Till, when they came to the valley of the
ants, one of the ants said: "O ants! Enter
your dwellings, lest Sulaimān (Solomon)
and his hosts crush you, while they
perceive not."
(An-Naml 27:18)
So he [Sulaimān (Solomon)] smiled, amused
at her speech and said: "My Lord! Inspire
and bestow upon me the power and ability
that I may be grateful for Your Favours
which You have bestowed on me and on my
parents, and that I may do righteous good
deeds that will please You, and admit me by
Your Mercy among Your righteous slaves."
(An-Naml 27:19)
1. ANIMALS HAVE A LANGUAGE THEY SPEAK
-this is why the ant was able to communicate
2. ANIMALS ARE ABLE TO RECOGNISE PEOPLE
- or the ant won’t have been able to recognize
Sulayman (a.s)
3. FEMALE ANIMALS HAVE MOTHERLY INSTINCTS
4. ANIMALS HAVE EMOTIONS LIKE US
5. THE ANT WASN'T SELFISH, SHE CARED FOR OTHER
ANTS
6. SULAYMAN (A.S) WAS GIFTED TO UNDERSTAND
THE LANGUAGE OF ANIMALS
Then when We decreed death for him
[Sulaimān (Solomon)], nothing
informed them (jinns) of his death
except a little worm of the earth, which
kept (slowly) gnawing away at his stick,
so when he fell down, the jinns saw
clearly that if they had known the
unseen, they would not have stayed in
the humiliating torment. (Saba' 34:14)
-the jinns were still working for Sulayman
(a.s) even after he was dead until the
termites ate up his stick
-not look down
upon any of
Allah’s creation
- jinns can’t see
the unseen
Do they not see that We have created for
them of what Our Hands have created, the
cattle, so that they are their owners.
And We have
subdued them unto
them so that some of
them they have for
riding and some they
eat. (Ya-Sin 36:71-72)
And they have (other)
benefits from them
(besides), and they get
(milk) to drink, will they
not then be grateful?
(Ya-Sin 36:73)
1. It provides food

And your Lord
inspired the bee,
saying: "Take you
habitations in the
mountains and in the
trees and in what
they erect.
(An-Nahl 16:68)
"Then, eat of all fruits, and follow the
ways of your Lord made easy (for you)."
There comes forth from their bellies, a
drink of varying colour wherein is
healing for men. Verily, in this is indeed
a sign for people who think. (An-Nahl 16:69)
1.Look at the surah (An-Nahl); it is in the plural
-they have to survive in a colony; they have a
community
2.Allah (swt) stated that He inspired the bees to
make the honey
3.It is the female bee that builds the colony and
makes the honey
-she goes around looking for nectar
4.Why did Allah name the surah An-Nahl (the bees)?
-they are organized, united and have an ameer
-the honey has many benefits
And Solomon was David’s heir. He said: “O
my people! We have been taught the speech
of birds…”(27- The Ant, 16)
There is no creature crawling on the
earth or flying creature, flying on its
wings, who are not communities just
like yourselves… (Qur'an, 6:38)
1) Prophet Solomon was taught the speech of
birds.
2) Quran refers to the communication
between birds.
-call to come together and express alarm
-communal animals operate together in the
face of danger
-a flock of birds flying together protects all
its members in the same way
When birds of prey such as hawks or owls enter
the area, smaller birds surround these birds as a
group. They then produce a special sound to draw
other birds to the area. The aggressive behaviour
displayed by small birds en masse generally drives
birds of prey away.
A flock of starlings flying together leave a wide
distance between one another. When they see a
hawk, however, they close the distance between
them. They thus make it harder for the hawk to
dive in amidst the flock. Even if the hawk does so,
it will be acting to its own detriment. Its wings will
be damaged and it will be unable to hunt.
