     ‏وَلِسُلَيْمَانَ الرِّيحَ عَاصِفَةً تَجْرِي بِأَمْرِهِ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ ٱلَّتِي بَارَكْنَا فِيهَا وَكُنَّا بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَالِمِينَ‎

     walisulaymāna r-rīḥa ʿāṣifatan tajrī biʾamrihi ʾilā l-ʾarḍi llatī bāraknā fīhā wakunnā bikulli šayʾin ʿālimīna

     And unto Solomon the stormy wind, so that it sped at his behest towards the land which We had blessed: for it is We who have knowledge of everything.
