Behold, their brother Lut said to them: "Will ye not fear (Allah)?

"I am to you a messenger worthy of all trust.

"So fear Allah and obey me.

"No reward do I ask of you for it: my reward is only from the lord of the Worlds.

"Of all the creatures in the world, will ye approach males,

"And leave those whom Allah has created for you to be your mates? Nay, ye are a people transgressing (all limits)!"

They said: "If thou desist not, O Lut! thou wilt assuredly be cast out!"

He said: "I do detest your doings."

"O my Lord! deliver me and my family from such things as they do!"

So We delivered him and his family,- all

Except an old woman who lingered behind.

But the rest We destroyed utterly.

We rained down on them a shower (of brimstone): and evil was the shower on those who were admonished (but heeded not)!

Verily in this is a Sign: but most of them do not believe.

And verily thy Lord is He, the Exalted in Might Most Merciful.

Behold, Shu´aib said to them: "Will ye not fear (Allah)?

"I am to you a messenger worthy of all trust.

"So fear Allah and obey me.

"No reward do I ask of you for it: my reward is only from the Lord of the Worlds.
