Chapter Introduction
Translation: Allah said:
Translation: " Has the story of the honored guests of Abraham (the three angels, Gabriel and another two) reached you? * When they came in to him and said: " Salam. (Peace be upon you)! " He answered: " Salam, (peace be upon you), " and he said:
Translation: " You are a people unknown to me. " * Then he turned to his household and brought out a roasted calf (as the property of Abraham was mainly cows.) * And placed it before them, (saying): " Will you not eat? * " (51: 24-27) And
Translation: " And his people came rushing towards him (the Messenger of Allah Lot), and since aforetime they used to commit crimes (sodomy), he said: " O my people! Here are my daughters (i.e. the women of the nation), they are purer for you (if you marry them lawfully). So fear Allah and disgrace me not with regard to my guests! Is there not among you a single right-minded man? * " (11: 78)
