10 Amazing Facts About Prophet Sulaiman and Queen Balqis

Muslimkaffah - Prophet Sulaiman (AS) is referred to as the King of the Universe in the Qur’an, and Queen Balqis is described as his wife. Who were they, and what did they do? We look at their stories in this article...

1) The Tower

The Tower is an eighth-century stone building in modern-day Jordan. It is a place where people of all social classes could meet together to learn more about their faith, as well as enjoy themselves in the process. In addition to carvings depicting stories from the Bible, there are also copies of some of the world's earliest poems: The Hanging Gardens Poems. These poems give a glimpse into everyday life during ancient times and are some of the only known documents written by women that survive today.

2) The Cloak

While the story of when prophet sulaiman met queen balqis for the first time is a well-known tale, some may not know about the cloak of privacy that she donned. The prophet had gifted her a large tent lined with sheets of brocade and walls hung with curtains. The cloak was meant to protect the couple from servants entering their private quarters. It's hard to find information on what this cloak looked like since it was made exclusively for queen balqis.

3) Solomon's Ring

King Solomon possessed a ring with the power to make anyone fall in love with the wearer. One day, he wore the ring while going to visit his new bride, Queen Suliaman. As they talked, Solomon became enamored with her charms. He asked for her hand in marriage and she refused him three times. Each time she said You are my brother, thinking that is was against incest for them to marry since they shared one mother but different fathers.

4) The Throne Room

The story of the prophet Sulaiman (Peace be upon him) and Queen Balqis is a well-known tale in the Muslim world. Few people know the details, however, of what happened after the throne was set in place. The room behind the queen's bedroom became known as the Throne Room. King David used to sit there at night talking with God. The angel would wake him when it was time for prayer.

5) His Kingdom

1. He was a prophet of Allah who led people in prayer, taught them the Qur'an, healed the sick, and defended widows. 2. He married many women so he could see how well they would get along with one another as that is one way to determine if she is a good wife or not. 3.

 He built a big boat for her, but when she got on it, he turned it into a bird that flew away. As she was flying away, it became as large as a mountain. He had to go up to get her back on board because she realized how good he was treating her and couldn't leave him after all he did for her. So I guess what we learn from all of that is just because your husband is rich, don't run off with another man!

6) His Wisdom

Prophet Sulaiman was a wise prophet who was taught by both humans and the jinn. He is one of few prophets to have contact with the spirit world. Furthermore, Prophet Sulaiman is one of the first people to encourage inter-racial marriage (specifically between Arabs and Africans). Queen Balqis is famous for her architecture skills, as she built Babylon’s walls.

7) The Ring of Truth

In addition to the Quran, there are stories from the sayings of prophet Muhammad (s) which tell us about the life of prophet Sulaiman. One story tells how a ring passed from king Sulamun in Jerusalem to each succeeding generation for 900 years before it was given to this last king. The ring was lost when Jerusalem was overrun by enemies.

8) His Seal on the Ark of Covenant

The Seal of Solomon was used by the biblical King Solomon to control the Jinn, who were employed as guardians of various parts of the Temple in Jerusalem. It has a six-pointed star on it that had mystical abilities. The six points represent faith, healing, light, knowledge, virtue and strength. It is said that whoever made contact with this seal would be subject to pain or death unless protected by an amulet inscribed with either the name of God or Allah

9) Sheba's visit

Sheba, queen of Yemen, came to visit Solomon, king of Israel. One day when they had met, she told him that he was the wisest man in the world. In return, Solomon then showed her all the plants and animals he had under his command; he also showered her with gifts.

10) His Pool of Wisdom

The prophet's wife, Queen Balqis is one of the few that has been mentioned in the Qur'an by name. In the case of the prophet's other wives, like Khadijah or Maryam (the mother of Jesus), only the last names have been used.
