✧ Lut was the Prophet of Allah and the son of the brother of Ibrahim. He was a fair-skinned man with a handsome face, a fine nose, small ears, long fingers, and excellent front teeth. He had the most beautiful smile when he laughed, and he was the most beautiful, most dignified, most judicious, and least harmful to his people. This was when he heard about his people what he heard about the great harm that they intended for him, where he says: {If only I had against you some power or could take refuge in a strong support} [Hud 11:80].
