(Sol′o‧mon) [from a root meaning "peace"].
Son of King David of the line of Judah; king of Israel from 1037 to 998 B.C.E. The Bible record, after reporting the death of the son born to David through his illicit relations with Bath-sheba, continues: "And David began to comfort Bath-sheba his wife. Further, he came in to her and lay down with her. In time she bore a son, and his name came to be called Solomon. And Jehovah himself did love him. So he sent by means of Nathan the prophet and called his name Jedidiah, for the sake of Jehovah." (2Sa 12:24, 25) Solomon later had three full brothers, sons of David and Bath-sheba: Shimea, Shobab, and Nathan.-1Ch 3:5.
Islamic answerAnd to Dawud(David) We gave Sulai'man(Solomon). How Excellent a slave! Verily, he was ever oft returning in repentance (to Us)!And Sulai'man inherited (the knowledge of) Dawud. He said: "O mankind! We have been taught the language of birds, and on us have been bestowed all things. This, verily, is an evident grace (from Allah)."
And there were gathered before Sulai'man his hosts of jinns and men, and birds, and they were all set in battle order (marching forwards). (27:15-17 Quran).
