Tafheem ul Quran

Surah 29 Al-'Ankabut, Ayat 29-29

اَـئِنَّكُمۡ لَـتَاۡتُوۡنَ الرِّجَالَ وَتَقۡطَعُوۡنَ السَّبِيۡلَ ۙ وَتَاۡ تُوۡنَ فِىۡ نَادِيۡكُمُ الۡمُنۡكَرَ ​ؕ فَمَا كَانَ جَوَابَ قَوۡمِهٖۤ اِلَّاۤ اَنۡ قَالُوا ائۡتِنَا بِعَذَابِ اللّٰهِ اِنۡ كُنۡتَ مِنَ الصّٰدِقِيۡنَ‏ ﴿29:29﴾

(29:29) What! Do you go to men51 (to satisfy your lust), engage in highway robbery, and commit evil deeds in your gatherings?”52 Then they had no answer to offer other than to say: “Bring Allah's chastisement upon us if you are truthful.”


Notes

51. That is, “You satisfy your sex desire with the males.” As stated in (Surah Al-Aaraf: Ayat 81), “you gratify your lust with men instead of women.”

52. That is, “You do not even hide yourself when you commit this filthy act, but commit it openly in your assemblies, in front of others.” The same has been stated in (Surah An-Naml: Ayat 54), thus: “Do you commit the indecency while you see it?”
