Prophet Sulaiman was surely one of the best in the line of the Prophets of Allah sent to the people. Allah never sent to the people a Messenger except from the best among them. He made in their persons and character a sign for the people to learn from and emulate as well as proof of their divine message. He gave then special favours amongst the people and raise them from the best of lineage. Prophet Sulaimain was not just a prophet and messenger, he was a king born of a king and the richest among them all. He was given power and authority over men, jinns, birds and animals alongside his vast wealth. Prophet Sulaiman acknowledges Allah’s favours with this supplication.
I am a woman
Yes, I am
I have a life to live
Just like everybody else
I have a mind to think
Just like everybody else
I have a wish for my life
Just like everybody else

All the sovereignty is for You
And You have no partners with you.

It is Hajj season now and people from all over the world are heading towards Mecca to perform the pilgrimage and I created this card as a tribute and reminder to the Hujjaj. May Allah accept their Hajj and enable the rest of us who are yet to go to make the journey.
