What is the rift theory and does it relate to the creation of the Suez Canal and the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah?

I have read in a book that the Suez Canal is the location of Sodom and Gomorrah but I can't find any supporting evidence.

Genesis 19:23 - 29

NKJV - ²³ The sun had risen upon the earth when Lot entered Zoar. ²⁴ Then the LORD rained brimstone and fire on Sodom and Gomorrah, from the LORD out of the heavens.
