Surah Saba 34:12

 

34:12

وَلِسُلَيْمَـٰنَ ٱلرِّيحَ غُدُوُّهَا شَهْرٌۭ وَرَوَاحُهَا شَهْرٌۭ ۖ وَأَسَلْنَا لَهُۥ عَيْنَ ٱلْقِطْرِ ۖ وَمِنَ ٱلْجِنِّ مَن يَعْمَلُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهِۦ ۖ وَمَن يَزِغْ مِنْهُمْ عَنْ أَمْرِنَا نُذِقْهُ مِنْ عَذَابِ ٱلسَّعِيرِ ١٢

And to Solomon ˹We subjected˺ the wind: its morning stride was a month’s journey and so was its evening stride. And We caused a stream of molten copper to flow for him, and ˹We subjected˺ some of the jinn to work under him by his Lord’s Will. And whoever of them deviated from Our command, we made them taste the torment of the blaze.

MY OPINIONS:

Imagine Allah giving you control over the wind and jinn. The one who does not have the Taqwa of Allah (consciousness/fear), or an ordinary layman would most definitely misuse this power if obtained by God. Allah grants power to whomever He wills, but to Him lies all power in the heavens and Earth alone. Imagine yourself instructing a Jinn to get items from different parts of the Earth. This type of power cannot be compared to any other worldly lavish we enjoy in the 21st century.

Of course, Allah granted these miracles to Prophets only, as they were created wise by Allah and free of sin to deliver the message of Tawheed (monotheism) to different parts of the world. However, analogically speaking, if an individual were to be given these powers by Allah, he would have to be wise, mature, and not emotionally influenced by his decisions, which no man is, except Prophets of Allah. It is a heavy responsibility to be able to control the wind and Jinn's through the permission of Allah. If you have not yet comprehended the severity of controlling Jinns under your command, here's the quick facts about Jinn:

Jinns have the ability to cross nations within seconds. They have the power to influence people, Allah gave them superhuman power, they're created that way. So they're stronger than us physically and can manipulate physical object that we see it as "supernatural". It's in the Quran, where the Prophet Sulaiman A.S asked the Jinn to bring the throne of Sheba and a Jinn does so in a blink of an eye. Physically, they are way more powerful than humans. They can fly, shapeshift, possess (in worst cases), steal etc. They also eat and drink. They have long lives. Live for hundreds and thousands of years.

Now imagine being able to control them. 

It's these types of verses which are miraculous, scientific, and powerful that touch the heart Subhan Allah. May Allah grant us more understanding of the Quran and wisdom. Just reflecting on these ayahs leaves you in a different dimension in this very Earth.
