* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn


{ وَلِسُلَيْمَانَ ٱلرِّيحَ عَاصِفَةً تَجْرِي بِأَمْرِهِ إِلَى ٱلأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي بَارَكْنَا فِيهَا وَكُنَّا بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَالِمِينَ }

And We disposed for Solomon the wind to blow strongly — in another verse it is described as being rukhā’an ‘to blow softly’ Q. 3836; in other words it is either blowing violently or gently respectively according to what he Solomon wanted — making its way at his command to the land which We have blessed namely Syria; and We have knowledge of all things among them the fact that God exalted be He knew that what He gave to Solomon would prompt him to be subservient to his Lord and so God did this in accordance with His knowledge.
