A group of Angels visited Ibrahim as guests and gave him glad tidings of a son "endowed with wisdom"; they told him that they had been sent by God to the "guilty people" of Sodom, to destroy them with "a shower of stones of clay (brimstone)" and deliver Lot and those who believed in him.
İbrahim, Lut’un onlarla beraber yaşadığını hatırlatarak orada yaşayan inananların kurtulması konusundaki dileğini meleklere bildirir.
