Queen of Sheba, Queen of Yemen and Arabia, A Discovery channel production USA بلقيس بنت الهدهاد بن شرحبيل، ملكة سبأ، وصاحبة القصة المشهورة في القرآن مع نبي الله سليمان. كانت من بيت عز وجاه وملك، وحكمت مملكتها سبأ باليمن، وهي أقدم الممالك اليمنية العربية، وجاء ذكرها في التوراة، وفي بعض النقوش التي خلفها الملك سرجون ملك آشور (720-705 ق.م) وكانت عاصمتها مأرب بعد أن انتقلت من صرواح.

كان لبلقيس شأن عظيم في قومها ودولتها، حيث أوتيت من الملك والنعم الكثير، وكانت تعبد الشمس هي وقومها ذو العتاد والعدة والمنعة في زمانهم. وقد ورد ذكر قصتها في القرآن الكريم دون التصريح باسمها، حيث إنها عاصرت نبي الله سليمان عليه السلام الذي آتاه الله الملك، ووضع تحت يديه الإنس والجن، وأتاه علمًا يعرف به منطق الطير (لغته) ﴿وحشر لسليمان جنوده من الجن والإنس والطير فهم يوزعون﴾ النمل: 17 .

علم سليمان بأمر بلقيس وعبادتها وقومها للشمس من دون الله، فأرسل إليها يطلبها هي وقومها مسلمين مذعنين، فاستشارت وزراءها وأرسلت رسلها بهدايا ثمينة إلى سليمان لتسكته أو لتعرف نيته وتفكيره، فرفض الهدية ﴿فلما جاء سليمان قال أتمدوننِ بمال فما آتانِ الله خير مما آتاكم بل أنتم بهديتكم تفرحون﴾ النمل: 36. وعادت الرسل بالهدية فتيقنت أنه نبي صادق كريم فصارت إليه بقومها مذعنة مستسلمة، وقبل وصولها أمر سليمان جنوده أن يحملوا عرشها إليه، فلما وصلت وجدته أمامها وقد تبدلت فيه أجزاء قليلة، فلما سئلت عنه قالت كأنه هو، فازدادت هدى ويقينًا وأسلمت مع سليمان لرب العالمين وقالت ﴿رب إني ظلمت نفسي وأسلمت مع سليمان لله رب العالمين﴾ النمل: 44.

وقصتها مفصلة في التفاسير في سورة النمل وبعض كتب التاريخ
The country Sheba or Saba, whose name means Host of Heaven and peace, was Abyssinia. Located in southwest Arabia on the eastern tip of the Red Sea, Sheba was thriving about 3000 years ago and occupied 483,000 square miles of mountains, valleys (wadis) and deserts in the area of present day Yemen. Some historians claim that Ethiopia, on the western end of the Red Sea, was also part of Sheba's territory.

Sheba: The Ancient Empire

The country Sheba or Saba, whose name means Host of Heaven and peace, was Abyssinia. Located in southwest Arabia on the eastern tip of the Red Sea, Sheba was thriving about 3000 years ago and occupied 483,000 square miles of mountains, valleys (wadis) and deserts in the area of present day Yemen. Some historians claim that Ethiopia, on the western end of the Red Sea, was also part of Sheba's territory.



Sheba was a wealthy country with an advanced irrigation system. Its people, the Sabaeans, built dams as high as 60 feet with spans of almost a mile. They cut large earthen wells ito the Earth, which allowed them to irrigate their abundant gardens. Sheba was also rich in gold and other precious stones. But her real wealth was in her exclusive trade in frankincense and exotic spices sought by neighboring kingdoms.

Sheba also had a very lucrative caravan trade. By 1000 B.C., camels frequently traveled the 1400 miles up the "Incense Road" and along the Red Sea to Israel. The Road began in the port of Al Mukulla and Bir Ali where ships would bring goods from distant India and the Orient.

Frankincense is unique to Yemen since it is derived from the sap of a certain tree that grows only in Yemen. Frankincense was used as an offering to the gods and its rich perfumed smoke would rise like prayers to the heavens. It's aroma also made it valuable during cremations and it was often heaped on funeral pyres. Another Sabaean spice was Myrrh, an ingredient in fragrant oils and cosmetics. It was also used in preparing bodies for burial.

There are some twists in the story. I wouldn't believe that prophet Suliman slept with her. Thats insane dudes...its not the time we're living in...where you see a girl and sleep with her. Suliman was a righteous man and she was a queen, they were not dogs.

[Hdrami]

i do not know how they get these information, there are some points right but others arent.if u r looking for the truth about her travel to the King Suloman and what he did to greet her and what where she was greeted when she arrived and what did she say when she saw the palace:she said: it looks like my palace, actully the palace was her palace !

How could be possible her palace is there?

that is how he wants to surprise her>>>>>> THE WHOLE STORY IS THE QURAN THE HOLY BOOK OF MUSLIM PEOPLE

Of God. He comanded wind. Spoke animal language. He ruled with knowledge and justice. This is a gift that God offer to Each prophet. Joseph had half beauty of mankind, jesuS raise the dead heal the blind and the pestifere. He walk on water and incarn Word of God by using I am. Moise could speak without way to God, directly he made miracle to convince Pharaon like his lighty hand the shapeshift snake. He open the red sea built the ark of convenant. David had the most beautiful voice ever. Ect. t

[roswellsam]

Salomon was not unbeliever or magician. He condemn magick by hiding all ancien babylonien books of magick the jews had in his kingdom.

He was submited to the true faith of the only one God of the Universe. Undescriptable god, flawless, not human, not genie or animal but unique. Not even a star or a planetbut the one who made what we can see.

Indeed solomon could commend genie and devil by the Will of God but it was not magick.

Its true That magick is essentialy this today but solomon was a Man

[Ace4Tree1]

It has dropped from science to story telling.And painting monotheism as a blessing as well as saying Allah seems out of place.Solomon was into magick & had ( if I may quote comments ) hundreds of wives & concubines.He was Judaic,wasn't he ? I think they have a different name for their god.Was he a henotheistic worshipper or did he summon fire spirits for fun ? I don't know,I've just got a lot of questions on any can of worms I open up.No matter how good the Royal & Religious propaganda is.
