Ayat 16. And
Sulaiman PBUH (Solomon) inherited (the knowledge of) Dawud PBUH
(David). He said: "O mankind! We have been taught the language of birds,
and on us have been bestowed all things. This, verily, is an evident
grace (from Allah)."
১৬. সুলায়মান
দাউদের উত্তরাধিকারী হয়েছিলেন। বলেছিলেন, ‘হে
লোক সকল, আমাকে উড়ন্ত
পক্ষীকূলের ভাষা শিক্ষা দেয়া হয়েছে এবং আমাকে সব কিছু দেয়া হয়েছে। নিশ্চয়
এটা সুস্পষ্ট শ্রেষ্ঠত্ব।’
Tafseer of Surah Al Naml (The Ants) Ayat 16. And
Solomon was David´s heir. He said: "O ye people! We have been taught
the speech of birds, and on us has been bestowed (a little) of all
things: this is indeed Grace manifest (from Allah.) "The
point is that Solomon not only inherited his father's kingdom but his
spiritual insight and the prophetic office, which do not necessarily go
from father to son. Speech of Birds. The spoken word in human speech is
different from the means of communication which birds and animals have
between each other. But no man can doubt that they have means of
communication with each other, if he only observes the orderly flight of
migratory birds or the regulated behavior of ants, bees, and other
creatures who live in communities. The wisdom of Solomon and others like
him (he speaks of "we") consisted in understanding these things-in the
animal world and in the lower fringes of human intelligence. A little of
all things: Solomon was a king of power and authority; outside his
kingdom he had influence among many neighboring peoples: he had
knowledge of birds, and beasts and plants: he was just and wise, and
understood men: and above all, he had spiritual insight, which brought
him near to Allah. Thus he had something of all kinds of desirable
gifts. And with true gratitude he referred them to Allah, the Giver of
all gifts.
Hazrat Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah[SAWW](PBUH) said, The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said, "When Allah wishes good for someone, He bestows upon him the understanding of Deen.''
[Al-Bukhari Book 01, Chapter 03, Hadith # 071].
Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Naml Ayat 16 " verily, is an evident grace (from Allah)” Knowledge
and understanding of Deen (religion) here stands for the understanding
of the Qur'an and Hadith, religious injunctions, and knowledge of the
lawful and the unlawful. This Hadith highlights the excellence of
knowledge and the fact that it is a sign of Allah's Help to the person
who possesses it and acts upon it.
