7/10/2023 0 Comments Prophet lut"If home is the place of comfort and rest, then Lut found none, for he was tormented both inside and outside his home. They were under two of Our righteous slaves, but they both betrayed their (husbands, by rejecting their doctrines) so they (Noah & Lut) benefited them (their respective wives) not, against Allah, and it was said, 'Enter the Fire along with those who enter!' " "Allah set forth an example for those who disbelieve, the wife of Noah and the wife of Lot. Lot's wife, like Noah's wife, a disbeliever. No one responded to his call and believed except for the members of his family, and even in his household, not all the members believed. As the years passed, he persisted in his mission but to no avail. Their unwholesome reputation spread throughout the land, while he struggled against them. The doings of Lot's people saddened his heart. "So We saved him and his family, all except an old woman (this wife) among those who remained behind." My Lord! Save me and my family from what they do.' "He said, 'I am indeed, of those who disapprove with severe anger and fury your (this evil) action (of sodomy). "They said, 'If you cease not, O Lot! Verily, you will be one of those who are driven out!' Go you in unto the males of the 'alamin (mankind), and leave those whom Allah has created for you to be your wives? Nay, you are a trespassing people!' No reward do I ask of you for it (my Message of Islamic Monotheism) my reward is only from the Lord of the 'alamin (mankind, jinn and all that exists). So fear Allah, keep your duty to Him, and obey me. "The people of Lot (those dwelt in the towns of Sodom in Palestine) belied the Messengers when their brother Lot said to them, 'Will you not fear Allah and obey Him? Verily! I am a trustworthy Messenger to you. Instead, they threatened to drive him out of the city if he kept on preaching. Swamped in their unnatural desires, they refused to listen, even when Lot warned them of Allah's punishment. It was at the height of these crimes and sins that Allah revealed to Prophet Lut peace be upon him that he should summon the people to give up their indecent behavior, but they were so deeply sunk in their immoral habits that they were deaf to Lot's preaching. This unnatural act later became known as sodomy (after the city of Sodom). Another common evil among them was that men had sex with men instead of with women. Its residents waylaid, robbed and killed travelers. Prophet Abraham peace be upon him left Egypt accompanied by his nephew Lut peace be upon him, who then went to the city of Sodom (Sadum), which was on the western shore of the Dead Sea. Say that the angels were two, and that they ate food. And they have corrupted their scriptures. The Muffasirin say: These angels left Abraham, and were Jibrail, They were Gabriel, Michael and Israfil, this is the saying of Ibnįrom Ibn Kathir's stories of the Prophets Bidaya Wal Nihaya: And Gabriel's task was to destroy Sodom (the last one coincides with Islamic tradition). Michael's task was to give news of Isaac and to rescue Lot. According to the Talmud: Raphael's task was to heal Abraham. Jewish commentaries state that one angel had fulfilled his task on visiting Abraham and didn't proceed to Sodom. The narration of two angels likely comes from the the Torah where three angels visited Abraham, and two visited Lut. From the Sahabah, the more widely accepted report is of three angels: Gabriel, Michael and Israfil (Raphael). In the Quran the number of angels is not mentioned.
