Translation

And his people came hastening to him, and before [this] they had been doing evil deeds.1 He said, "O my people, these are my daughters;2 they are purer for you. So fear Allāh and do not disgrace me concerning my guests. Is there not among you a man of reason?"
Footnotes
1 Referring to their practice of sodomy and homosexual rape of males.
2 i.e., the women of his community who were available for marriage.

Tafsir

And his people, when they became aware of them, came to him, running, hastening, towards him and previously, before they came, they had been committing abominations, namely, penetrative sexual intercourse with men. He, Lot, said, 'O my people! Here are my daughters, marry with them; they are purer for you. So fear God, and do not degrade me, [do not] disgrace me, before my guests. Is there not among you any upright man?', to enjoin decency and forbid indecency?
