These narratives typically follow similar patterns: a prophet is sent to a community the community pays no heed to his warnings instead threatens him with punishment God asks the prophet to leave with his followers the community and its people are subsequently destroyed in a punishment. Islamic scholars have stated that these particular prophets represent the early cycle of prophecy as described in the Quran. Many of these passages place the narrative of Lut in a line of successive prophets including Noah, Hud, Salih and Shuayb. Lut is referenced a relatively large number of times in the Quran. Abraham himself is said to have been a descendant of Nuh through his son Shem. Abraham's nephew is said to have been the prophet Lut, who was one of the other people who migrated with Abraham out of their community. Abraham had two children, Isaac and Ismael, who both later became prophets.

Muslims maintain that Abraham's father was Aazar ( Arabic: آزر, romanized: Āzar), which could be derived from the Syriac Athar, who is known in the Hebrew Bible as Terah. While the Quran does not elaborate upon Lut's later life, Islam holds that all prophets were examples of moral and spiritual ' righteousness'. The destruction of the cities is traditionally presented as a warning against homosexuality in Islam as well as other things. Like the Biblical narrative, the Quran states that Lut's messages were ignored by the inhabitants of the cities, and Sodom and Gomorrah were subsequently destroyed. Though Lut was not born among the people he'd been sent to preach to, the people of Sodom are still regarded as his "brethren" in the Quran. He was sent to the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah as a prophet, and was commanded to preach to their inhabitants on monotheism and the sinfulness of homosexuality and their lustful and violent acts. According to Islamic tradition, Lut was born to Haran and spent his younger years in Ur, later migrating to Canaan with his uncle Abraham. Lut ( Arabic: لوط, romanized: Lūṭ), known as Lot in the Old Testament, is a prophet of God in the Quran.
