The Angels coming to LutAllah tells us about when the angels came to Lut in the form of young men with handsome faces. When they entered his home, he said:قَالَ إِنَّكُمْ قَوْمٌ مُّنكَرُونَ - قَالُواْ بَلْ جِئْنَـكَ بِمَا كَانُواْ فِيهِ يَمْتَرُونَ ("Verily, you are people unknown to me." They said: "Nay, we have come to you with that (torment) which they have been doubting.") meaning that they were bringing the punishment and destruction that the people doubted they would ever suffer from.وَآتَيْنَـكَ بِالْحَقِّ(And we have brought you the truth) is like the Ayah,مَا نُنَزِّلُ الْمَلَـئِكَةَ إِلاَّ بِالحَقِّ(We do not send the angels down except with the truth) 15:8 andوِإِنَّا لَصَـدِقُونَ(and certainly, we tell the truth.) They said this in affirmation of the news that they brought him, that he would be saved and his people would be destroyed.
دو حسین لڑکے ٭٭یہ فرشتے نو جوان حسین لڑکوں کی شکل میں حضور لوط علیہ السلام کے پاس گئے۔ تو لوط علیہ السلام نے کہا تم بالکل نا شناس اور انجان لوگ ہو۔ تو فرشتوں نے راز کھول دیا کہ ہم اللہ کا عذاب لے کر آئے ہیں جسے آپ علیہ السلام کی قوم نہیں مانتی اور جس کے آنے میں شک شبہ کر رہی تھی۔ ہم حق بات اور قطعی حکم لے کر آئے ہیں اور «مَا نُنَزِّلُ الْمَلَائِكَةَ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ» ” فرشتے حقانیت کے ساتھ ہی نازل ہوا کرتے ہیں “ [15-الحجر:8] اور ہم ہیں بھی سچے۔ جو خبر آپ کو دے رہے ہیں وہ ہو کر رہے گی کہ آپ نجات پائیں اور آپ علیہ السلام کی یہ کافر قوم ہلاک ہوگی۔صفحہ نمبر4350
آیت 57 قَالَ فَمَا خَطْبُكُمْ اَيُّهَا الْمُرْسَلُوْنَ اب حضرت ابراہیم نے ان سے پوچھ ہی لیا کہ آپ لوگوں کے یہاں آنے کا کیا مقصد ہے ؟ آپ کو کیا مہم درپیش ہے ؟
From verse 48: لَا يَمَسُّهُمْ فِيهَا نَصَبٌ وَمَا هُم مِّنْهَا بِمُخْرَجِينَ (No weariness shall touch them therein nor will they be expelled from there), we learn about two features of Jannah: (1) No one shall ever feel tired or weak. This is contrary to what happens in our mortal world where hard work naturally results in fatigue. In fact, even a state of total rest and fun would sometimes tire a person out, no matter how enjoyable are things one is occupied with. (2) The other feature of Jannah we discover is that the blessings once received there shall be eternal. These blessings shall never diminish nor shall anyone be expelled from there. In Surah Sad, it was said:إِنَّ هَـٰذَا لَرِزْقُنَا مَا لَهُ مِن نَّفَادٍ (This is sustenance provided by Us which is never to exhaust - 38:54). And in the present verse, it was said: وَمَا هُم مِّنْهَا بِمُخْرَجِينَ (nor will they be expelled from there) that is, they shall never be deprived of the state of bliss bestowed upon them. This is contrary to the affairs of the mortal world where the recipient of the best of conveniences lives under the apprehension that the Over of the facilities may become displeased with him one of those days and expel him out.As for the third probability, that the blessings of Jannah may remain everlasting, nor one is expelled from there, but one may himself get bored by living there and wish to go out, the Qur’ an has demolished this probability in one sentence of Surah Al-Kahf with the following words: لَا يَبْغُونَ عَنْهَا حِوَلًا (That is, these people too would never seek to return from there - 18:108).
Lut (Lot) was a contemporary of Ibrahim sent to the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah (identified in the Dead Sea region). The people were notorious for robbery, inhospitality, and sexual deviance toward males. When the angelic visitors came to Lut, his people attempted to assault them. The angels revealed their identity and commanded Lut to flee with his family before dawn; his wife was told not to look back. The cities were then overturned and rained upon with baked stones — destroyed from below and above.
