Q300 What is the meaning of the “wind blowing violently” and which is the blessed land mentioned in verse (21:81): “And to Solomon (We subdued) the violently blowing wind, which blew at his command towards the land which We have blessed.”

A300 The real miracles of the Prophets take place in the personal world. Thus, the throne of Hazrat Solomon(c) was spiritual and the violently blowing wind that was carrying it on its shoulder was also in spirituality. The blessed land is the sacred Sanctuary. If the flight of the Prophets and awliya was physical and not spiritual, then in the present context where we have aeroplanes, such a miracle would have lost its magnificence and importance. This is not possible.
