What things People of Lut (PBUH) did?
A Brief Description of the Question:
What things People of Lut (PBUH) did?
The Answer:
Hazrat Loot is the son of Aaron, Hazrat Ibrahim’s brother. He was sent as a prophet to the people of Sodom who started the practice of homosexuality for the first time. They were destroyed totally, because they did not obey Hazrat Loot and went on that disgusting deed. The following is stated in the verse about it:
“We also (sent) Loot: he said to his people: "Do you commit lewdness such as no people in creation (ever) committed before you? For you practise your lusts on men in preference to women: you are indeed a people transgressing beyond bounds." And his people gave no answer but this: they said "Drive them out of your city: these are indeed men who want to be clean and pure!" But We saved him and his family except his wife: she was of those who lagged behind. And We rained down on them a shower (of brimstone): then see what was the end of those who indulged in sin and crime!” (al-Araf, 7/80-84).
Hazrat Loot (pbuh) was sent as a prophet to the people of Sodom, among whom the meanest deviation, immorality and shamelessness, that is, homosexuality was common. The people of Sodom went too far in the crime of immorality that had not been seen in the previous nations. In that society where chastity, honor and feeling ashamed were forgotten, Hazrat Loot (pbuh) and people like him tried to prevent them from that immorality but they were silenced and made ineffective.
The following is stated in the verse that expresses the immorality and shamelessness of the people of Sodom: " And (remember) Lut; behold he said to his people: "Ye do commit lewdness, such as no people in Creation (ever) committed before you.” (al-Ankaboot, 29/28). In other verses, it is stated that they did not get away with it and that they were destroyed by a tragic torture coming from the sky.
