﴿ وَلَمَّا جَآءَتْ رُسُلُنَا لُوطًۭا سِىٓءَ بِهِمْ وَضَاقَ بِهِمْ ذَرْعًۭا وَقَالَ هَٰذَا يَوْمٌ عَصِيبٌۭ ﴾

“AND WHEN Our messengers came unto Lot, he was sorely grieved on their account, seeing that it was beyond his power to shield them; and he exclaimed: "This is a woeful day!"”

And when Our messengers came to Lot he was distressed he was grieved on their account and felt constrained in his power to protect them because they had handsome faces and were dressed as visiting guests and so he feared for them from his people and he said ‘This is a distressful a very difficult day’.
