Transliteration:( Innaa sakhkharnal jibaala ma'ahoo yusabbihna bil'ashiyyi wal ishraaq )
"Certainly We subjected [30] the mountains to him that they, with him, glorified [31] Allah at nightfall and sunrise [32]."
Allah had subjected the mountains to Hazrat Dawood (peace be upon him), meaning they would respond to his command, just as the natural world was also placed under the control of Hazrat Sulaiman (peace be upon him).
The mountains glorified Allah aloud along with Dawood, and he could actually hear their praises. This was a miracle granted to him, showing how creation joined him in worship.
The glorification occurred at sunrise and sunset, emphasizing the importance of consistent worship, especially during Fajr and Asr. These times are highlighted for their spiritual significance and reward.
