Sura Al-Ankabut from 31 to 38


31. And when Our Messengers came to Ibrâhîm ( Abraham ) with the glad tidings they said: « Verily, we are going to destroy the people of this [ Lût ( Lot’s ) ] town ( i.e. the town of Sodom in Palestine ) ; truly, its people have been Zâlimûn [ wrong- doers, polytheists disobedient to Allâh, and who belied their Messenger Lût ( Lot ) ] . »
32. Ibrâhîm ( Abraham ) said: « But there is Lût ( Lot ) in it. » They said: « We know better who is there. We will verily save him [ Lût ( Lot ) ] and his family except his wife: she will be of those who remain behind ( i.e. she will be destroyed along with those who will be destroyed from her folk ) . »
33. And when Our Messengers came to Lût ( Lot ) , he was grieved because of them, and felt straitened on their account. They said: « Have no fear, and do not grieve! Truly, we shall save you and your family, except your wife: she will be of those who remain behind ( i.e. she will be destroyed along with those who will be destroyed from her folk ) .»
34. « Verily, we are about to bring down on the people of this town a great torment from the sky, because they have been rebellious ( against Allâh’s Command ) . »
35. And indeed We have left thereof an evident Ayâh ( a lesson and a warning and a sign - the place where the Dead Sea is now in Palestine ) [ 1 ] for a folk who understand.
36. And to ( the people of ) Madyan ( Midian ) , We sent their brother Shu‘aib. He said: « O my people! Worship Allâh ( Alone ) and hope for ( the reward of good deeds by worshipping Allâh Alone, on ) the last Day ( i.e. the Day of Resurrection ) , and commit no mischief on the earth as Mufsidûn ( those who commit great crimes, oppressors, tyrants, mischief- makers, corrupters ) . [ Tafsir At- Tabari ] »
37. And they belied him [ Shu‘aib ] : so the earthquake seized them, and they lay ( dead ) , prostrate in their dwellings.
38. And ‘Âd and Thamûd ( people ) ! And indeed ( their destruction ) is clearly apparent to you from their ( ruined ) dwellings. Shaitân ( Satan ) made their deeds fair- seeming to them, and turned them away from the ( Right ) Path, though they were intelligent.
