@malakiyl: The legendary Queen of Sheba is one of the most fascinating figures in Islam. The wife of King Solomon and a queen in her own right, her story is full of mystery and jinn. The core narrative of the Queen of Sheba and her encounter with Solomon is found in the Quran (27:20-44) ‘A hoopoe brings word of a mighty queen whose people worship the sun. Solomon sends word to the queen to come before him and receive the word of God. The queen, showing wisdom comes to Solomon. The prophet deciding to demonstrate his power commands his servants to bring her magnificent throne to him. One of the jinn steps forward promising to bring it swiftly, but another servant, wise and learned, says he can bring the throne before Solomon in the blink of an eye. The throne is brought before Solomon and placed before a great glass or mirrored floor. When the queen arrives, she marvels at the sight of her throne and what she thinks is a pool of water. She lifts her skirt to wade into the pool, but Solomon shows her it is wondrous glass. Impressed, the queen converts and marries Solomon. The Queen of Sheba is known as Bilqis, she is the daughter of a Yemeni King, Al Hadhad. When the king was young, he was out hunting when he came upon a family of deer. He stayed his hunting bow and for his mercy was rewarded by the king of the jinn Sakan with a jinn wife. He married the jinn princess known as Baltaga or Ruwaha. Their daughter is Bilgis, making her part jinn. She had many brothers and sisters, but upon her siblings' birth, jinn in the form of dogs came and carried them off to the hidden realms. Upon her father's death, Bilqis became queen and ruled wisely. In the kitab al tijan, likely recounting one of the older legends, she did not succeed her father, but rather the throne went to a tyrant who abused his subjects. Making overtures to the tyrant she promised to marry, but upon his wedding night she beheads him and mounts his vile head on the gates. When the kingdom sees that she liberated them from the tyrant, they all vow allegiance to her. #fyp #islam #jinn #queenbilqis #queenofsheba #kingsolomon
