الرَّاجِعُ الْمُنِيبُ، وَقَوْلُهُ: {هَبْ لِي مُلْكًا لاَ يَنْبَغِي لأَحَدٍ مِنْ بَعْدِي} وَقَوْلُهُ: {وَاتَّبَعُوا مَا تَتْلُوا الشَّيَاطِينُ عَلَى مُلْكِ سُلَيْمَانَ}، {وَلِسُلَيْمَانَ الرِّيحَ غُدُوُّهَا شَهْرٌ وَرَوَاحُهَا شَهْرٌ وَأَسَلْنَا لَهُ عَيْنَ الْقِطْرِ} أَذَبْنَا لَهُ عَيْنَ الْحَدِيدِ {وَمِنَ الْجِنِّ مَنْ يَعْمَلُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ} إِلَى قَوْلِهِ: {مِنْ مَحَارِيبَ} قَالَ مُجَاهِدٌ بُنْيَانٌ مَا دُونَ الْقُصُورِ {وَتَمَاثِيلَ وَجِفَانٍ كَالْجَوَابِ} كَالْحِيَاضِ لِلإِبِلِ. وَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: كَالْجَوْبَةِ مِنَ الأَرْضِ {وَقُدُورٍ رَاسِيَاتٍ} إِلَى قَوْلِهِ: {الشَّكُورُ}، {فَلَمَّا قَضَيْنَا عَلَيْهِ الْمَوْتَ مَا دَلَّهُمْ عَلَى مَوْتِهِ إِلاَّ دَابَّةُ الأَرْضِ} الأَرَضَةُ {تَأْكُلُ مِنْسَأَتَهُ} عَصَاهُ {فَلَمَّا خَرَّ} إِلَى قَوْلِهِ: {الْمُهِينِ}، {حُبَّ الْخَيْرِ عَنْ ذِكْرِ رَبِّي}، {فَطَفِقَ مَسْحًا بِالسُّوقِ وَالأَعْنَاقِ} يَمْسَحُ أَعْرَافَ الْخَيْلِ وَعَرَاقِيبَهَا الأَصْفَادُ الْوَثَاقُ. قَالَ مُجَاهِدٌ: {الصَّافِنَاتُ} صَفَنَ الْفَرَسُ رَفَعَ إِحْدَى رِجْلَيْهِ حَتَّى تَكُونَ عَلَى طَرَفِ الْحَافِرِ. {الْجِيَادُ} السِّرَاعُ. {جَسَدًا} شَيْطَانًا. {رُخَاءً} طَيِّبَةً، {حَيْثُ أَصَابَ} حَيْثُ شَاءَ. {فَامْنُنْ} أَعْطِ. {بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ} بِغَيْرِ حَرَجٍ.And His Statement:-- He said: My Lord Forgive me and grant me a kingdom such as shall not belong to any other after me.' (38.35) And His Statement:-- 'And they followed what the Devils gave out (falsely), of magic in the life-time of Solomon.' (2.102)

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الزِّنَادِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّهُ، سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ‏"‏ مَثَلِي وَمَثَلُ النَّاسِ كَمَثَلِ رَجُلٍ اسْتَوْقَدَ نَارًا، فَجَعَلَ الْفَرَاشُ وَهَذِهِ الدَّوَابُّ تَقَعُ فِي النَّارِ ‏"‏‏.‏ وَقَالَ ‏"‏ كَانَتِ امْرَأَتَانِ مَعَهُمَا ابْنَاهُمَا جَاءَ الذِّئْبُ فَذَهَبَ بِابْنِ إِحْدَاهُمَا، فَقَالَتْ صَاحِبَتُهَا إِنَّمَا ذَهَبَ بِابْنِكِ‏.‏ وَقَالَتِ الأُخْرَى إِنَّمَا ذَهَبَ بِابْنِكِ‏.‏ فَتَحَاكَمَتَا إِلَى دَاوُدَ، فَقَضَى بِهِ لِلْكُبْرَى فَخَرَجَتَا عَلَى سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ دَاوُدَ فَأَخْبَرَتَاهُ‏.‏ فَقَالَ ائْتُونِي بِالسِّكِّينِ أَشُقُّهُ بَيْنَهُمَا‏.‏ فَقَالَتِ الصُّغْرَى لاَ تَفْعَلْ يَرْحَمُكَ اللَّهُ، هُوَ ابْنُهَا‏.‏ فَقَضَى بِهِ لِلصُّغْرَى ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ وَاللَّهِ إِنْ سَمِعْتُ بِالسِّكِّينِ إِلاَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ، وَمَا كُنَّا نَقُولُ إِلاَّ الْمُدْيَةُ‏.‏

Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "My example and the example o the people is like that of a person who lit a fire and let the moths, butterflies and these insects fall in it." He also said, "There were two women, each of whom had a child with her. A wolf came and took away the child of one of them, whereupon the other said, 'It has taken your child.' The first said, 'But it has taken your child.' So they both carried the case before David who judged that the living child be given to the elder lady. So both of them went to Solomon bin David and informed him (of the case). He said, 'Bring me a knife so as to cut the child into two pieces and distribute it between them.' The younger lady said, 'May Allah be merciful to you! Don't do that, for it is her (i.e. the other lady's) child.' So he gave the child to the younger lady."
