This presentation will tell you about different people that we don’t know much about.
They are mentioned in the Quran

3. Ashab Al-Ayka
Ashab Al-Ayka means people of the wood. Al- Ayka was a town or large stretch of forest land. It seems that the People of the Wood is the other name of the People of Madyan or a group of people living in there neighbourhood. The Prophet Shuayb was sent to them. They were wrongdoers and were, therefore, destroyed by Allah.

4. Ashab Al-Hijr
Ashab Al-Hijr means the people of the rocky land. There is a rocky tract called Jabal Hijr , about 150 miles north of Madinah, south of the Oasis of Tayma. This was the country of the Thamud. They were wrongdoers who rejected the teachings of the messengers. The Prophet Salih was sent to them.
And verily, the dwellers of Al-Hijr (the rocky tract) denied the Messengers. (Al-Hijr 15:80)

5. Ashab Al-Qarya
Ashab Al-Qarya means People of the Village. This village is believed to be Antakya in Turkey, the former capital of Syria under the Romans . Three messengers were sent to them-Sadiq , Saduq and Shalum were sent to them. But the people of the village did not listen to them and asked them to go away. They even stoned to death a man, who answered the call of the prophet. Allah was pleased with him and called him one of the righteous.
It was said (to him when the disbelievers killed him): "Enter Paradise." He said: "Would that my people knew! (Ya-Sin 36:26)
"That my Lord (Allah) has forgiven me, and made me of the honoured ones!" (Ya-Sin 36:27)

6. Ashab Ar-Rass
Ashab Ar -Rass means the People of the Well. Ashab Ar – Rass were based in Madyan. In the district of Al- Qasim of Middle Najid, tere was a town called Ar - Rass, which had many wells. It was situated between Makkah and Basra. The People of Rass may have been the people of Prophet Shuayb. They not only refused to listen to the message of their prophet, but they even threw him into a well. They were completely destroyed because of their sins
"He is only a man who has invented a lie against Allâh, but we are not going to believe in him." (Al-Mu'minun 23:38)

7. Sahib Al-Jannatayn
Sahib Al-Jannatayn were the owners of gardens. Of them one was rich and the other was poor. The rich man had two big gardens which were full of fruits and he thought he would have them forever. He did not think that all the things he had were gifts from Allah. He did not believe that the hour of judgment would come. The next day his gardens were completely destroyed by a rainstorm. He realised his mistake and cried for forgiveness from Allah.
And put forward to them the example of two men; unto one of them We had given two gardens of grapes, and We had surrounded both with date-palms; and had put between them green crops (cultivated fields etc.). (Al-Kahf 18:32)

8. Shaman
He was a secret believer in the Prophet Musa in the Firawn household
Firawn and his people planned to kill the Prophet Musa after he had preached to them
Shaman argued with them about their plan to kill the Prophet Musa
Some people even said Shaman might have been the same person to advise Prophet Musa to leave Egypt after accidentally killing an Egyptian
And there came a man running, from the farthest end of the city. He said: "O Musa (Moses)! Verily, the chiefs are taking counsel together about you, to kill you, so escape. Truly, I am to you of those who give sincere advice." (Al-Qasas 28:20)

9. Tubba The people of Tubba were mentioned in the Quran twice
Tubba was a believer, but his people were wrongdoers hence they were destroyed
Their earliest religion was Sabiasim
Later they practiced Judaism and Christianity
Are they better or the people of Tubba and those before them? We destroyed them because they were indeed Mujrimun (disbelievers, polytheists, sinners, criminals, etc.). (Ad-Dukhan 44:37)
