Read in Context

Chapter 27, Page 379, Juz 19

20. And he sought among the birds and said: How is it that I see not the hoopoe, or is he among the absent? 21. I verily will punish him with hard punishment or I verily will slay him, or he verily shall bring me a plain excuse. 22. But he was not long in coming, and he said: I have found out (a thing) that thou apprehendest not, and I come unto thee from Sheba with sure tidings. 23. Lo! I found a woman ruling over them, and she hath been given (abundance) of all things, and hers is a mighty throne. 24. I found her and her people worshipping the sun instead of Allah; and Satan maketh their works fairseeming unto them, and debarreth them from the way (of Truth), so that they go not aright; 25. So that they worship not Allah, Who bringeth forth the hidden in the heavens and the earth, and knoweth what ye hide and what ye proclaim, 26. Allah; there is no Allah save Him, the Lord of the Tremendous Throne. 27. (Solomon) said: We shall see whether thou speakest truth or whether thou art of the liars. 28. Go with this my letter and throw it down unto them; then turn away and see what (answer) they return, 29. (The Queen of Sheba) said (when she received the letter): O chieftains! Lo! there hath been thrown unto me a noble letter. 30. Lo! it is from Solomon, and lo! it is: In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful; 31. Exalt not yourselves against me, but come unto me as those who surrender.
