Who was Lot?

Lot was the nephew of Abraham, the son of Abraham's brother.

Lot lived towards the southern tip of the Dead Sea. He was the resident of Ur, an ancient town in Mesopotamia.

His people were from Sodom and Gomorrah. Lot believed in Abraham and after their return from Egypt, they settled in separate locations.

God conferred prophethood upon Lot. He was commanded to leave his native land and go to Sodom and Gomorra to warn and reform the people who engaged in sexual acts, intercourse and robbery.

As punishment, rocks rained down on the people of Sodom and Gomorrah that crushed them.
 |  Wikipedia - Lot_in_Islam

Why did God send Lot?

The primary purpose of prophets was to deliver divine guidance, moral laws, and spiritual warnings directly from God to humanity.

Judaism: Speaking truth to power, correcting kings, and calling Israel back to its covenant with God.

Christianity: Foretelling the Messiah (Jesus) and preparing humanity for the Kingdom of God.

Islam: Establishing absolute monotheism (Tawhid) and delivering legal frameworks to every nation.

What was Lot's role?

A nephew of Abraham who was guided out of a corrupt city and serves as an example of righteousness amidst societal decay.

What was Lot's core message to the people?

Flee from systemic moral decay immediately and without hesitation, as lingering near corruption isolates you from divine safety during times of sudden societal judgment.

Story of Prophet Lut in Islam

The story of prophet Lut tells us that he was contemporary of Abraham. He was a nephew and follower of the Faith of his uncle. He was the resident of Ur, an ancient town in Mesopotamia God conferred prophethood upon him. He was commanded to leave his native land and go to Sodom and Gomorra to warn and reform the people who were indulged in grave sins such as homosexual intercourse and robbery.

Description of Lut

Prophet Ibraham left Egypt accompanied by his nephew Prophet Lut , who then went to the city of Sodom (Sadum), which was on the western shore of the Dead Sea.

This city was filled with evil. Its residents waylaid, robbed and killed travelers. Another common evil among them was that men had sex with men instead of with women. This unnatural act later became known as sodomy (after the city of Sodom). It was practiced openly and unashamedly.

Prophet Lut’s Message

It was at the height of these crimes and sins that Allah revealed to Prophet Lut 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 Lut’s preaching. Swamped in their unnatural desires, they refused to listen, even when Lut warned them of Allah’s punishment. Instead, they threatened to drive him out of the city if he kept on preaching.

Allah the Almighty revealed: The people of Lut (those dwelt in the towns of Sodom in Palestine) belied the Messengers when their brother Lut said to them: “Will you not fear Allah and obey Him? Verily! I am a trustworthy Messenger to you. SO fear Allah, keep your duty to Him, and obey me. 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). 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!”

They said: “If you cease not, O Lut! Verily, you will be one of those who are driven out!”

HE said: “I am indeed, of those who disapprove with severe anger and fury your (this evil) action (of sodomy). My Lord! Save me and my family from what they do.”

SO We saved him and his family, all except an old woman (this wife) among those who remained behind. (Ch 26:160-171 Quran)

Lut’s Wife

The doings of Prophet Lut’s people saddened his heart. Their unwholesome reputation spread throughout the land, while he struggled against them. As the years passed, he persisted in his mission but to no avail. 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. Lut’s wife, like Noah’s wife, a disbeliever.

Allah the Almighty declared: “Allah set forth an example for those who disbelieve, the wife of Noah and the wife of Lut. 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!” (Ch 66:10 Quran)

Prophet Lut Prays to Allah for Help

If home is the place of comfort and rest, then Prophet Lut found none, for he was tormented both inside and outside his home. His life was continuous torture and he suffered greatly, but he remained patient and steadfast with his people. The years rolled by, and still not one believed in him. Instead, they belittled his message and mockingly challenged him: “Bring Allah’s Torment upon us if you are one of the truthful!” (Ch 29:29 Quran).

Overwhelmed with despair, Prophet Lut prayed to Allah to grant him victory and destroy the corrupt. Therefore, the angels left Ibraham and headed for Sodom the town of Lut . They reached the walls of the town in the afternoon. The first person who caught sight of them was Lut’s daughter, who was sitting beside the river, filling her jug with water. When she lifted her face and saw them, she was stunned that there could be men of such magnificent beauty on earth.

One of the tree men (angels) asked her: “O maiden, is there a place to rest?”

Remembering the character of her people she replied, “Stay here and do not enter until I inform my father and return.” Leaving her jug by the river, she swiftly ran home.

“O father!” she cried. “You are wanted by young men at the town gate and I have never before seen the like of their faces!”

Prophet Lut felt distressed as he quickly ran to his guests. He asked them where they came from and where they were going.

They did not answer his questions. Instead they asked if he could host them. He started talking with them and impressed upon them the subject of his people’s nature. Lut was filled with turmoil; he wanted to convince his guests without offending them, not to spend the night there, yet at the same time he wanted to extend to them the expected hospitality normally accorded to guests. In vain he tried to make them understand the perilous situation. At last, therefore, he requested them to wait until the night fell, for then no one would see them.

The Mob at Prophet Lut’s House

When darkness fell on the town, Prophet Lut escorted his guest to his home. No one was aware of their presence. However, as soon as Lut’s wife saw them, she slipped out

of the house quietly so that no one noticed her. Quickly, she ran to her people with the news and it spread to all the inhabitants like wildfire. The people rushed towards Lut quickly and excitedly. Lut was surprised by their discovery of his guests. and he wondered who could have informed them. The matter became clear, however, when he could not find his wife, anywhere, thus adding grief to his sorrow.

When Lut saw the mob approaching his house, he shut the door, but they kept on banging on it. He pleaded with them to leave the visitors alone and fear Allah’s punishment. He urged them to seek sexual fulfillment with their wives, for that is what Allah had made lawful.

Lut’s people waited until he had finished his short sermon, and then they roared with laughter. Blinded by passion, they broke down the door. Lut became very angry, but he stood powerless before these violent people. He was unable to prevent the abuse of his guests, but he firmly stood his ground and continued to plead with the mob.

The Punishment

At that terrible moment, he wished he had the power to push them away from his guests. Seeing him in a state of helplessness, and grief the guests said: “Do not be anxious or frightened, Prophet Lut for we are angels, and these people will not harm you.”

On hearing this, the mob was terrified and fled from Luot’s house, hurling threats at him as they left. The angels warned Prophet Lut to leave his house before sunrise, taking with him all his family except his wife.

Allah had decreed that the city of Sodom should perish. AN earthquake rocked the town. IT was as if a mighty power had lifted the entire city and flung it down in one jolt. A storm of stones rained on the city. Everyone and everything was destroyed, including Lut’s wife.

The Angels Meet Ibraham

Allah the Almighty recounted this story: “And tell them about the guests (angels) of Ibraham. When they entered unto him, and said: “Salaaman (peace)!” Ibraham said: “Indeed! We are afraid of you.”

They (the angels) said: “Do not be afraid! We give you glad tidings of a boy (son) possessing much knowledge and wisdom.” (Ibraham) said: “Do you give me glad tidings (of a son) when old age has overtaken me? Of what then is your news?” They (the angels) said: “We give you glad tidings in truth. So be not of the despairing.”

Ibraham said: “And who despairs of the Mercy of his Lord except those who are astray?” (Ibraham again) said: “What then is the business on which you have come, O Messengers?”

They (the angels) said: “We have been sent to a people who are Mujrimeen (criminals, disbeliveers, polytheists, sinners). (All) except the family of Lut. Them all we are surely going to save (from destruction).”

Except his wife, of whom We have decreed that she shall be of the those who remain behind (she will be destroyed).

Then when the Messengers (the angels) came unto the family of Lut, he said: “Verily! You are people unknown to me.” They said: “Nay! we have come to you with that (torment) which they have been doubting. And we have brought to you the truth (the news of the destruction of your nation) and certainly, we tell the truth. Then travel in a part of the night with your family, and you go behind them in the rear, and let no one amongst you look back, but go on to where you are ordered.”

And We made known this decree to him, that the root of those (sinners) was to be cut off in the early morning

The inhabitants of the city came rejoicing (at the news of the young men’s arrival). Lut said: “Verily! These are my guests, so shame me not. And fear Allah and disgrace me not.” They (people of the city) said: “Did we not forbid you to entertain (or protect) any of the Alamin (people, foreigners strangers etc) from us?” Lut said: “These (the girls of the nation) are my daughters to marry lawfully) if you must act so.”

Verily, by your life (O Muhammad), in their wild intoxication they were wandering blindly. So As Saliha (torment, awful cry etc) overtook them at the time of sunrise; and We turned (the towns of Sodom in Palestine) upside down and rained down on them stones of baked clay. Surely! In this are signs for those who see (or understand or learn the lessons from the Signs of Allah). And verily! They (the cities) are right on the highroad (from Mecca to Syria, i.e. the place where the Dead Sea is now). Surely! Therein is indeed a sign for the believers.” (Ch 15:51-77 Quran)

Allah the Exalted also declared: “So we saved him and his family, all, except an old woman (his wife) among those who remained behind. Then afterward We destroyed the others. We rained on them a rain of torment. How evil was the rain of those who had been warned. Verily, in this is indeed a sign yet most of them are not believers. Verily! Your Lord, He is indeed the All Mighty, the Most Merciful. (Ch 26:170-175 Quran)

Lut’s Life after Sodom

The book was closed on the people of Prophet Lut . Their towns and names have been erased from the face of the earth. Gone are they from memory. One book was closed of the books of corruption.

Lut proceeded towards Ibraham . HE visited him, and when he recounted the story of his people, he was surprised to learn that Ibraham already knew. So Lut continued to invite people to Allah, as did Ibraham , the patient one who turned to Allah repentantly, and the two held firm to their mission.
