قَالَ رَسِلَ رَبَّ وَصَلَ سَرَى هَلَكَ قَطَعَ لَيْل لفت أحد مرأ صاب صاب وَعَدَ صَبُحَ لَيْسَ صَبُحَ قرُب


They said, “O Lut, we are messengers of your Rabb; they will never reach you. So, drive away with your family except for your wife at night break-up, and none of you shall look around (look back). She will be (similarly) stricken with the same calamity that would reach them. Indeed, this (decision) is committed for them in the morning. Is the morning not near?”
