attributed to Ibn Sirin, Muntakhab al-Kalam fi Tafsir al-Ahlam

(A known village) indicates itself, and its people, and whatever comes from it and is known by it, because the place indicates its people, as the Almighty said: "And ask the village" — meaning its people.

Muntakhab al-Kalam fi Tafsir al-Ahlam, pp. 487–490

And perhaps the village indicates an abode of injustice, innovations, and corruption, and departure from the community, and deviance from the collective opinion of the people of the city; and for this reason Allah the Almighty branded the dwellings of the wrongdoers in His Book as "villages." And it indicates the ants' nest, and the ants' nest indicates a village, because the Arabs call it a village.

Muntakhab al-Kalam fi Tafsir al-Ahlam, pp. 487–490

So whoever demolishes a village, or ruins it, or sees it laid waste and its inhabitants gone, or a flood has swept it away, or it has burned with fire: if it is a known village, a ruler has tyrannised over it. And that may indicate locusts, hail, calamities, and plague.

Muntakhab al-Kalam fi Tafsir al-Ahlam, pp. 487–490

And whoever blocks up an ants' hole in the ceiling of the house, and likewise in the reverse case, whoever does that with an ants' hole or with snakes' holes, he has transgressed against the people of the village with injustice and aggression, or against a church or a house notorious for debauchery.

Muntakhab al-Kalam fi Tafsir al-Ahlam, pp. 487–490

And whoever sees that he has entered a fortified village, then he will be killed or will fight, because of the words of the Almighty: "They will not fight you all together except within fortified villages."

Muntakhab al-Kalam fi Tafsir al-Ahlam, pp. 487–490

And it is said: whoever sees that he is passing from a town to a village, then he is choosing a lowly matter over a lofty one; or he has done a praiseworthy deed while thinking that something else is praiseworthy; or he has done a good thing thinking it is evil and so turns back from it — and he is not passing through.

Muntakhab al-Kalam fi Tafsir al-Ahlam, pp. 487–490
