ذَكَرْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) الْمَنْكُوحَ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ فَقَالَ لَيْسَ يُبْلِي اللَّهُ بِهَذَا الْبَلَاءِ أَحَداً وَ لَهُ فِيهِ حَاجَةٌ إِنَّ فِي أَدْبَارِهِمْ أَرْحَاماً مَنْكُوسَةً وَ حَيَاءُ أَدْبَارِهِمْ كَحَيَاءِ الْمَرْأَةِ قَدْ شَرِكَ فِيهِمُ ابْنٌ لِإِبْلِيسَ يُقَالُ لَهُ زَوَالٌ فَمَنْ شَرِكَ فِيهِ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ كَانَ مَنْكُوحاً وَ مَنْ شَرِكَ فِيهِ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ كَانَتْ مِنَ الْمَوَارِدِ وَ الْعَامِلُ عَلَى هَذَا مِنَ الرِّجَالِ إِذَا بَلَغَ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً لَمْ يَتْرُكْهُ وَ هُمْ بَقِيَّةُ سَدُومَ أَمَا إِنِّي لَسْتُ أَعْنِي بِهِمْ بَقِيَّتَهُمْ أَنَّهُ وَلَدُهُمْ وَ لَكِنَّهُمْ مِنْ طِينَتِهِمْ قَالَ قُلْتُ سَدُومُ الَّتِي قُلِبَتْ قَالَ هِيَ أَرْبَعُ مَدَائِنَ سَدُومُ وَ صَرِيمُ وَ لَدْمَاءُ وَ عُمَيْرَاءُ قَالَ فَأَتَاهُنَّ جَبْرَئِيلُ ( عليه السلام ) وَ هُنَّ مَقْلُوعَاتٌ إِلَى تُخُومِ الْأَرْضِ السَّابِعَةِ فَوَضَعَ جَنَاحَهُ تَحْتَ السُّفْلَى مِنْهُنَّ وَ رَفَعَهُنَّ جَمِيعاً حَتَّى سَمِعَ أَهْلُ سَمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا نُبَاحَ كِلَابِهِمْ ثُمَّ قَلَبَهَا .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ali Bin Ma’bad, from Abdullah Al Dihqan, from Dorost Bin Abu Mansour, from Atiyya, a brother of Abu Al Uram who said, ‘I mentioned to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, the one who is copulated with from the men’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Allah<sup>azwj</sup> will not let anyone be afflicted with this affliction and there is a need for him. In their behinds there are inverted wombs, and the shame of their behinds is like the shame of the woman, a son of Iblees<sup>la</sup> called Zawalu having participated among them. So the one among whom he has participated in from the men, would be passive gay, and the one among whom he participates from the women, are the ones to whom the men act upon this. When they reach (the age of) forty and do not leave, they are the remnants of Sadoum. But, I<sup>asws</sup> do not mean with them being their remnants that they are their children, but they are from their essence’. He (the narrator) said, ‘I said, ‘Sadoum which was turned upside down?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘These were four cities – Sadoum, and Sareym, and Ladma’a, and Umeyra’a. So Jibraeel<sup>as</sup> came to them and they were cut out up to the seventh firmament. So he<sup>as</sup> placed his<sup>as</sup> wing under the lowest of them and raised them altogether until the inhabitants of the sky of the world heard the barking of their dogs, then he<sup>as</sup> turned them upside down’.
