Story of Dawud and Sulayman

(Remember) David and Solomon, when they pronounced judgement about the field which was eaten up at night by sheep belonging to certain people. We were witness to their judgement.

We made Solomon understand the case, and bestowed on each wisdom and knowledge, We subdued the al-jibal (mountains) with David to sing Our praises, and at-tair (birds). It is We who did it.

And We taught him the art of making coats of mail to shield you from each other's violence. Will you not be grateful even then?

We made tempestuous winds obedient to Solomon which blew swiftly to sail at his bidding (with his ships) to the land We had blessed. We are cognisant of everything.

And many of the devils (We also made obedient to him) who dived for him, and did many other things; and We kept watch over them.
