31 Preface وَلَمّا جاءَت رُسُلُنا إِبراهيمَ بِالبُشرىٰ قالوا إِنّا مُهلِكو أَهلِ هٰذِهِ القَريَةِ ۖ إِنَّ أَهلَها كانوا ظالِمينَAli Quli QaraiAnd when Our messengers1 came to Abraham with the good news, they said, ‘We are indeed going to destroy the people of this town. Its people are indeed wrongdoers.’ That is, the angels sent to give the good news of Isaac’s birth to Abraham and to destroy the people of Sodom.
