Quran 26:160. The people of Lot disbelieved the messengers.
161. When their brother Lot said to them, “Do you not fear?
162. I am to you a faithful messenger.
163. So fear God, and obey me.
164. I ask of you no payment for it. My payment is only from the Lord of the Worlds.
165. Do you approach the males of the world?
166. And forsake the wives your Lord created for you? Indeed, you are intrusive people.”
167. They said, “Unless you refrain, O Lot, you will be expelled.”
168. He said, “I certainly deplore your conduct.”
169. “My Lord, save me and my family from what they do.”
170. So We saved him and his family, altogether.
171. Except for an old woman among those who tarried.
172. Then We destroyed the others.
173. And We rained down on them a rain. Dreadful is the rain of those forewarned.
174. Surely in this is a sign, but most of them are not believers.
175. Your Lord is the Almighty, the Merciful.
So let's look at the commentary.
The old woman referred to here was Lot’s wife.
Stones were rained on them as the result of a volcanic eruption.
I really didn't want to go through the agony of stating this.... but I googled it... and apparently it is so. The story of Lot... is the story of the homosexuals in the town of Sodom. Bummer... I wanted it to be about lust.... simply lust.
I didn't want a Brokeback Mountain story to be true. But alas... it's in the Bible and it's in the Quran.... so it's true.
The men in Sodom were more attracted to men than women..... and they were taken out by a volcanic eruption.... fire falling from the sky.
Lot and his family escaped.... with the exception of Lot's wife.... who was too slow.
