Tafsir Ibn Kathir
The Angels coming to Lut Allah tells us about when the angels came to Lut in the form of young men with handsome faces. When they entered his home, he said: قَالَ إِنَّكُمْ قَوْمٌ مُّنكَرُونَ - قَالُواْ بَلْ جِئْنَـكَ بِمَا كَانُواْ فِيهِ يَمْتَرُونَ ("Verily, you are people unknown to me." They said: "Nay, we have come to you with that (torment) which they have been doubting.") meaning that they were bringing the punishment and destruction that the people doubted they would ever suffer from. وَآتَيْنَـكَ بِالْحَقِّ (And we have brought you the truth) is like the Ayah, مَا نُنَزِّلُ الْمَلَـئِكَةَ إِلاَّ بِالحَقِّ (We do not send the angels down except with the truth) 15:8 and وِإِنَّا لَصَـدِقُونَ (and certainly, we tell the truth.) They said this in affirmation of the news that they brought him, that he would be saved and his people would be destroyed.
Tafsir Ibn Kathir
Salafi Approvedدو حسین لڑکے یہ فرشتے نوجوان حسین لڑکوں کی شکل میں حضور لوط ؑ کے پاس گئے۔ تو حضرت لوط ؑ نے کہا تم بالکل ناشناس اور انجان لوگ ہو۔ تو فرشتوں نے راز کھول دیا کہ ہم اللہ کا عذاب لے کر آئے ہیں جسے آپ کی قوم نہیں مانتی اور جس کے آنے میں شک شبہ کر رہی تھی۔ ہم حق بات اور قطعی حکم لے کر آئے ہیں اور فرشتے حقانیت کے ساتھ ہی نازل ہوا کرتے ہیں اور ہم ہیں بھی سچے۔ جو خبر آپ کو دے رہے ہیں وہ ہو کر رہے گی کہ آپ نجات پائیں اور آپ کی یہ کافر قوم ہلاک ہوگی۔
