وَلُوطًا ءَاتَيْنَـٰهُ حُكْمًا وَعِلْمًا وَنَجَّيْنَـٰهُ مِنَ ٱلْقَرْيَةِ ٱلَّتِى كَانَت تَّعْمَلُ ٱلْخَبَـٰٓئِثَ ۗ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَوْمَ سَوْءٍ فَـٰسِقِينَ ﴿74﴾

Translation by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Dr. Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali

And (remember) Lût (Lot), We gave him Hukm (right judgement of the affairs and Prophethood) and (religious) knowledge, and We saved him from the town (folk) who practised Al-Khabâ’ith (evil, wicked and filthy deeds). Verily, they were a people given to evil, and were Fâsiqûn (rebellious, disobedient to Allâh).

(Ayah 75,74) {وَ لُوْطًا اٰتَيْنٰهُ حُكْمًا وَّ عِلْمًا …:} The mention of Lut (Lot) عليه السلام separately indicates that he was sent to a different region and people than the previous three prophets. The story of Lut عليه السلام has already appeared in Surah Al-A'raf (80), Hud (81), and Al-Hijr (61). The mention of the wicked deeds of his town is also found in previous surahs as well as in Surah Al-Ankabut (28 to 35) and Surah Al-Qamar (33 to 37), etc. The name of this town is famously Sodom.
