سورة العنكبوت

Ali ibn Ibrahim (may Allah have mercy on him): فَآمَنَ لَهُ لُوطٌ [So Lut believed in Him] — meaning he believed in Ibrahim (peace be upon him). Regarding: وَ قالَ إِنِّی مُهاجِرٌ إِلی رَبِّی [and he said: Indeed I am migrating to my Lord], he said: "What is meant by muhajir (the one who migrates) is one who migrates away from evils and sins and returns to Allah."

Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him): Ibrahim ibn Abi Ziyad al-Karkhi said: I heard Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him) narrate the hadith of the migration of Ibrahim (peace be upon him), and at the end of it he said: And Ibrahim (peace be upon him) continued his migration until he reached the north of Sham, and left Lut (peace be upon him) in his stead in the south of Sham.

Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him): The prophets and messengers are of four categories: a prophet who is prophet only for himself and does not go beyond that (and Allah, through some means, makes his personal duties known to him); a prophet who sees in dreams and hears the voice of the unseen caller but does not see him while awake, and is not sent to anyone, and he himself has an imam and leader — just as Ibrahim was an imam over Lut (peace be upon him)...

Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him): The mother of Ibrahim (peace be upon him), named Sarah, and the mother of Lut (peace be upon him), named Waraqah, were two sisters, and both were the daughters of Lahij. Lahij was a prophet who gave warning but did not hold the rank of messengership.

Imam Baqir (peace be upon him): فَآمَنَ لَهُ لُوطٌ [And Lut believed in him]; and he migrated to Sham along with Sarah and Lut (peace be upon him).
