The cave  of Hazrat Loot


The cave  of Hazrat Loot (Lot) (Peace be upon  him) is located just above the eastern edge of the Dead   Sea. Some traditions refer to this cave as the burial place of  Hazrat Loot (Lot).



  The prophet Lot (Lut) is mentioned by name 27 times in the Quran in several long  passages that relate how he was sent to the people of Sodom. The cities destroyed by God include Sodom, Zeboiyim [Sab'ah], Zoar [Sa'rah], Gomorrah [Amarah], and  Admah [Duma]. Q 51:33-34 mentions stones of clay marked by God which were  caused to rain down upon the people of Lot (Peace be upon him) as punishment  for their sins.
