A prophet who received revelation, knowledge and the language of birds, Solomon (Sulayman) had the wind, jinn and devils made subject to his command. The verses follow the episodes of the ant, the hoopoe and the Queen of Sheba, who finally submits to Allah. A large share also deals with trial (fitna), including the trial Solomon himself underwent.
Verses gathered from a topical index of the Quran, in Mushaf order; every verse is quoted in full.
And when We decreed for him [i.e., Solomon] death, nothing indicated to them [i.e., the jinn] his death except a creature of the earth eating his staff. But when he fell, it became clear to the jinn that if they had known the unseen, they would not have remained in humiliating punishment.
