* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn


{ قَالَ عِفْرِيتٌ مِّن ٱلْجِنِّ أَنَاْ آتِيكَ بِهِ قَبْلَ أَن تَقُومَ مِن مَّقَامِكَ وَإِنِّي عَلَيْهِ لَقَوِيٌّ أَمِينٌ }

An afreet from among the jinn — a jinn who is powerful and stalwart — said ‘I will bring it to you before you rise from your place the one in which you sit when adjudicating — the period from morning to midday. Indeed I have the strength for it that is for carrying it and I am trustworthy’ over what it may contain of jewels and other precious things. Solomon said ‘I want something faster than that!’
