King Solomon’s (Prophet Sulaiman in Islamic tradition) flying carpet (UFOs?) and the armies of Jinns & Devils (ETs?)

Does anyone else see UFO & ETs here?… Some incidents from the Islamic scriptures:

“And there were gathered together unto Solomon his armies of the jinn and humankind, and of the birds, and they were set in battle order;” Quran, an-Naml (The Ants) 27:17

“They followed whatever the devils recited concerning Solomon´s control. Solomon did not disbelieve but the devils disbelieved, teaching people magic and what was sent down to Harut and Marut, two angels at Babylon. Neither of these would teach anyone unless they [first] said: “We are only a temptation, so do not disbelieve!” They learned from them both what will separate a man from his wife. Yet they do not harm anyone through it except with God´s permission. They learn what will harm them and does not benefit them. They know that anyone who deals in it will have no share in the Hereafter; how wretched is what they have sold themselves for, if they only knew!” Quran, al-Baqarah (The Cow) 2:102

Solomon-2

“And in Solomon’s service We put the stormy wind, running at his command to carry him to the land in which We have produced blessings (for people). We have full knowledge of everything (with their true nature and all their aspects). And of the jinn and satans (devils) were some who dived for him (to extract precious stones from the sea) and did other works besides, and We were keeping watch over them (to prevent them from disobeying him)” Quran, al-Anbiya (The Prophets) 21:81-82
“And We made the winds subservient to Solomon, which made a month’s journey in the morning and a month’s journey in the evening; and We made a fountain of molten copper to flow for him; and subdued Jinns for him who worked in front of him by the leave of his Lord; and if any of them turned aside from Our command, We made Him taste the punishment of the blazing fire.” Quran, Saba` (The Sabaeans) 34:12

The Muslim tradition says that Solomon used to travel on a carpet which was carried off by the winds! Renowned Sunni Commentator Ibn Kathir said regarding Sura 21:81:

Solomon-1

“He had a mat made of wood on which he would place all the equipment of his kingship; horses, camels, tents and troops, then he would command the wind to carry it, and he would go underneath it and it would carry him aloft, shading him and protecting him from the heat, until it reached wherever he wanted to go in the land. Then it would come down and deposit his equipment and entourage…” (Tafsir Ibn Kathir (Abridged) (Surat Al-Isra’, Verse 39 To the end of Surat Al-Mu’minun), by a group of scholars under the supervision of Shaykh Safiur Rahman Al-Mubarakpuri [Darussalam Publishers & Distributors, Riyadh, Houston, New York, London, Lahore; First Edition: July 2000], Volume 6, pp. 476-477)

Are these supernatural forces or ancient astronauts shaping the civilization of human beings? We all are eagerly waiting for the disclosure. Hopefully the answers would be revealed to everyone in a near future.

Solomon-3
