةَ وَ كُلُوْا مِنْهَا حَیْثُ شِئْتُمْ وَ قُوْلُوْا حِطَّةٌ وَّ ادْخُلُوا الْبَابَ سُجَّدًا نَّغْفِرْ لَكُمْ خَطِیْٓئٰتِكُمْ١ؕ سَنَزِیْدُ الْمُحْسِنِیْنَ
And recall 120 when it was said to them: 'Dwell in this town and eat plentifully of whatever you please, and say: "Repentance", and enter the gate prostrate. We shall forgive you your sins and shall bestow further favours on those who do good.'
120. This alludes to their constant defiance and rebellion in face of God' favours which eventually brought about their destruction.
