    Before bani Israel the other nations in Quran are called by their names like Aad and Samod, why those are not called by their prophet’s name like bani Israel.

    And when in Quran bani Israel is addressed is that means for only those who came after prophet Yaqoob and not for those before him?

    The Qur’an adopts the titles of a people that have already been given to or adopted by them. Bani Israel means that children of Israel, prophet Yaqob. They were the descendents of prophet Yaqob. Ad and Thamud were the known by these names. Also, there were call the Qawm (people) of Hud, the prophet, and Qawm of Saleh, the prophet.
