He said: “ Do you approach males among the worlds, and leave those whom your Lord has created for you as your wives? Nay, you are a people of transgressing!” Prophet Lut then broached the matter of homosexuality and informed them that it was indeed an immoral practice.

My reward is only from the Lord of the Worlds.” So fear Allah, keep your duty to Him, and obey me.” Puzzled, the men of the city began discussing amongst themselves: “ This man has entered our city, and is telling us to cease what we are doing? Clearly, he is gaining something out of this!” Prophet Lut replied: “ No reward do I ask of you for it. Soon Prophet Lut approached the men of the city and reminded them of their Lord: “Will you not fear Allah and obey Him? Verily! I am a trustworthy Messenger to you. He was well-aware that his nation was the most corrupt nation of that time but he held firm faith and hoped and prayed that they would soon see the error of their ways and enter into the path of Allah. Pleased with the Prophethood and his new mission, Prophet Lut soon settled in Sodom and began to devise ways to bring his people in to the fold of Islam.

They were immensely proud of their conduct, spoke openly about it, and engaged in these immoral behaviors out in the open. This shameful practice was the norm amongst this nation, and the entire population engaged in it. Homosexuality was introduced into the world by the people of Lut-none in the history of mankind had ever experienced or practiced homosexuality before Sodom.

But, the most notorious act of evil that was committed by this corrupt nation was homosexuality. Travellers passing Sodom were often waylaid and robbed of their belongings, and sometimes were mercilessly murdered. However, Sodom was also the most corrupt city with the highest criminal activity during that time. Sodom was a thriving city that was visited by many travellers, merchants and businessmen for trade. Allah instructed the new Prophet to travel to the city of Sodom, located on the border of Jordan and Palestine, and summon the transgressors back to the worship of Allah. Ibrahim, together with Lut, often travelled far, across land and sea, trying to invite and spread man to the fold of Islam.ĭuring Ibrahim’s and Lut’s migration to Palestine, they received the divine decree of Allah that Lut had been chosen as a Prophet and Messenger for the people of Sodom. Prophet Lut loved, respected and believed in Ibrahim’s message even when everyone ridiculed him. Prophet Lut (“Prophet Lot”) was born and raised by his uncle Prophet Ibrahim, may peace be upon him.
