Quoting the Holy Qur’an:

An-Naml, Chapter #27, Verse #92)

An-Naml

(The Ant, The Ants) is the 27th sura of the Qur'an with 93 ayat. Sura 27 tells stories of the prophets Moses, Solomon, Salih, and Lot to emphasize the message of tawhid in Jewish and Arabian prophets.The surah mentions the phrase “bismillah Arahman Arahem” twice.The miracles of Moses, described in the Book of Exodus, are mentioned in opposition to the arrogance and kufr of Pharaoh.[1] The story of Solomon is most detailed: Solomon converted Bilqis to the "true religion" after a hoopoe reported to him that she was a sun-worshipping queen
