The story of Lut (Lot in English) is a narrative mentioned in both the Quran and Hadith within the Islamic tradition. Lut is considered a prophet in Islam, and his story is primarily associated with the city of Sodom.

In the Quran, the story of Lut is mentioned in various chapters, including Surah Hud (11:69-83), Surah Al-Ankabut (29:28-35), and Surah Ash-Shu'ara (26:160-175). The key elements of the story are as follows:

1. *Prophethood of Lut:* Lut is chosen as a prophet by Allah to guide his people to righteousness.

2. *Corruption of the People:* The people of Lut engage in immoral behavior acts. They defy the divine laws and reject Lut's teachings.

3. *Divine Warning:* Lut warns his people about the consequences of their sinful actions and advises them to follow the path of righteousness. However, they persist in their disobedience.

4. *The Angels' Visit:* Allah sends angels in the form of handsome young men to Lut. These angels inform Lut about the divine plan to destroy the wicked city.

5. *Salvation of the Believers:* Lut is instructed to leave the city with his family before the punishment descends. Only those who believe in him are to be spared.

6. *Destruction of the City:* Allah's punishment befalls the sinful city, leading to its destruction by a catastrophic event.

References from Hadith also support and elaborate on the story of Lut, providing additional details and insights. Hadith sources related to Lut can be found in collections such as Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim.

It's important to note that the story of Lut in Islam serves as a moral lesson about the consequences of disobedience to divine guidance and the importance of adhering to righteous conduct. The specific verses in the Quran and Hadith narrations provide a comprehensive understanding of the events surrounding Prophet Lut and the fate of his people.
