Transliteration:( Iz 'urida 'alaihi bil'ashiy yis saafinaatul jiyaad )
"Then there were exhibited before him in the afternoon [66] poised (standing) racehorses."
This verse refers to the time when one thousand finely-bred racehorses were presented to Hazrat Sulaiman (peace be upon him) after the Zuhr (noon) prayer. These horses were intended for Jihad (holy war) and symbolized not only his military preparation, but also his love for noble and divine causes.
Their majestic presence and discipline reflect the grandeur and strength of Sulaiman’s kingdom, and his role as both a Prophet and a ruler committed to Allah’s path.
