The Story of Solomon in Qur'an
-
Peace to all,
What you talking about, they have alot of archeological evidence of Solomons KIngdom, http//astuteblogger.blogspot.com/2010/02/archaeologists-discover-part-of.html
"Nothing indisputably of Solomon's reign has been found."
http//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SolomonYet we have clear and unequivocal evidence from other - lesser - civilisations!
The fact that "Nothing indisputably of Solomon's reign has been found" - when it was a kingdom of such magnitude is at the very least - extremely suspicious - no?
-
OK, here's a question for you - which I asked above.
How come there is no trace of Solomon's Kingdom - the like of which will never be granted to anyone after him - and which contained a "lofty palace" and many other buildings and statues and stuff that the Jinn built for him etc...?
Even though we have archeological evidence of all the "lesser" kingdoms and cultures and peoples of that region of that time?
How can that be?
like of which will never be granted to anyone after him ( thet is hidden from you) )

Peace,
You go from saying there is a total lack of evidence to saying the evidence found is not indisputable. Either way, aalmakto is right; the absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. To suffice your evidentialism though, you should check out the work of the historians who believe there is enough evidence to grant that such a kingdom existed. I personally am not concerned either way.
Peace -
The total lack of evidence, is not just astonishing - but totally exposes the claims the Qur'an makes. The Qur'an claims that there was a great king called Solomon who had a mighty kingdom "the like of which will never be seen after him"

and You grant me such a rule of kingdom that it may not be possible for a single one after me to acquire it for himselfhttp//haqeeqat.org.pk/English%20Tafsir%20e%20Haqeeqat/00.Arabic%20Text/038.%20Suad/38.36.gif
In response We subjected for him the particular breeze

it moved/blew under his command
http//haqeeqat.org.pk/English%20Tafsir%20e%20Haqeeqat/00.Arabic%20Text/038.%20Suad/38.36b.gif
gently from the direction/place wherever he had found it.This is the peculiar feature of his Rule which shall never be acquired by any Ruler in the world. If any country gets control over this particular breeze, the rest of the lands of the world will have no or little grain/grasses crops, since they will keep it directing towards their own lands all the time.

So you are saying it has been hidden away?

PeaceYou are the one who should check out the evidence

Not sure what point you are making here.

I suggested that instead of making a tune and start dancing presuming it from Qur'aan first read what the Qur'aan said.
Wow, I never thought of that - thanks!
