[Abraham] said, "Then what is your business [here], O messengers?"

      

Saheeh International

They said, "Indeed, we have been sent to a people of criminals,

      

Saheeh International

Except the family of Lot; indeed, we will save them all

      

Saheeh International

Except his wife." We [i.e., Allāh] decreed that she is of those who remain behind.1

     

Saheeh International

And when the messengers came to the family of Lot,

    

Saheeh International

He said, "Indeed, you are people unknown."

       

Saheeh International

They said, "But we have come to you with that about which they were disputing,

    

Saheeh International

And we have come to you with truth, and indeed, we are truthful.

              

Saheeh International

So set out with your family during a portion of the night and follow behind them and let not anyone among you look back and continue on to where you are commanded."

         

Saheeh International

And We conveyed to him [the decree] of that matter: that those [sinners] would be eliminated by early morning.
