                    and obey Allah and His Messenger. Allah desires to remove
                    all impurity from you, O People of the House, and to puri-
                    fy you completely. (Surat al-Ahzab, 30-33)
                    Our Lord cites the wives of the Prophet Lot (pbuh) and the
               Prophet Noah (pbuh) to serve as a deterrent in this matter.

               Allah  also refers to Pharaoh's wife, who is a fine model of sin-
               cerity, fear and respect of Allah, and heartfelt prayer:
                    Allah has made an example for those who do not believe:
                    the wife of Noah and the wife of Lot. They were married
                    to two of Our servants who were righteous, but they be-
                    trayed them and were not helped at all against Allah. They
                    were told: "Enter the Fire along with all who enter it."
                    Allah has made an example for those who believe: the
                    wife of Pharaoh when she said: "My Lord, build a house in
                    the Garden for me in Your Presence, rescue me from
                    Pharaoh and his deeds, and rescue me from this wrongdo-
                    ing people." (Surat at-Tahrim, 10-11)



                                 The Destruction Is Sent


                    Prophet Lot (pbuh) first informed the Prophet Abraham
               (pbuh) of the news he had received from the angels:
                    He [Abraham] inquired: "What, then, is your business,
                    messengers?" They said: "We have been sent to a people of
                    evildoers to unleash upon them lumps of clay earmarked
                    by your Lord for the profligate." We brought out all the be-
                    lievers who were there, but found in it only one house of
                    Muslims. (Surat adh-Dhariyat,31-36)

                    After they had fulfilled their mission to the Prophet
               Abraham (pbuh), the angels visited the Prophet Lot (pbuh) and
               told him that his tribe would be destroyed. A Muslim society,
