Prophet Sulayman was marching with his huge army when a tiny ant called out: “O ants! Enter your dwellings lest Solomon and his armies crush you, unperceiving” (Quran 27:18). Sulayman heard her and smiled. He did not laugh at the ant – he stopped and thanked Allah for his gifts (Quran 27:19).
Talk about it: Who do you say thank you to today? How can we be careful with small creatures?
