The Holy Quran 26:173 — Surah Ash-Shu'ara

Arabic text

وَأَمْطَرْنَا عَلَيْهِم مَّطَرًا ۖ فَسَآءَ مَطَرُ ٱلْمُنذَرِينَ

Translation

We sent a torrential shower (of stones) upon them. Evil indeed was the rain of those who were forewarned. (whereas they were warned about Allaah's punishment, they refused to mend their ways and were finally destroyed.)

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

The punishment of the people of Lut: that is, their towns were overturned and a rain of stones was showered from the sky. So they were left lying in heaps. Their story too has already passed in detail in Al-A'raf and elsewhere.
