Then see the nature of the consequence of their plotting, for lo! We destroyed them and their people, every one. (51)

See, yonder are their dwellings empty and in ruins because they did wrong. Lo! herein is indeed a portent for a people who have knowledge. (52)

And we saved those who believed and used to ward off (evil). (53)

And Lot! when he said unto his folk: Will ye commit abomination knowingly? (54)

Must ye needs lust after men instead of women? Nay, but ye are folk who act senselessly. (55)

But the answer of his folk was naught save that they said: Expel the household of Lot from your township, for they (forsooth) are folk who would keep clean! (56)

Then We saved him and his household save his wife; We destined her to be of those who stayed behind. (57)

And We rained a rain upon them. Dreadful is the rain of those who have been warned. (58)

Say (O Muhammad): Praise be to Allah, and peace be on His slaves whom He hath chosen! Is Allah best, or (all) that ye ascribe as partners (unto Him)? (59)

Is not He (best) Who created the heavens and the earth, and sendeth down for you water from the sky wherewith We cause to spring forth joyous orchards, whose trees it never hath been yours to cause to grow. Is there any Allah beside Allah? Nay, but they are folk who ascribe equals (unto Him)! (60)
