MCQ Detailed View

Hazrat Sulaiman (A.S.), also known as Prophet Solomon, is the Prophet who died while standing with the support of a stick. This miraculous event is mentioned in the Holy Qur’an, in Surah Saba (34:14):

“Then when We decreed death for him, nothing informed them of his death except a creature of the earth eating his staff...”

Hazrat Sulaiman (A.S.) was known for his extraordinary kingdom, which included control over jinn, humans, animals, and even the wind. When he passed away, he was standing upright, leaning on his staff. The jinn continued working, thinking he was alive, until a termite gnawed through the stick, causing his body to fall. Only then did they realize he had died.

This event demonstrated that jinn do not possess knowledge of the unseen, and it served as a powerful lesson in humility and divine wisdom. It also highlighted the miraculous nature of his death and the continuation of divine order even after a Prophet’s passing.
