Chapter 21, Page 328, Juz 17

78. And ˹remember˺ when David and Solomon passed judgment regarding the crops ruined ˹at night˺ by someone’s sheep, and We were witness to their judgments. 79. We guided ˹young˺ Solomon to a fairer settlement, and granted each of them wisdom and knowledge. We subjected the mountains as well as the birds to hymn ˹Our praises˺ along with David. It is We Who did ˹it all˺. 80. We taught him the art of making body armour to protect you in battle. Will you then be grateful? 81. And to Solomon We subjected the raging winds, blowing by his command to the land We had showered with blessings. It is We Who know everything. 82. And ˹We subjected˺ some jinn that dived for him, and performed other duties. It is We Who kept them in check.
