Then on the Day of Judgement...

Then on the Day of Judgement, some of you will deny the others, and some of you will curse the others. Your abode will be the fire and you shall not have any helpers. And Lut believed in him. He said, I flee to my Lord, surely He is the Mighty, the Wise. We granted him Ishaq and Y'aqub, and We placed Prophethood and the Book in his progeny. We gave him his reward in the world, and indeed in the Hereafter he will be among the righteous.

And (remember) Lut when he said to his people: you commit an indecency which none of the people of the worlds has done. What! do you approach the males, and rob on the highway, and commit evil deeds in your assemblies? But his people did not answer except to say: Bring us the punishment of Allah if you are truthful. He said: My Lord, help me against the corrupt people.

When our messengers came to Ibrahim with the good news, they said: We are going to destroy the people of this town, surely its people are unjust. He (Ibrahim) said: Amongst them is Lut. They said: We know better who is amongst them. We will deliver him and his followers, except his wife; she shall be of those who remain behind. When our messengers came to Lut, he was grieved for them and felt powerless to protect them. They said: Do not fear, or grieve.

We will deliver you and your followers except your wife, she shall be of those who remain behind. We are bringing down upon the people of this town a punishment from heaven for their transgression. And certainly We have left a clear sign of it for a people who understand. To Madyan (We sent) their brother Shu`aib. He said: O my people, worship Allah and hope for the last day and do not act corruptly on the earth, making mischief.

But they denied him, so a severe earthquake seized them and they became motionless in their abodes. And (We destroyed the peoples of) `Ad and Thamud, and this is clear to you from their abodes. Shaytan made their deeds fair­-seeming to them, so he kept them back from the path although they had insight. And (We destroyed) Qarun, and Fir`awn and Haman. Indeed Musa came to them with clear signs but they were arrogant on earth, although they did not overtake (us).

So each We seized for his sin; among them was he on whom we sent a violent storm, and among them was he whom the blast seized, and among them was he whom we caused to be swallowed by the earth, and among them was he whom We drowned. Allah does not do injustice to them but they are unjust to themselves.
