The ruling on attributing the act of sodomy to Lut (peace be upon him)

Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: Why is this ugly act, which is the act of sodomy, attributed to the noble Prophet Lut (peace be upon him)?

Answer:
Yes. He says it is called by the name of Lut (peace be upon him) and attributed to him. He says: They know that it was mentioned in the Qur'an as a heinous act and the commission of , and the term "liwat" was not used, nor is there an authentic hadith using this term. Did you say this or not? What is attributed to Lut (peace be upon him) is that among the common people, "Lut" is his name; that is his proper name. As for the heinous act, it is not called "liwat," and its perpetrator is called a "lawati." It seems "Luti" is not said; rather, "lawati" is said, derived from "liwat" and attributed to the act of liwat. As for Lut (peace be upon him), that is his proper name, so he is called Lut. Yes.
