Ohh!  This is a very good movie sis.  I watched the first 32.09 minutes.  Need to eat dinner now and then after my Isha salat I'll go to sleep.  Will continue tomorrow, InshAllah, from the exact point I left.  

I have to say, there are many things that have been detailed in this movie are not in the Quran .. like the way Prophethood came upon Solomon and how exactly he handled the various issues troubling the people.   But there are similarities with the Quran as well.  Uptil now it hasn't shown about the queen of sheba and the hoopoe (bird) acting as the message carrier between her and Solomon's kingdom as given in the Quran.  However, there's lot more to watch in the movie, so let's see how much compatibility it has with the Quran.

However, it's a wonderful production.  Superb acting & direction, very good and respectful presentation (unlike Western depictions of history that are always filled with some bit of vulgarity and of course plenty of unfounded lies) and excellent scenery.  It's apparently Iranian scenery and more picturesque than Palestine where Solomon actually lived.  

Will give more feedback after I finish watching, InshAllah.
Thanks for putting it up sis.  Very interesting one.
