Who among the following was granted control over wind, light, water, and animals?

Explanation

Prophet Sulaiman (A.S.), son of Prophet Dawud (A.S.), was blessed with extraordinary miracles by Allah. He was given command over the wind, which carried his throne across vast distances; he could understand the language of birds and animals; a spring of molten copper flowed for him; and the jinn were subjugated to his service. These unique powers were a special gift from Allah that no other prophet received in such combination, demonstrating Allah's limitless power and the special status granted to Prophet Sulaiman (A.S.).

Good to know

Prophet Sulaiman (A.S.) is mentioned in the Quran in several surahs, including Surah Al-Anbiya, Surah An-Naml, and Surah Saba. His kingdom was unparalleled in history, encompassing humans, jinn, birds, and animals under his command. The famous incident of the hoopoe bird bringing news of the Queen of Sheba (Bilqis) and the subsequent conversion of her kingdom to Islam is one of the most well-known stories about his prophethood. He was also known for his exceptional wisdom and justice, inherited from his father Prophet Dawud (A.S.).
