Suleiman (AS) was the son of Dawud (AS) and at a very young age, Allah had blessed him with intelligence and the special ability to settle disputes. After Dawud (AS)’s death Suleiman (AS) succeeded him as king and prophet. Allah had granted Suleiman (AS) control over the wind, the jins and animals. He also understood the speech of birds. The birds in the court of Suleiman (AS) would fan their wings out and provide shade for him. The Quranic revelations concerning the sovereignty of the Queen of Sheba and her encounter with King Solomon are juxtaposed with the latter’s fanciful reconstructions by medieval Muslim biographers. This chapter argues that God’s concern is not with the queen’s marital status, nor with arranging a marriage for the fabulous pair. The queen’s gender is immaterial to her leadership and governance; her faith is at the center of the Quranic revelations.
