Sulayman

This portion of Al-Kitab is also called “Song of Songs”, “Song of Solomon”, or “Canticles”. According to 1 Kings 4:32, the prophet-king Sulayman (pbuh) wrote 1,005 songs. This song is said to be “the song of songs” (1:1), or the most beautiful of all his songs. This scripture of Sulayman (pbuh) encourages the preservation of genuine love and holiness in the marriage relationship. If a believer properly understands it, he or she will receive wisdom in regard to married life. It should be read with prayer. When we come to the place where we understand marriage well, then we will also better understand the relationship between Allah and his people.
