re: #197 Dr Lizardo
I asked my Sheikh in Berlin about that, as there are some minor differences in the story of Sodom and Gomorrah between the Bible and the Qur’an. The outline is the same. His explanation is that their crime was cruelty to strangers and the helpless…..rape was merely a symptom of their wanton cruelty towards others. He also noted that it is implied that they were bandits, waylaying travelers and robbing them.
In any event, not nice folks.
That is fairly accurate. In any case, their sexual habits are not mentioned, it is just inferred because the townspeople wanted to rape the angels, not Lot’s daughters.
