They were angels who do not eat
What did the wife of Ibrahim عليه السلام say upon hearing the good news that she will be blessed with children?
"It is impossible, I can never give birth"

The message of Shu'ayb عليه السلام for his people was:
"Injustice on earth is allowed if others are unjust to you"
"Give full measure and weight in justice and do not deprive people their due right"
" Walk on this earth with pride and don't worry about being just and true all the time."
Allah ﷻ would not have destroyed the cities...
If the people were sleeping all the time
If the people were busy socializing with each other
If the people were reformers
