Sulaiman ya gaji annabci da mulkin Dawud. Wannan ba gadon dukiya ba ne, domin annabawa ba sa barin dukiya ga magada. Ana bayar da ita ga matalauta da mabukata, ba ga dangi ba. Annabi Muhammad ﷺ ya ce: "Dukiyar annabawa ba a gadonta, abin da muka bari sadaka ne." (Sahihul Bukhari).

Solomon inherited David's prophethood and dominion. This was not a material inheritance, as prophets do not bequeath their property. It is given away to the poor and needy, not to their relatives. Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said: "The prophets' property will not be inherited, and whatever we leave is to be used for charity." (Sahih Al-Bukhari).

Lalle mun ba Dawud da Sulaiman ilimi, sai suka ce: "Duk godiya da yabo na Allah ne, wanda Ya fifita mu a kan da yawa daga cikin bayinSa masu imani!" Sulaiman ya gāji (ilimin) Dawud. Ya ce: "Ya ku mutane! An koyar da mu harshen tsuntsaye, kuma an ba mu dukan abubuwa. Wannan, lalle, falala ce bayyananniya (daga wurin Allah)." Aka tattara wa Sulaiman rundunoninsa na aljanu da mutane da tsuntsaye, kuma dukansu an jera su cikin tsari na yaƙi (suna tafiya gaba). (Ch 27:15-17 Alƙur'ani)

"And indeed We gave knowledge to David and Solomon, and they both said: "All the praises and thanks be to Allah, Who has preferred us above many of His believing slaves!" And Solomon inherited (the knowledge of) David. He said: "O mankind! We have been taught the language of birds, and on us have been bestowed all things. This, verily, is an evident grace (from Allah)." And there were gathered before Solomon his hosts of jinns and men, and birds, and they were all set in battle order (marching forwards). (Ch 27:15-17 Quran).

Bayan rasuwar mahaifinsa, Sulaiman ya zama sarki. Ya roki Allah mulki irin wanda babu wani bayansa da zai samu, sai Allah ya amsa roƙonsa. Baya ga hikima, Allah ya ba Sulaiman baiwa da dama.

Haka kuma Allah ya fifita shi da wata ma'adinin tagulla, wadda a zamanin nan karfe ne mai wuyar samu.

After his father's death, Solomon became king. He begged Allah for a kingdom such as none after him would have, and Allah granted his wish. Besides wisdom, Allah had blessed Solomon with many abilities. He could command the winds and understand and talk to birds and animals. Allah directed him to teach both men and jinns to mine the earth and extract its minerals to make tools and weapons. He also favored him with a mine of copper, which was a rare metal in those days.

A zamaninsa dawakai ne suke zama babbar hanyar sufuri ta yau da kullum. Suna da matukar muhimmanci wajen kare kai, wajen ɗaukar sojoji, da jigilar kayan abinci da makamai na yaki.

During his time horses were the common mode of transportation. They were very essential for defense, to carry soldiers and cart provisions and weapons of war. The animals were well cared for and well trained. One day Solomon was reviewing a parade of his stable. The fitness, beauty and posture of the horses fascinated him so much that he kept on stroking and admiring them. The sun was nearly setting, and the time for the middle prayer was passing by. When he realized this, he exclaimed: "I surely love the finer things of life than the service of my Lord! Return them to me."

Allah Mai Iko Duka ya saukar da cewa:

Almighty Allah revealed:

Kuma Mun ba Dawud Sulaiman. Ya kasance bawa mai kyau! Lalle shi mai komawa ne ga Allah akai-akai da tuba! A lokacin da aka nuna masa dawakai masu kyau, masu horo, na zuriya mafi daraja, da yamma (don jihadi a hanyar Allah). Sai ya ce: "Kaico!

Sai ya fara shafa ƙafafunsu da wuyansu (har ƙarshen nunin).

"And to David We gave Solomon. How excellent a slave! Verily, he was ever oft returning in repentance (to Us)! When there were displayed before him, in the afternoon, well-trained horses of the highest breed (for jihad in Allah's cause). And he said: "Alas! I did love the good (these horses) instead of remembering my Lord (in my 'Asr prayer)" till the time was over, and the sun had hidden in the veil of the night. Then he said: "Bring them (horses) back to me." Then he began to pass his hand over their legs and their necks (till the end of the display).

Lalle mun jarraba Sulaiman, kuma Muka ajiye a kan kujerarsa wani jiki (wani shaidan, saboda haka ya rasa mulkinsa na wani lokaci), amma ya komo (zuwa ga kujerarsa da mulkinsa da Alherin Allah, kuma ya komo) zuwa ga Allah cikin biyayya da tuba.

And indeed We did try Solomon and We placed on his throne Jasadan (a devil, so he lost his kingdom for a while) but he did return (to his throne and kingdom by the Grace of Allah and he did return) to Allah with obedience and in repentance. He said: "My Lord! Forgive me, and bestow upon me a kingdom such as shall not belong to any other after me. Verily, You are the Bestower." So, We subjected to him the wind, it blew gently to his order whithersoever he willed, and also the devils from the jinns including every kind of builder and diver, and also other bound in fetters. (Saying of Allah to Solomon): "This is Our gift, so spend you or withhold, no account will be asked." And verily, he enjoyed a near access to Us, and a good final return Paradise.

(Surat Saad, Ayoyi 30-40)

(Ch38:30-40 Quran).

Wata rana Sulaiman ya tara rundunarsa, wadda take da runduna-runduna daban-daban na mutane, aljannu, tsuntsaye da dabbobi. Ya tafi da su zuwa ƙasar Askalon.

One day Solomon gathered his army, which had different battalions of men, jinns, birds, and animals. He marched them to the country of Askalon.

Yayin da suke wucewa ta wani kwari, wata tsuntsu... no, a sake: wata tururuwa ta ga rundunar da take zuwa, sai ta yi kira don gargadin sauran tururuwa: "Ku gudu zuwa gidajenku! In ba haka ba, ba tare da sani ba, Sulaiman da rundunarsa na iya murkushe ku!" Sulaiman, da ya ji kiran tururuwar, sai ya yi murmushi. Ya yi farin ciki da cewa tururuwar ta san shi annabi ne wanda ba zai cutar da halittar Allah da gangan ba. Ya gode wa Allah da ya ceci rayukan tururuwar.

While they were passing through a valley, an ant saw the approaching army and cried out to warn the other ants: "Run to your homes! Otherwise, unaware, Solomon and his army might crush you!" Solomon, hearing the cry of the ant, smiled. He was glad that the ant knew him to be a prophet who would not intentionally harm Allah's creation. He thanked Allah for saving the ants' lives.

Allah Maɗaukakin Sarki ya ce: "Aka tattara wa Sulaiman rundunoninsa na aljannu da mutane da tsuntsaye, aka jera su cikin tsari. Har lokacin da suka isa kwarin tururuwa, sai wata tururuwa ta ce: 'Ya ku tururuwa! Ku shiga gidajenku, kada Sulaiman da rundunoninsa su murkushe ku, alhali kuwa ba su sani ba.' Sai ya yi murmushi, yana mamakin maganarta, ya ce: 'Ya Ubangijina! Ka ba ni ikon yin godiya ga ni'imarka wadda ka yi mini da iyayena, kuma in yi aiki nagari wanda zai faranta maka, ka shigar da ni cikin rahamarka tare da bayinka nagargaru.'" (Surah An-Naml, 27:17-19).

Allah the Almighty narrated: And there were gathered before Solomon his hosts of jinns and men, and birds, and they all were set in battle order (marching forwards). Till, when they came to a valley of the ants, one of the ants said: "O ants! Enter your dwellings, lest Solomon and his hosts crush you, while they perceive not." So he (Solomon) smiled, amused at her speech and said: "My Lord! Inspire and bestow upon me the power and ability that I maybe grateful for Your Favors which You have bestowed on me and on my parents, and that I may do righteous good deeds that will please You, and admit me by Your Mercy among Your righteous slaves." (Ch 27:17-19 Quran).

A Ƙudus, a kan wani babban dutse, Sulaiman ya gina wani kyakkyawan haikali don jawo mutane su bauta wa Allah. A yau ana kiran wannan gini da "Dome of the Rock" (Kubbar Dutse). Daga nan, wata babbar tawaga ta mabiya ta haɗu da Sulaiman a tafiyar aikin hajji zuwa Masallacin Harami da ke Makka. Bayan sun kammala aikin hajji, sun yi tafiya zuwa Yaman, sun isa birnin San'a. Sulaiman ya burgu da hanyarsu ta wayo ta jagorantar ruwa zuwa dukan garuruwansu. Ya yi marmarin gina irin wannan tsarin ruwa a ƙasarsa, amma bai da isassun maɓuɓɓugan ruwa.

In Jerusalem, on a huge rock, Solomon built a beautiful temple to draw the people to worship Allah. Today this building is known as "The Dome of the Rock." From there, a large band of followers joined Solomon on pilgrimage to the Holy Mosque in Mecca. After they had completed their hajj, they traveled to Yemen and arrived in the city of San'a. Solomon was impressed by their clever method of channeling water all over their cities. He was keen to build similar water systems in his own country but did not have enough springs.

Ya fita don neman tsuntsun hudhud, wanda yake iya gano ruwa a karkashin kasa. Ya aika da sakonni ko'ina zuwa ga hudhud domin ya kira shi, amma ba a same shi ba ko'ina. Cikin fushi, ya bayyana cewa sai dai idan tsuntsun yana da kyakkyawan dalili na rashinsa, zai hukunta shi sosai.

He set out to find the hoopoe bird, which could detect water under the ground. He sent signals all over the hoopoe to call on him, but it was nowhere to be found. In anger, he declared that unless the bird had a good reason for its absence, he would punish it severely.

Daga karshe hudhud ya zo wurin Sulaiman ya bayyana dalilin jinkirinsa. "Na gano wani abu da ba ka sani ba. Na zo daga Sheba (Sab'a) da labari mai muhimmanci." Sulaiman ya yi mamaki, fushinsa kuma ya lafa. Tsuntsun ya ci gaba da cewa: "Sab'a tana karkashin mulkin wata sarauniya mai suna Bilkis (Bilqis), wadda take da yalwar komai, har da wani kujera mai daraja."

The hoopoe eventually came to Solomon and explained the reason for its delay. "I have discovered something of which you are not aware. I have come from Sheba (Sab'a) with important news." Solomon became curious, and his anger subsided. The bird continued: "Sab'a is ruled by a queen named Bilkis (Bilqis), who has plenty of everything, including a splendid throne.

Amma duk da wannan dukiya, Shaidan ya shiga zuciyarta da zuciyar mutanenta. Ya mallaki tunaninsu gaba ɗaya. Na yi mamaki matuka da na ji cewa suna bautar rana maimakon Allah Madaukaki." Domin tabbatar da labarin hudhud, Sulaiman ya aika wa sarauniya wasiƙa tare da tsuntsun. Ya umarci tsuntsun ya ɓoye kansa ya kuma lura da komai.

But in spite of all this wealth, Satan has entered her heart and the hearts of her people. She rules their minds completely. I was shocked to learn that they worship the sun instead of Allah the Almighty." To check the hoopoe's information, Solomon sent a letter to the queen with the bird. He instructed the bird to remain hidden and to watch everything.

Hudhud ya jefa wasiƙar a gaban sarauniya, sannan ya tashi ya tafi ɓoye. Ta buɗe ta karanta ta cikin farin ciki:

The hoopoe dropped the letter in front of the queen and flew away to hide. She excitedly opened and read it:

"Lalle! Daga Sulaiman yake, kuma lalle! Yana cewa: 'Da sunan Allah, Mai rahama, Mai jin kai; kada ku yi girman kai a kaina, amma ku zo mini kuna Musulmi (masu imani na gaskiya da suke mika kai gaba ɗaya).'" (Suratul Naml, 27:30-31).

"Verily! It is from Solomon, and verily! It reads: 'In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, and Most Merciful; be you not exalted against me, but come to me as Muslims (true believers who submit with full submission).'" ( Ch 27:30-31 Quran).

Sarauniya ta damu matuka, sai ta gaggauta kiran masu ba ta shawara. Su kuwa suka mayar da martani kamar yadda ake yi wa kalubale, domin sun ji cewa akwai wani da yake kalubalantar su, yana nuni ga yaki da kaye, yana kuma neman su mika wuya ga sharuddansa.

The queen was very disturbed and hurriedly summoned her advisors. They reacted as to a challenge, for they felt that there was someone challenging them, hinting at war and defeat, and asking them to submit to his conditions.

Sun gaya mata cewa suna iya ba da shawara kawai, amma haƙƙinta ne ta umarci a aiwatar da aiki. Ta ji cewa suna so su mayar da barazanar mamayar Sulaiman da yaƙi. Sai dai ta ce musu:

They told her that they could only offer advice, but it was her right to command action. She sensed that they wanted to meet Solomon's invasion threat with a battle. However, she told them:

"Zaman lafiya da abota sun fi kyau kuma sun fi hikima; yaƙi kawai yana kawo wulakanci, yana bautar da mutane kuma yana lalata abubuwa masu kyau. Na yanke shawarar aika kyaututtuka ga Sulaiman, waɗanda aka zaɓo daga cikin dukiyarmu mafi daraja. Fadawan da za su kai kyaututtukan za su sami dama kuma su koyi game da Sulaiman da ƙarfinsa na yaƙi."

"Peace and friendship are better and wiser; war only brings humiliation, enslaves people and destroys the good things. I have decided to send gifts to Solomon, selected from our most precious treasure. The courtiers who will deliver the gifts will also have an opportunity to learn about Solomon and his military mighty."

Ƙungiyar binciken Sulaiman ta kawo masa labarin isowar manzannin Bilkis tare da kyauta. Nan take ya fahimci cewa sarauniyar ta aiko mutanenta ne don yin leƙen asiri, sai ya ba da umarnin a tara rundunar sojansa.

Solomon's reconnaissance team brought him the news of the arrival of Bilkis' messengers with a gift. He immediately realized that the queen had sent her men on a probing mission thus, he gave orders to rally the army. The envoys of Bilqis, entering amidst the well-equipped army, realized that their wealth was nothing in comparison to that of the kingdom of Solomon's palace floors, which were made of sandalwood and inlaid with gold.

Sun lura da Sulaiman yana duba rundunarsa, sai suka yi mamaki game da yawan sojojin da kuma banbancin irinsu, waɗanda suka haɗa da zaki, damisa, da tsuntsaye. Manzannin suka tsaya cikin mamaki, suna gane cewa suna gaban wata runduna da ba a iya tsayayya da ita ba.

They noticed Solomon surveying his army, and they were surprised at the number and variety of soldiers, which included lions, tigers, and birds. The messengers stood in amazement, realizing that they were in front of an irresistible army.

Wakilan sun yi mamaki da daukakar da ke kewaye da su. Sun yi gaggawar gabatar da kyaututtuka masu daraja na sarauniyarsu, sun kuma gaya wa Sulaiman cewa sarauniyar tana son ya karbe su a matsayin alamar abota. Sun girgiza da martanin da ya mayar: bai ma nemi a bude murfin kwantenan ba! Ya ce musu: "Allah ya ba ni dukiya mai yawa, mulki mai girma, da annabci."

The envoys marveled at the splendor surrounding them. They eagerly presented their queen's precious gifts and told Solomon that the queen wished that he would accept them as an act of friendship. They were shocked by his reaction: he did not even ask to open the covers of the containers! He told them: "Allah hagiven me plenty of wealth, a large kingdom, and prophethood.

"Don haka, ba ni da wata hanyar cin hanci. Manufata kawai ita ce yada imani da Tauhidi, Kadaitakar Allah." Haka kuma ya umarce su da su mayar da kyautocin ga sarauniya, kuma su gaya mata cewa idan ba ta daina irin ibadar da take yi ba, zai tumɓuke mulkinta, ya kori mutanenta daga ƙasar.

I am, therefore, beyond bribery. My only objective is to spread the belief in Tawheed, the Oneness of Allah." He also directed them to take back the gifts to the queen and to tell her that if she did not stop her kind of worship he would uproot her kingdom and drive its people out of the land.

Manzannan sarauniya sun dawo da kyaututtukan tare da isar da saƙon. Sun kuma faɗa mata abubuwan al'ajabi da suka gani. Maimakon ta yi fushi, sai ta yanke shawarar ziyartar Sulaiman.

The queen's envoys returned with the gifts and delivered the message. They also told her of the wonderful things they had seen. Instead of taking offense, she decided to visit Solomon.

Tare da jami'an fadarta da barorinta, ta bar Saba, tana aika manzo gaba don sanar da Sulaiman cewa tana kan hanyarta ta zuwa ganinsa.

Accompanied by her royal officials and servants, she left Sheba, sending a messenger ahead to inform Solomon that she was on her way to meet him.

Sulaiman ya tambayi aljannun da ke aikinsa ko akwai wanda daga cikinsu zai iya kawo masa kujerar sarautar matar nan kafin ta zo.

Ba a jima ba bayan wannan, wanda yake da ilimin Littafi ya gama maganarsa, sai kujerar ta tsaya a gaban Sulaiman. Lallai an kammala aikin cikin kiftawar ido.

Solomon asked the jinns in his employ whether anyone among them could bring her throne to he palace before she arrived. One of them said; "I will bring it to you before this sitting is over." Solomon did not react to this offer; it appeared that he was waiting for a faster means. The jinns competed with each other to please him. One of them named Ifrit said: "I will fetch it for you in the twinkling of an eye!" No sooner had this one - who had the knowledge of the Book - finished his phrase than the throne stood before Solomon. The mission had, indeed, been completed in the blinking of an eye.

Kujerar Sulaiman tana cikin Falasdinu, kuma kujerar Bilkis tana Yaman, nisan mil dubu biyu. Wannan babbar mu'ujiza ce wanda ya yi ta ne daga cikin mutanen da ke zaune tare da Sulaiman.

Solomon's seat was in Palestine, and the throne of Bilqis had been in Yemen, two thousand miles away. This was a great miracle performed by one of those sitting with Solomon.

Allah Mai Iko Duka ya ba mu labarin nan a cikin Alkur'ani:

Almighty Allah told us this story in the Quran:

Ya duba tsuntsaye, sai ya ce: "Me ya faru da ni ban ga hudhud ba? Ko kuwa yana daga cikin wadanda ba su halarta ba? Lalle zan yi masa azaba mai tsanani, ko kuwa in yanka shi, sai dai idan ya kawo mini hujja bayyananniya." Amma hudhud bai dade ba, sai ya zo ya ce: "Na samu sani (na abin da ba ka sani ba)."

" He inspected the birds, and said: "What is the matter that I see not a hoopoe? Or is he among the absentees? I will surely punish him with a severe torment, or slaughter him, unless he brings me a clear reason." But the hoopoe stayed not long, he came up and said: "I have grasped (the knowledge of a thing)

"...wanda ba ka sani ba, kuma na zo maka da labari na gaskiya daga Saba'. Na samu wata mace tana mulkin mutanen, kuma an ba ta dukkan abubuwan da za a iya mallaka wa kowane mai mulki a duniya, kuma tana da babban kujerar mulki.

which you have not grasped and I have come to you from Sheba with true news. I found a woman ruling over them, and she has been given all things that could be possessed by any ruler of the earth, and she has a great throne. I found her and her people worshipping the sun instead of Allah, and Satan has made their deeds fair seeming to them, and has barred them from Allah's Way, so they have no guidance." Al-La (this word has two interpretations) [As Satan has barred them from Allah's Way} so that they do not worship (prostrate before) Allah, or so that they may worship (prostrate before)

Solomon's public work was largely carried out by the jinns. This was a punishment for their sins of making people believe that they were all-powerful, knew the unseen, and could foresee the future. As a prophet, it was Solomon's duty to remove such false beliefs from his followers.

Solomon lived amidst glory, and all creatures were subjected to him. Then Allah the Exalted ordained for him to die. His life and death were full of wonders and miracles; thus, his death harmonized with his life and glory. His death, like his life, was unique. The people had to learn that the future is known neither by the jinns, nor by the prophets, but by Allah alone. Solomon's effort in this direction did not end with his life, for even his death became an example. He was sitting holding his staff, overseeing the jinns at work in a mine. He died sitting in this position. For a long time no one was aware of his death, for he was seen sitting erect. The jinns continued with their sand toil, thinking that Solomon was watching over them.

Bayan kwanaki da dama, wata tururuwa mai jin yunwa ta fara cizon sandar Sulaiman. Ta ci gaba da yin haka, tana cin ɓangaren ƙasan sandar, har sai da ta faɗi daga hannun Sulaiman, sai babban jikinsa ya faɗi ƙasa.

Many days later, a hungry ant began nibbling Solomon's staff. It continued to do so, eating the lower part of the staff, until it fell out of Solomon's hand, and his great body fell to the ground.

People hurried to him, realizing that he had died a long time ago and that the jinns did not perceive the unseen, for had the jinns known the unseen, they would not have kept working, thinking that Solomon was alive.

Allah Maɗaukakin Sarki ya saukar da cewa:

Allah the Exalted revealed:

Mun kuma sa wa ma'aikatan ruwan tagulla narkakke ya gudana, kuma akwai aljannu da suke aiki a gabansa da izinin Ubangijinsa, duk wanda ya karkata daga umarninmu daga cikinsu, za mu ɗanɗana masa azabar wuta mai ci.

"And We caused a fount of molten brass to flow for him, and there were jinns that worked in front of him by the Leave of his Lord, and whosoever of them turned aside from Our Command, We shall cause him to taste of the torment of the blazing Fire.
