People of Lut (as)
People of Lut (as)
Lut (as) was cornered by his wife and his community. His people had turned against the norms. Homosexuality became a custom / a trend. Talk against it or call it bad, and you are outcast.
Allah (swt) has been overshadowing His intent on this world. Anything that transgresses to hurting His favourites. Fitna crossing limits. People making good disappear. He does not let us abuse His authority beyond a limit. Either He loosens His grip upon us, that we forget His presence. Or He puts hurdles in our paths, that we find shelter from Him.
People of Lut (as) did not return. After the hurdles, life hitting hard, failures, they did not gather courage to return to Lut's message. They doubted the world about to surround them. Doubted, how non-existent this life is compared to the world we are about to enter. Doubted life is a miracle. Doubted Allah. And chose dark over Light.
Pointed stones showered upon them. In their sleep, they were buried under layers of dust. The short life was over. And they entered the life of tremendous justice. A place of no endings — in a momentous blink.
Surah Hud, 69 - 83
