			The story is mentioned in the Quran, and specifically the Stories of the Prophets contain timeless
wisdom
		

			that we can benefit from no matter how many centuries we live after the time of the prophets.
		

			And when you look at the stories in the Quran, and the topics they focus on, sometimes it feels as
if the Quran was revealed for now as if it was revealed to tackle contemporary issues. And one of
the stories that directly addresses a problem that is arising in the world today is the story of the
Prophet lute la sala.
		

			So for the today's Copa, very briefly, we will go over the story of Prophet alayhi salam, and
extract some lessons from it, and offer some advice based on the story for dealing with contemporary
issues.
		

			To begin the story, Luke alayhi salam was the nephew of Prophet Ibrahim Elisa. So when Prophet
Ibrahim alayhi salam first began to preach Islam.
		

			They first began to preach a message of Tawheed only two people believed in him, Sarah and lute, he
married Sarah and they left the city and they went on the on the story that they would ensure we
probably cover that in the hijab, because so he just linked to Scott, the Prophet Ibrahim Alayhi
Salam. But his nephew, Luke also had to leave the city as the only believer there. And he also
became a prophet and he was sent to a different city to preach Islam in that city. Now, Luke Alayhis
Salam.
		

			One thing that's unique about his story is that it's mentioned with the stories of the parish
nations right of the nations that were destroyed for their sins. But it's the only one not mentioned
with the name of the city. So very interesting point. When you read the story to the parish nations
in Surah, Aarav Surah, hood Surah Shuara. Every city is mentioned by name besides one. So we have
the city of odd that received the prophethood Ali Salah, the city of the mood that received the
Prophet
		

			salallahu Alaihe Salam, the city of Medina that received the Prophet Shriver les salaam, and then we
have Omar loot, the people that loot was sent to no cities mentioned my name for this group only.
And the scholars mentioned multiple reasons why the city is not mentioned by name. One is because
people were already familiar with the name. So if you look at the stories of Hood and Solly, enjoy,
these are stories not found in other religions. So you know, this was new information for the
people. But the story of Nutella Islam is well known to Jews and Christians and the names of the
cities are well known in the Bible, right the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, which is where the word
		

			* comes from. And this, these names were already known to the people. Another reason mentioned
is that the crime or the sin of the people of loot, was so severe and so disgusting in the sight of
Allah, that he didn't want to mention that there my name, not even the city by name, like, they
didn't deserve to be mentioned my name at all. This is an explanation given by some of the early
scholars for why the name of the city is left out, that the crime was so
		

			abhorrent to the Creator that what they had done.
		

			So we know that every prophet they were sent to a community, that community had a specific crime or
sin, that they were, they were that was unique to them, and the quote brought about the love of
Allah. And
		

			with the people of loot Allah Islam, they were multiple crimes, but one stands out, there's one
that's mentioned over and over again in the Quran explicitly, and nowadays is a group of people who
are trying to hide these verses or reinterpret these verses or spreading the meaning of the verses.
But the verses are very clear.
		

			And I'll try to be as polite as possible in translating these verses because there's children Yeah,
but nonetheless, listen to the message of Luke Ali salaam to his people. Note Ali Salam said, while
Newton is called, he called me to an alpha, he said the Masaba can be harming her demeanor. aalameen
When Luke told these people, you are committing an immorality that no one before you in the history
of this world has ever done. So the first point will
		

			Is that the crime of the people of luda lay Salem was a fascia. It was a sexual immorality. It was
something of a immoral nature. The word far he shows us. The second thing we learned is that they
were the first people in history to do this. They were the first people in history to commit this
crime.
		

			Right the sin then he explains what this is. And he's so explicit. It's, it's ridiculous. There are
people today trying to reinterpret these verses because the verses are so explicit and clear. He
says, In the Quran, let the atuna Regera shahada mean dunya Nisa, you are fulfilling your desires
are men instead of women, but uncommon was revealed you have exceeded all bounds. So very clear. The
crime of the people of loot was that they fulfilled their sensual desires on men instead of women.
Homosexuality was the crime of the people of loot Ali Salam. Now we know today some people have
tried to reinterpret this. And if you really have looked at the verses and tried to fit in the
		

			reinterpretation, it makes it really bizarre. Because what what the modern groups are trying to see
is that this surah is not talking about homosexuality, they say it's talking about *.
		

			Now, does that make any sense? If you fulfilling your desires on men say a woman? If he's talking
about *? What would be the conclusion of that verse? I wouldn't I don't want to say just think
about it. How bizarre that sounds? Right? How ridiculous that sounds. It's not it's talking about
actual, you know, consensual intimacy. So this verse is very clear. It's very explicit. And if you
open any book of Tafseer, within the past 1400 years, they all have the exact same explanation for
this verse. There is no two opinions, there is no difference of opinion, there is no room for
interpretation. This is a matter of each month. It is a matter of consensus, every school of
		

			thought, every Madhab even crossed Sunni and Shia lines, there is consensus that this is something
that is prohibited. It's not even something like one school of thought has a different opinion.
There has always been a consensus in Islam, that this kind of relationships that are being promoted
today in the West, is haram. Right? Our religion makes it very clear the only kind of
		

			intimate relationship that's allowed is between a man and his wife. Right? And the only type of
intimate relation that's allowed is in marriage between a man and his wife. Right in terms of modern
terms, all these other modern relationships are clearly prohibited in the Quran.
		

			And the people of loot responded Makana joba Camila and Cole who actually do them in Korea. They
come in the homeowners with the Doha rule. His people said kick him out of the city because these
people want to be pure. So he's people try to expel him from the city for his crime. Yetta Haroon,
he wants to live a chaste life. He wants to live a modest life. And by the way, society is moving in
that direction. Society today is moving in that direction, where 20 years ago they called for gay
rights. Now the calling for forcing you to teach your children about it. 20 years time you will be a
criminal for not being gay. They're moving in that direction where before you know it. They will
		

			want to kick us out for being announced to get into housing for people who want to be pure.
		

			In another studio, Shura Shuara again, is mentioned very explicitly at the attune as to Quran Amina
al Amin. Are you lusting after the men of the world? What are the Runa Mahalia kala Komarov will
come in as logical and you are casting aside those who Allah created to be your lives, while untung
Coleman are doing you are people who have gone astray. You are people who have transgressed or
boundaries. Again, how much more explicit can the Quran get at the attune as Khurana Mina Amin, you
are lusting after the men of the world. For a man to desire a man in that way is something that is
prohibited to act on such desires.
		

			And the third please read the message of luteus mentioned Surah Namo divinity next Euro again the
same message, while Luton is cordially call me to an alpha he should I want him to see rune when
Luke said to his people, are you committing immorality when watching each other? So this is another
crime that the community did they will actually do this since openly in front of each other right?
It wasn't even done behind closed loop closed doors. Intercom ladder tuner Regina shahada mean dunya
Nisa again very very clear, no room for interpretation in in a GM letter a tuner Regina shahada mean
dunya in yourself Are you fulfilling your desires on men instead of woman now you fulfilling your
		

			desires on men instead a woman but uncommon dej alone but you people are ignorant. Well Monica and
the jojoba call me Elon called aka you all eluded me in Korea they come in the homeowners show you
that to Haroon and again the same line is repeated from the other Surah these people's response was
simply kick loot and his family out these people want to be pure. So the story of noodling, Sam
continues and it says that for years he tried preaching to his people, he tried to get them to come
back to the street Park.
		

			At the street party, we mean straight, like, you know, even in the other sense of the word straight,
and they didn't want to listen. And then eventually, Allah sent his visa but he came in a very
unique way. The ASABE of Allah comes in a very unique way to these people. And Allah sins, three
angels in the form of handsome young men. And these angels go and visit Ibrahim alayhi salam, and he
served them food, they don't eat the food, they realize their angels. And he asked him what they're
doing. And they say they're going to destroy the people of loot. And he Brian Murray, Sam's wife
starts to laugh. Right that finally these people are getting what, what they deserve. Right? She
		

			starts to laugh. And he blindly slumped hug, give them a chance, give them time to repent, and it's
too late. Allah azab has come, right. So they go to the city, and loot or Islam and he sees these
young men, he realized that the men of the city are going to try and molest X Men. So he tries to
hide these young men from the people of the city. And his wife betrays him, and tells the people of
the city that we have these men in our home come and do what you want to them. Right. So this is
where the other angle comes in, right where they were literally for these three men, they were
trying to force themselves on them. And so this is when the men revealed themselves to be angels.
		

			And they destroyed the city, leaving only lewd al Islam and his family, except his wife, they
punished his wife as well. The entire city were destroyed, including the wife of Nutella salaam, and
India, multiple lessons. Number one, you know, people say what's the big deal? The big deal is that
this is something so sinful in the sight of God, that He destroyed a nation void and mentioned the
story multiple times in the Quran. Right? If this was a small thing, this was something normally
this was something that you know, it's okay. No big deal about it. Why would Allah mentioned a story
in the Quran of him destroying an entire community for this, and he mentioned the story over and
		

			over again, in multiple students, we look at Surah Namo. He doesn't even mention the story of the
other parish nations, he doesn't mention either the mood or margin, he only mentions the story of
Suleyman and the story of loot. Right. So the story is mentioned more times than the other parish
nations. And it's made very clear what their crime was, it means made very clear what your sin was.
And we have to mention this today, because there is a strong movement today to change the religion.
You see, throughout history, there have always been people who commit these sins. And they've always
been people who had these inclinations. But if we do something private, and they knew it was a sin,
		

			they committed a sin in private there was between them and Allah, what we have today is two bigger
problems. Number one, is they made this an identity, they made it the identity. So it's not just a
sin, it's the identity is who they are. This is something new people never made this identities
before.
		

			To build your entire identity on who you're attracted to. It's a very bizarre and new thing in human
history. Number two, and this is the worst part, this is the biggest problem that we face today,
people are trying to change the religion. This is where the biggest problem comes in. You see, if
someone's converting a Sunni and private that's between them and Allah. But when someone is trying
to change the religion of Allah is someone who is saying, oh, there's room for interpretation, or
there's a new meaning to that verse, or your understanding is outdated. There's a new interpretation
of the surah. When people are now trying to change the meaning of the Quran, to suit their own
		

			desires. This is not just a sin, this is now stepping into the level of cover of leaving the fold of
Islam of messing with Allah's law of missing with Allah's words. And this is a very dangerous
problem that is now starting to spread amongst the younger generation, our younger generation are
growing up in a world where these types of relationships are normalized. In every movie, and every
TV series and every cartoon in every video game, these things are normalized. And they normalized to
such a level that the kids grow up, if you don't teach them what Islam says on these topics. If you
don't have conversations with your kids, if you don't sit your son down, explain to them what's the
		

			natural way and what's expected of them when they grow up that you as a boy shouldn't be attracted
to girls, and you should marry a woman. And we expect you to get married to a woman one day to have
children one day, this is the natural if you don't have these conversations with your kids, and
they're absorbing these movies and they're absorbing these TV series, and they're going to non
Muslim school, they've been indoctrinated with this, then we're going to have a big problem 510
years down the line. Because we'd have a generation who won't even think this is wrong. We'll have a
generation who won't even think this is wrong. And we've seen this already with other sins, right?
		

			Because remember, this comes at the tail end, or maybe in the middle of a series of other sins that
we have realized over time. It sounds back in the 1960s where people are fighting for the rights to
fornicate. Right, and we thought that will never spread to the Muslim community. Now this is just
something that a non Muslims are doing. But now in our communities dinner is normal amongst the
youth. You know, we don't even we don't even people don't even bat an eyelid when they hear somebody
committed Zina. It's become so normalized, that this culture has become completely normal that It's
haram. It's a major sin, but people don't
		

			Think of it as that anymore. And this is a continuation of that because what happened in the West is
first they normalized fornication, then they normalized adultery, then they went to gay rights, then
they went to lesbian rights, then they go into transgender rights. We don't know what's coming next,
I have three or four ideas him, I don't want to mention them, right, because kids may be traumatized
when they hear them. But there's a lot of more filthy things down the line that they want to try and
normalize. And this is a slippery slope going deeper and deeper into immorality. And as Muslims, we
have to be clear what our moral boundaries are.
		

			So it's important that every Muslim knows that these kinds of intimate relationships are only
allowed between husband and wife. And the natural ways for a man to be attracted to a woman and to
be a dramatic a woman. And that these other kinds of relationships are sinful. If somebody is
committing the sin and admitting that it's a sin, they're still a Muslim, but they're committing a
sin. If somebody's trying to change the religion, they're now overstepping the boundaries, and
they're now stepping into very dangerous territory. And this is something that's important for us to
repeat. It's something that needs to be taught to our children. The story of Luke Ali Salaam is
		

			something every Muslim home should be familiar with. It's something that should be preached and
every member is something that should be taught in every Muslim school.
		

			The Islamic norms when it comes to intimacy should be something our teenagers should be learning. So
that they are not confused by the messages being put upon them by the by the broader society. We ask
Allah to guide us We ask Allah to protect us We ask Allah to purify us We ask Allah to allow our
tongues to speak only that which is true superhydrophobic Robin is at Yama is the phone was salam

			it's important for us to understand this topic from multiple angles and so inshallah this won't be
the last clip on this topic. We will discuss some other perspectives in later footpaths this month.
But
		

			couple more points I want to mention today,
		

			the wife of loot alayhi salam is specifically singled out in the Quran. As an example of the
disbeliever by Allah subhanaw taala insalata Hareem. He specifically says the example of the
disbelievers is the wife of new and the wife of loot. The wife of loot eraser and what was her
crime. She was not a homosexual. She was not a lesbian. Her crime was she was the ally. She
supported them. She said they had the right to do it. Right. She wanted him to enjoy all of this.
She didn't see anything wrong what they were doing. And just for being their ally, she also was
punished by Allah, she also faced the same punishment as them.
		

			So what this teaches us is that as Muslims, we cannot ally with immorality. We cannot be allies to
immoral movements.
		

			A fundamental of our religion that's mentioned in the Quran. As you know Allah, Samantha says you
are the best of people brought forth for mankind. Why? You're the best of people brought forward for
mankind, that Maroondah NASA Bill Maher, Ruth, waterhole and Ivanka that you command people what is
good and you forbid what is evil? This is a fundamental of being a Muslim, that we forbid what is
evil and we command what is good. And we are reaching a point in history, we Muslims, and now the
only ones left, who are prohibiting what is evil, and promoting what is good in this area. Other
religions are trying to change the scriptures, you know, they're trying to accommodate. They're
		

			trying to hide the story, raise it from the from the scriptures. In reality, if you had to be honest
with yourself, right, and this I would say to any normal estimator watching this, be honest with
yourself in your scripture, you will find that these type of relationships are prohibited in every
religion, every religion, it's not just Islam, every religion prohibits these type of relationships.
The problem is, over time people adjusted the scriptures to accommodate the masses. And Islam. We're
not allowed to do that. Our religion is from Allah. And we are responsible for conveying the message
of Allah and protecting the message of Allah and commanding what is right and forbidding what is
		

			evil. So yes, sometimes that will mean that we will be the minority, but we need to stick to what is
right.
		

			Finally, one last point for today people ask what's the harm? Right? This is the good this is the
question is what's the harm to people is their private business, the consenting adults, how does it
harm you? Well, there are multiple harms to the broader society when these things are normalized.
You see if two
		

			People did a sin in private, and they accepted as a sin and nobody knows they did it besides them.
Yes, that is their own business between them and Allah. Right, they should make doba. That's a
private business, for when people are celebrating these things, and they're proud of these things,
and they're displaying it in public, this corrupts every level of society. And what we are seeing in
a modern world today, now, we are seeing marriage falling apart, we are seeing divorce rates
skyrocketing. We have the largest number of unmarried people in the 40s and 50s, who will never get
married. We have children growing up not knowing who their fathers are. We have children who are
		

			completely confused about any every aspect of their lineage. They don't know who their father is, or
who the grandfather is, or who the great grandfather's are, it's a complete mess, right? We have
people who are suicidal and depressed because they are confused about who they are and what their
purpose in life is. When you mess with the family system, the natural family system that Allah
created, when you mess with that it has ripple effects throughout society. And Allah created a very
simple system that works. You created men and woman to be attracted to each other, that attraction
leads to marriage, marriage, these two children, their children are raised by a mother and a father,
		

			both of whom play their role in raising those children, to children grow up well. And this continues
for generations and generations. Anyway, down the line, you break it up with something else you
bring in something different, is going to have ripple effects not just on the individual, but on the
entire family. And when these things are done publicly, they have major effects on the entire
community. So we ask Allah to protect our children and our next generation from these training
people who are trying to change the religion and to end from being brainwashed by the broader
society. We ask Allah to protect us and allow us to understand the religion in its proper context.
		

			We ask Allah to guide our hearts we ask Allah to change the tide of the world back in favor of
morality to end this, this wave of immortality that's spreading across the world. We ask Allah to
give us the strength to speak that which is true. And we ask Allah to give us the strength to
believe in that which is true and to stand by that which is true, even if you're the only ones doing
so. Robin Artina Virginia Hasina will accurately Hasina walking out Governor Robina hub dynamic as
