It is narrated that his camp was one hundred farsakh by one hundred: twenty-five for the jinn, twenty-five for humans, twenty-five for birds, and twenty-five for wild animals. He had a thousand houses made of glass on wood, in which there were three hundred wives. And seven hundred detachments, and the jinn had woven for him a carpet of gold and silk, one farsakh by one farsakh. His pulpit was placed in the middle of it, and it was made of gold, where he would sit surrounded by six hundred thousand chairs of gold and silver. The prophets would sit on the gold chairs and the scholars on the silver chairs, and around them were the people, and around the people were the jinn and the devils. The birds would shade him with their wings so that the sun would not fall upon him, and the wind of the morning would lift the carpet, carrying it a month’s journey. It is narrated that he would command the fierce wind to carry him, and he would command the gentle wind to guide him. Then Allah revealed to him while he was moving between the heaven and the earth: 'Indeed, I have increased your kingdom; no one speaks a word except that the wind carries it to your hearing.' It is said that he passed by a farmer and said: 'Indeed, the family of David has been given a great kingdom.' The wind carried this to his ear, so he descended and walked to the farmer and said: 'I have come to you so that you do not wish for what you cannot attain.' Then he said: 'One glorification that Allah accepts is better than what the family of David has been given, as they are distributed, with the first of them held back from the last of them.' This means: the leaders of the army stop until the followers catch up with them, so that they are gathered together and none of them is left behind, due to the great multitude.
