Prophet Solomon and the Wisdom of the Queen of Sheba

Prophet Solomon (Sulaiman) was both a prophet and a mighty king; by Allah’s permission, the wind, the jinn, and the birds were placed under his command. Yet he never used these gifts for pride or dominance — only to spread justice and the message of tawhid. One day, while inspecting his armies, he noticed the absence of a small bird: the hoopoe (Hudhud). The news brought by this tiny bird would lead him to a distant kingdom ruled by a wise queen — Bilqis — and open a path of remarkable insight and divine wisdom.
