The Holy Quran 21:81 — Surah Al-Anbya

Arabic text

وَلِسُلَيْمَـٰنَ ٱلرِّيحَ عَاصِفَةً تَجْرِى بِأَمْرِهِۦٓ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِى بَـٰرَكْنَا فِيهَا ۚ وَكُنَّا بِكُلِّ شَىْءٍ عَـٰلِمِينَ

Translation

And We placed the swift wind at the service of Sulaymaan عليه الصلاة والسلام. By his command, it carried him (within a short span of time) to the land that We had blessed (Shaam, a months journey away). We have knowledge of all things (We always knew that these tremendous bounties would not cause pride to creep into his heart).

Tafsir (excerpt) — التفسير الميسر

وسخَّرنا لسليمان الريح شديدة الهبوب تحمله ومَن معه، تجري بأمره إلى أرض «بيت المقدس» بـ «الشام» التي باركنا فيها بالخيرات الكثيرة، وقد أحاط علمنا بجميع الأشياء.
