That's not "quite clear" at all. In fact it's total BS.
I missed seeing that in the rant, which also claims that the Koran was silent on the matter. This just looks weird. Viking Kitties???

You have to read the Koran in context. Notice particularly the corrupt addition to the Bible narrative in 68-70 that completely changes the story, reinforced with a more recent islamic example in 80-81:
[15.61] So when the messengers came to Lut’s followers,
[15.62] He said: Surely you are an unknown people.
[15.63] They said: Nay, we have come to you with that about which they disputed.
[15.64] And we have come to you with the truth, and we are most surely truthful.
[15.65] Therefore go forth with your followers in a part of the night and yourself follow their rear, and let not any one of you turn round, and go forth whither you are commanded.
[15.66] And We revealed to him this decree, that the roots of these shall be cut off in the morning.
[15.67] And the people of the town came rejoicing.
[15.68] He said: Surely these are my guests, therefore do not disgrace me,
[15.69] And guard against (the punishment of) Allah and do not put me to shame.
[15.70] They said: Have we not forbidden you from (other) people?
[15.71] He said: These are my daughters, if you will do (aught).
[15.72] By your life! they were blindly wandering on in their intoxication.
[15.73] So the rumbling overtook them (while) entering upon the time of sunrise;
[15.74] Thus did We turn it upside down, and rained down upon them stones of what had been decreed.
[15.75] Surely in this are signs for those who examine.
[15.76] And surely it is on a road that still abides.
[15.77] Most surely there is a sign in this for the believers.
[15.78] And the dwellers of the thicket also were most surely unjust.
[15.79] So We inflicted retribution on them, and they are both, indeed, on an open road (still) pursued.
[15.80] And the dwellers of the Rock certainly rejected the messengers;
[15.81] And We gave them Our communications, but they turned aside from them;
[15.82] And they hewed houses in the mountains in security.
[15.83] So the rumbling overtook them in the morning;
[15.84] And what they earned did not avail them.
