- 26:160
The people of Lot denied the messengers
- 26:161
When their brother Lot said to them, "Will you not fear Allāh?
- 26:162
Indeed, I am to you a trustworthy messenger.
- 26:163
So fear Allāh and obey me.
- 26:164
And I do not ask you for it any payment. My payment is only from the Lord of the worlds.
- 26:165
Do you approach males among the worlds
- 26:166
And leave what your Lord has created for you as mates? But you are a people transgressing."
- 26:167
They said, "If you do not desist, O Lot, you will surely be of those evicted."
- 26:168
He said, "Indeed, I am, toward your deed, of those who detest [it].
- 26:169
My Lord, save me and my family from [the consequence of] what they do."
- 26:170
So We saved him and his family, all,
- 26:171
Except an old woman among those who remained behind.
- 26:172
Then We destroyed the others.
- 26:173
And We rained upon them a rain [of stones], and evil was the rain of those who were warned.
- 26:174
Indeed in that is a sign, but most of them were not to be believers.
- 26:175
And indeed, your Lord - He is the Exalted in Might, the Merciful.
- 26:176
The companions of the thicket [i.e., the people of Madyan] denied the messengers

When Shuʿayb said to them, "Will you not fear Allāh?
- 26:178
Indeed, I am to you a trustworthy messenger.
- 26:179
So fear Allāh and obey me.
- 26:180
And I do not ask you for it any payment. My payment is only from the Lord of the worlds.
- 26:181
Give full measure and do not be of those who cause loss.
- 26:182
And weigh with an even [i.e., honest] balance.
- 26:183
And do not deprive people of their due and do not commit abuse on earth, spreading corruption.
