5. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Khalid from Muhammad ibn Sa‘id who has said, that informed me Zakariya ibn Muhammad from his father from ‘Amr who has said the following: “Abu Ja‘far, ‘Alayhi al-Salam, has said, ‘People of Lot were of the excellent people Allah had created. Iblis persuaded them very intensely. Due to their excellent manners, they would go to work together in groups and leave women behind at home. Iblis (Satan) would come to them every day and in their absence Iblis (Satan) would destroy their work accomplished in a day. One of them suggested keeping watch and seeing who destroys their work accomplished. They remained on their guard and found him out to be a very good looking boy. They said, ‘So it is you who destroys our work every time.’ They decided to kill him. They left him with a man for the night. During the night he cried and the man asked, ’What is the matter?’ He replied, ‘My father would allow me to sleep on his belly.’ The man said, ‘Fine, come and sleep on my belly.’ He (the boy) began to mb the man until he taught him how to engage in anal sexual intercourse with him. The first to teach the indecent act was Iblis (Satan) and the second was this man. He then ran away and in the morning the man told everyone about what he had experienced with the boy and they liked it. They did not know it (the indecent act) before. They learned it and man began to practice the indecent act with another man. Thereafter, they even ambushed by-passers and engaged with them in the indecent act until their city failed the people. They neglected their women and turned to young boys. When he, Iblis (Satan), found out that his plan has worked and it has become strong among men he then turned to women in the form of a woman and said, ‘Your men engage in sexual intercourse with each other.’ They replied, ‘Yes, we know it.’ Lot all the time preached to them against it and Iblis (Satan) deceived them until women totally turned to women and men turned to men for sexual satisfaction. When Allah’s point was established against them He sent Jibril, Michael and Israfil (three angels) in the form of young boys wearing gowns. They passed by Lot who was tilling the land. He asked, ‘Where do you want to go? I have never seen any boys more beautiful than you.’ They replied, ‘Our master has sent us to the chief of this city.’ He then asked, ‘Is your master not informed that the people of this city commit indecent acts? O my sons, they by Allah take men and engage in anal sexual intercourse with them until they make them bleed.’ They said, ‘Our master has commanded us to pass through their middle.’ He then said, ‘I have one wish before you.’ They asked, ‘What is your wish?’ He replied, ‘You wait here until it is dark.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘They waited.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘He sent his daughter to bring them bread, water in a water-sack, and a gown for cover against cold. When his daughter went rain came in the valley and Lot said that now flood washes away the children thus, (you must) get up so we can move away to seek shelter of the wall. So Jibril, Michael and Israfil began to walk in the middle of the road. He said, ‘Children, walk here.’ They replied, ‘Our master has commanded us to walk in their middle.’ Lot was trying to benefit from the darkness. Iblis (Satan) took a child from the arms of a woman and threw him in a well and all people of the city came at the door of Lot for help. When they saw the young boys in his home they said, ‘O Lot, this proves that you also do what we do’ He said, ‘They are my guests so you must not disgrace me about my guests.’ They said, ‘There are three of them. Take one and give two of them to us.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘He took them inside a room and said, ‘I wish I had a family to defend me against you.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘The crowd began to press at the door, broke through the door of Lot and flattened Lot on the ground. Jibril said, ‘We are the messengers of your Lord and they cannot reach you.’ He took a handful of soil from Batha’ and threw it against their faces and said, ‘Ugly faces.’ All people of the city became blind.’ Lot said, ‘O messengers of my Lord, what has my Lord commanded you to do about them?’ They replied, ‘He has commanded us to seize them in the morning.’ He said, ‘I have one wish before you.’ They asked, ‘What is your wish?’ He replied, ‘I request you to seize them now because I am afraid bada’ (change of plan) may take place with my Lord.’ They said, ‘O Lot, the appointed time for them is the morning, is not the morning very near, for one who wants to seize them? Take your daughters and move away but depart your wife.’” “Abu Ja‘far, ‘Alayhi al-Salam, has said, ‘May Allah grant mercy to Lot! If he knew who were with him in the room he would become certain of his victory when he said, ‘I wish I had power against you or a strong support’, what kind of support is stronger than Jibril who was in the room with him? Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, said, to Muhammad, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, “ . . . from the unjust it is not far away,” from the unjust ones in your followers if they do what people of Lot did.’ He (the Imam) said that the Messenger of Allah has said, ‘One who insists in engaging for anal sexual intercourse with men will not die before calling men to engage in anal sexual intercourse with him.”’
IsnādUn certain nombre de nos compagnons ont rapporté de Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Khalid, de Muhammad ibn Sa'id, qui a dit : "Zakariya ibn Muhammad m'a informé, de la part de son père, d'après 'Amr, de la part d'Abu Ja'far (que la paix soit sur lui), qui a dit :"
"Les gens de Lot étaient parmi les meilleurs peuples qu'Allah a créés. Iblis les enviait fortement. Ils avaient pour habitude, lorsqu'ils sortaient pour travailler, de sortir tous ensemble, laissant les femmes derrière eux. Iblis les observait alors et, à leur retour, il saccageait ce qu'ils avaient fait. Certains d'entre eux se dirent : 'Allons surveiller celui qui détruit nos biens.' Ils le surveillèrent et découvrirent qu'il était un jeune garçon, le plus beau des jeunes garçons. Ils lui dirent : 'C'est toi qui détruis nos biens à maintes reprises ?' Ils décidèrent alors de le tuer. Ils le gardèrent chez un homme. Pendant la nuit, il cria. L'homme lui demanda ce qui n'allait pas. Le garçon expliqua que son père le mettait toujours sur son ventre pour dormir. L'homme lui dit de venir dormir sur son ventre à lui. Il continua à le guider jusqu'à ce qu'il apprenne à se faire du mal. La première fois, c'est Iblis qui lui avait appris, la deuxième fois, c'était lui-même. Puis il s'échappa d'eux. Le matin venu, l'homme raconta ce qu'il avait fait avec le garçon, ce qui les étonna, car ils ne le connaissaient pas. Ils mirent alors leurs mains sur lui jusqu'à ce que les hommes se contentent des hommes et les femmes des femmes. Ils surveillaient les routes et agissaient ainsi jusqu'à ce que leur ville soit renversée. Ils abandonnèrent alors leurs femmes et se tournèrent vers les jeunes garçons. Lorsqu'il vit que son autorité sur les hommes était établie, il se tourna vers les femmes, se transformant en femme lui-même. Il leur dit : 'Vos hommes commettent des actes que nous avons vus. Lot les réprimande et les met en garde, mais Iblis les incite. Les femmes finirent par se satisfaire des femmes. Lorsqu'ils eurent atteint le comble de la perversion, Allah envoya Gabriel, Michel et Raphaël (que la paix soit sur eux) sous forme de beaux jeunes hommes. Ils passèrent près de Lot alors qu'il labourait. Lot les trouva plus beaux que tout ce qu'il avait vu auparavant. Il leur demanda : 'Où allez-vous ? Je n'ai jamais vu de plus beaux jeunes hommes que vous.' Ils répondirent : 'Nous avons été envoyés par notre Seigneur pour punir les habitants de cette ville.' Lot demanda : 'Votre Seigneur n'a-t-il pas informé votre maître de ce que font les habitants de cette ville ? Par Allah, ils commettent des actes immoraux.' Ils répondirent : 'Notre maître nous a ordonné de les punir par la magie.' Lot dit : 'Permettez-moi de vous offrir quelque chose.' Ils demandèrent ce que c'était. Il dit : 'Attendez ici jusqu'à ce que la nuit tombe.' Ils s'assirent. Il envoya sa fille leur apporter du pain, de l'eau dans une cruche et un manteau pour se couvrir du froid. Lorsque sa fille partit, la pluie et le torrent arrivèrent. Lot dit : 'L'heure emporte les garçons du torrent. Levons-nous et partons.' Lot marchait le long du mur, tandis que Gabriel, Michel et Raphaël marchaient au milieu du chemin. Lot leur dit : 'Venez par ici.' Ils répondirent : 'Notre maître nous a ordonné de passer au milieu.' Lot cherchait à les protéger de la vue des autres. Iblis passa alors près d'une femme qui avait un enfant en bas âge et le
