كَذَّبَتۡ قَوۡمُ لُوطٍ ٱلۡمُرۡسَلِينَ
١٦٠
The prople of Lout
(Lot) (those dwelt in the towns of Sodom in Palestine) belied the Messengers.
(160)
إِذۡ قَالَ لَهُمۡ أَخُوهُمۡ لُوطٌ أَلَا تَتَّقُونَ
١٦١
When their brother Lout
(Lot) said to them: "Will you not fear Allah and obey Him?
(161)
إِنِّي لَكُمۡ رَسُولٌ أَمِينٞ
١٦٢
"Verily! I am a trustworthy Messenger to you.
(162)
فَٱتَّقُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ
١٦٣
"So fear Allah, keep your duty to Him, and obey me.
(163)
وَمَآ أَسۡـَٔلُكُمۡ عَلَيۡهِ مِنۡ أَجۡرٍۖ إِنۡ أَجۡرِيَ إِلَّا عَلَىٰ رَبِّ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ
١٦٤
"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, jinns and all that exists).
(164)
أَتَأۡتُونَ ٱلذُّكۡرَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡعَٰلَمِينَ
١٦٥
"Go you in unto the males of the 'Alamin
(mankind),
(165)
وَتَذَرُونَ مَا خَلَقَ لَكُمۡ رَبُّكُم مِّنۡ أَزۡوَٰجِكُمۚ بَلۡ أَنتُمۡ قَوۡمٌ عَادُونَ
١٦٦
"And leave those whom Allah has created for you to be your wives? Nay, you are a trespassing people!"
(166)
قَالُواْ لَئِن لَّمۡ تَنتَهِ يَٰلُوطُ لَتَكُونَنَّ مِنَ ٱلۡمُخۡرَجِينَ
١٦٧
They said: "If you cease not. O Lout
(Lot)! Verily, you will be one of those who are driven out!"
(167)
قَالَ إِنِّي لِعَمَلِكُم مِّنَ ٱلۡقَالِينَ
١٦٨
He said: "I am, indeed, of those who disapprove with severe anger and fury your
(this evil) action
(of sodomy).
(168)
رَبِّ نَجِّنِي وَأَهۡلِي مِمَّا يَعۡمَلُونَ
١٦٩
"My Lord! Save me and my family from what they do."
(169)
فَنَجَّيۡنَٰهُ وَأَهۡلَهُۥٓ أَجۡمَعِينَ
١٧٠
So We saved him and his family, all,
(170)
إِلَّا عَجُوزٗا فِي ٱلۡغَٰبِرِينَ
١٧١
Except an old woman
(his wife) among those who remained behind.
(171)
ثُمَّ دَمَّرۡنَا ٱلۡأٓخَرِينَ
١٧٢
Then afterward We destroyed the others.
(172)
وَأَمۡطَرۡنَا عَلَيۡهِم مَّطَرٗاۖ فَسَآءَ مَطَرُ ٱلۡمُنذَرِينَ
١٧٣
And We rained on them a rain
(of torment). And how evil was the rain of those who had been warned.
(173)
إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكۡثَرُهُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ
١٧٤
Verily, in this is indeed a sign, yet most of them are not believers.
(174)
وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ
١٧٥
And verily! Your Lord, He is indeed the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful.
(175)
