Solomon in IslamSulaimān ibn Dāwūd (Arabic: سُلَيْمَان بْن دَاوُوْد, Solomon son of David) was, according to the Quran, a malik (مَلِك, king) and Nabī (Prophet) of the Israelites. Islamic tradition generally holds that he was the third king of Jewish people, and a wise ruler for the nation.Islam views Solomon as one of the prophets of God, who was bestowed with many God-given gifts, including the ability to speak to animals and jinn. Supported by a miraculous ring given by God, he enslaved the devils (shayatin) and demons (div).Muslims further maintain that he remained faithful to the one and only God throughout his life; and reigned justly over the whole of the Israelites; was blessed with a level of kingship which was given to none after him and before him; and fulfilled all of his commandments, being promised nearness to God in Paradise at the end of his life. Arab historians regarded Solomon as one of the greatest rulers around the world.Quran and interpretationJudgment on the fieldIn the earliest narrative involving Solomon, the Quran (21:78) briefly alludes to a story that Solomon was in the company of his father, when two men came to ask David to judge between them regarding a ḥarth (حَرْث, field). Later Muslim commentators expanded on the allusion, including Al-Tabari, Baidawi, and Ibn Kathir. They said that the first of the two men said that he owned a vineyard of which he took great care the whole year through. But one day, when he was absent, the other mans sheep had strayed into the vineyard and devoured the grapes. He asked to be compensated for this damage. 62  Upon hearing the mans complaint, Solomon suggested that the owner of the sheep take the other mans vineyard to repair and cultivate until the vines returned to their former state, whereupon he should return it to its owner. At the same time, the owner of the vineyard would care for the sheep and benefit from their wool and milk until his land was returned to him, at which point he would return the sheep to their owner. This response shows Solomons level of judgment, which, the Quran says, would characterize Solomon throughout his life. Ḥikmah (Wisdom), according to Muslim tradition, would always be associated with Solomon, who would later even be referred to as Sulaimān al-Ḥakīm (سُلَيْمَان ٱلْحَكِيْم, "Solomon the Wise"). This story is adapted in the Kebra Nagast, but as a dispute adjudicated by a son of Solomons.Solomon and the demonsThe Queen of ShebaThe Quran narrates that the wind was made subservient to Solomon, and he could control it at his own will, and that the jinn also came under Solomons control. The jinn helped strengthen Solomons reign. The devils (shayatin), and demons were forced building for him monuments. God also caused a miraculous ʿayn (عَيْن, fount or spring) of molten qiṭr (قِطْر, brass or copper) to flow for Solomon, to be used by the demons in their construction.When David died, Solomon inherited his position as the prophetic king of the Israelites. Solomon once permitted a woman to build a statue of her father. Later, she began to worship the statue and Solomon was rebuked for tolerating idolatry in his kingdom. As a punishment, God enabled one of the enslaved demons to steal Solomons ring and take over his kingdom (Surah 38:34). He later repents his sin and gains control over the demons again, focusing on building the temple again. He prayed to God to grant him a kingdom which would be unlike any after him. God accepted Solomons prayer and gave him what he pleased. Hazrat Suleman Story in Urdu Free Download or read online Hazrat Suleman Aleh Salam Waqia. Among the sons of David (peace be upon him) was his real successor, Sulayman (peace be upon him), in whose name Allah Almighty combined both prophethood and kingship and gave him the land which no one before him or after him got.
