Lut and His Call Here Allah tells us about His servant and Messenger Lut, peace be upon him.
He was Lut bin Haran bin Azar, the nephew of Ibrahim Al-Khalil, upon him be peace.
Allah sent him to a mighty nation during the lifetime of Ibrahim, peace be upon them both.
They lived in Sadum ( Sodom ) and its environs, where Allah destroyed them and turned the area into a putrid, stinking lake, which is well-known in the land of Al-Ghur the Jordan Valley, bordering the mountains of Jerusalem, between the mountains and the land of Al-Karak and Ash-Shawbak.
He called them to Allah, to worship Him alone with no partner or associate, and to obey the Messenger whom Allah sent to them.
He forbade from disobeying Allah and committing the sin that they had invented which was unknown on earth before their time; intercourse with males instead of with females.
Allah said: أَتَأْتُونَ الذُّكْرَانَ مِنَ الْعَـلَمِينَ - وَتَذَرُونَ مَا خَلَقَ لَكُمْ رَبُّكُمْ مِّنْ أَزْوَجِكُمْ بَلْ أَنتُمْ قَوْمٌ عَادُونَ - قَالُواْ لَئِن لَّمْ تَنتَهِ يلُوطُ لَتَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْمُخْرَجِينَ - قَالَ إِنِّى لِعَمَلِكُمْ مِّنَ الْقَـلِينَ
