﴿ فَلَمَّا جَآءَتْ قِيلَ أَهَٰكَذَا عَرْشُكِ ۖ قَالَتْ كَأَنَّهُۥ هُوَ ۚ وَأُوتِينَا ٱلْعِلْمَ مِن قَبْلِهَا وَكُنَّا مُسْلِمِينَ ﴾

“And so, as soon as she arrived, she was asked: “Is thy throne like this?” She answered: “It is as though it were the same!” [And Solomon said to his nobles: “She has arrived at the truth without any help from us,] although it is we who have been given [divine] knowledge before her, and have [long ago] surrendered ourselves unto God!”

(So, when she came, it was said (unto her)) Solomon said to her: (Is thy throne like this? She said: (It is) as though it were the very one. And (Solomon said): We were given the knowledge before her) Allah has given me [knowledge], by changing her throne and bringing to me, even before she arrived, (and we had surrendered (to Allah)) and we were sincere before she arrived.
