26.161 . When their brother Lot said unto them : Will ye not ward off ( evil ) ?
26.162 . Lo! I am a faithful messenger unto you ,
26.163 . So keep your duty to Allah and obey me .
26.164 . And I ask of you no wage therefor ; my wage is the concern only of the Lord of the Worlds .
26.165 . What! Of all creatures do ye come unto the males ,
26.166 . And leave the wives your Lord created for you? Nay , but ye are froward folk .
26.167 . They said : If thou cease not , O Lot , thou wilt soon be of the outcast .
26.168 . He said : I am in truth of those who hate your conduct .
26.169 . My Lord! Save me and my household from what they do .
26.170 . So We saved him and his household , every one ,
26.171 . Save an old woman among those who stayed behind .
26.172 . Then afterward We destroyed the others .
26.173 . And We rained on them a rain . And dreadful is the rain of those who have been warned .
26.174 . Lo! herein is indeed a portent , yet most of them are not believers .
26.175 . And lo! thy Lord , He is indeed the Mighty , the Merciful .
26.176 . The dwellers in the wood ( of Midian ) denied the messengers ( of Allah ) ,
26.177 . When Shueyb said unto them : Will ye not ward off ( evil ) ?
26.178 . Lo! I am a faithful messenger unto you ,
26.179 . So keep your duty to Allah and obey me .
26.180 . And I ask of you no wage for it ; my wage is the concern only of the Lord of the Worlds .
