An-Naml

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Surah Al-Naml (Arabic: سورة النمل ) (The Ant, The Ants) is the 27th sura of the Qur'an with 93 ayat.

[edit] Summary

The surah tells the stories of various prophets, such as Moses, Salomon and Salih, which preached tawhid. The story of Salomon is more detailed. It is said that Salomon has converted Bilqis to the true religion after a hoopoe reported to him that she is a Sun-worshipping queen. The miracles of Moses, desribed in the Bible, are also mentioned. The name of the surah is taken from the ants whose conversations were allegedly understood by Solomon.
