the opposite side in treachery and betrayal. She aided the homosexuals by providing
intelligence day and night through reports such as "The prophet and his compan-
ions told such and such about you," and "They will be meeting at this venue and
will be doing this."
In our day, as revealed with the verse of the Qur'an, "... and some among you
would have listened for them (and spied for them)..." (Surat at-Tawba, 47), hyp-
ocrites support the homosexual community by providing intelligence against
Muslims. In addition, they resort to insidious statements like, "Why do you not al-
low homosexuals?" "Why do you not give them freedom?" or "Why do you not
let them live their lifestyle freely?" with an attempt to legitimize this deviance that
has no place in Islam. It is of no concern to hypocrites that homosexuals are in
deviance; they know this for sure but do not care. Hypocrites only look out for
their own interests, because they have no dignity. They do not have any fear of
God, they do not abide by the moral values of the Qur'an, and they have no con-
cerns for being ethical or avoiding shameful acts as they don't have any respect
for themselves.
This hypocrite woman who supported homosexuals day and night, despite the
fact that she was from the Prophet's household, is a point to notice for all believers.
This woman had turned out to be the head supporter of the homosexuals who
were in utter deviance at that time and she made history like this. In the inter-
pretation of al-Tabari, she is described as follows:
"As for the wife of the Prophet Lot, she used to inform the people of the city
(Sodom), who committed the awful sexual act (sodomy), whenever a guest was
entertained by her husband." (Al-Tabari, Tafsir Ibn Kathir, v.10)
The hypocrite wife of Lot (pbuh) sided with the homosexual community hoping
to derive personal benefits but in the end she could not reach her goals. God per-
ished her together with the deviant people. She faced God's wrath together with
the people whom she became accomplices with in horrible obscenity and indecent
acts. Being the wife of a prophet did not help her at all.

So We rescued him and his family – except for his wife. We ordained her to

be one of those who stayed behind. We rained down a rain upon them. How

evil is the rain of those who are warned! (Surat an-Naml, 57-58)

They said, "Lot, we are messengers from your Lord. They will not be able to

get at you. Set out with your family – except for your wife – in the middle of
the night and none of you should look back. What strikes them will strike
her as well. Their promised appointment is the morning. Is the morning
not close at hand?" (Surah Hud, 81)
