Parables In The Qur’an – A Parable Regarding Three Women and Their Husbands
In The Name of Allah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.
Allah says:
ضَرَبَ ٱللَّهُ مَثَلًا لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ ٱمْرَأَتَ نُوحٍ وَٱمْرَأَتَ لُوطٍ كَانَتَا تَحْتَ عَبْدَيْنِ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا صَٰلِحَيْنِ فَخَانَتَاهُمَا فَلَمْ يُغْنِيَا عَنْهُمَا مِنَ ٱللَّهِ شَيْـًٔا وَقِيلَ ٱدْخُلَا ٱلنَّارَ مَعَ ٱلدَّٰخِلِينَ
وَضَرَبَ ٱللَّهُ مَثَلًا لِّلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ ٱمْرَأَتَ فِرْعَوْنَ إِذْ قَالَتْ رَبِّ ٱبْنِ لِى عِندَكَ بَيْتًا فِى ٱلْجَنَّةِ وَنَجِّنِى مِن فِرْعَوْنَ وَعَمَلِهِۦ وَنَجِّنِى مِنَ ٱلْقَوْمِ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ
Allah sets forth an example for those who disbelieve, the wife of Nuh and the wife of Lut. They were under two of our righteous slaves, but they both betrayed their (husbands by rejecting their message) so they [Nuh and Lut] did not avail them from Allah at all, and it was said: “Enter the Fire along with those who enter!” And Allah has set forth an example for those who believe, the wife of Pharaoh when she said: “My Lord! Build for me a home with You in Paradise, and save me from Pharaoh and his deed, and save me from the people who are (polytheists, wrong-doers, and disbelievers in Allah). [at-Tahrim 10-11]
