وَأَمْطَرْنَا عَلَيْهِم مَّطَرًا ۖ فَٱنظُرْ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَٰقِبَةُ ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ
لوطؑ کی قوم کے وطن پر بھی ایک شدید زلزلہ آیا تھا جس سے زمین کا تختہ الٹ گیا تھا۔ شدید زلزلوں میں ایسا ہوتا ہے کہ مٹی سینکڑوں فٹ اوپر جاکر پھر گرتی ہے۔ گویا مٹی اور پتھروں کی بارش ہوتی ہے۔ پومپیائی میں بھی ایسا ہوا۔ ۱۹۰۵ء میں کانگڑہ میں بھی ایسا ہوا۔ حال میں ہی کابل کے شمال میں ایک شدید زلزلہ آیا۔ اس میں بھی ایسا ہی ہوا۔
26:174; 27:59.
It often happens in a severe earthquake that rocks and rubble erupt and are carried to a height and then fall back on the earth. This happened at Pompeii; and at Kangra (India) in 1905.
According to some the country round the Dead Sea is the site of the ruined cities. The Qur’an, however, appears to place it on the route from Medina to Syria (15:80).

Commentary:
The houses of Lot’s people were turned upside down. This punishment corresponded to their unnatural offence. The punishment apparently took the form of a severe earthquake which raised portions of the stony soil and buried them under; or the houses had walls of stones and rubble laid in clay and these were violently shattered and the debris thrown all around.
