SALAAM TO EVERY ONE! edit

Where on earth did you people get this quote from?;The legend of the Sulaiman mountain range is east of Quetta (Pakistan), overlooking the plain of the Indus river. One of the highest peaks (11,085 feet) is called Takht-i Sulaiman, meaning Solomon's Throne. Ibn Battuta names it Koh-i Sulaiman. Of this it is related, that the Prophet of God, Hazrat Sulaiman climbed this mountain and looked out over the land of South Asia, which was then covered with darkness - but he turned back without descending into this new frontier, and left only the mountain which is named after him. (From Ibn Battuta). This is most seriously a tale of fiction and not fact because ALLAH mentions in the quran that ALLAH had given Sulaiman a.s the mightiest of kingdoms which included the whole world,which means everything inside it even the jinns and inns! (humans) To the nearest meaning. So how or why wouldnt he be able to descend in to this new frontier afterall he rules it doesnt he? Why would south asia be covered in darkness in his rule? I dont think this is accurate and it goes against QURAN. Even if it was in darkness surely he would have changed that like he changed sheba by the power and wisdom ALLAH had given him. Please enlightne me on this matter and remove that article from the wiki page. ASk y —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.169.127.148 (talk) 18:25, 29 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Anything written by Ibn Battuta is of interest to millions of readers, while your speculations of how God ought to think and behave are utterly trivial. I suspect you've missed the gist of the story (fictional or not), which appears to explain why Solomon returned to Jerusalem (rather than becoming a king in India), and how his name appeared in association with this mountain range. Have you read the Quran? How does it tell the story? I don't recall anything at all in it about this part of the world. But Solomon built his temple in Jerusalem; he must have had his reasons. If it were up to me, I'd have chosen Paris -- and had the Himalayas named after me. 172.56.27.174 (talk) 02:43, 11 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

Loai Saar Naikan edit

I don't know which is correct Loai Saar Naikan or the Looi sarnaikaan that was in the article before my edit, but a Google search seems to show that Looi sarnaikaan only occurs in reflexes of this page and Loai Saar Naikan on the reference page cited. Of course, since it's not in the range that the article is about, maybe it should be deleted anyway! ☸ Moilleadóir 02:57, 9 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

Map edit

That's a very nice map, and it shows lots of mountains, but I couldn't find "Sulaiman" on it anywhere! 172.56.26.4 (talk) 01:50, 11 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

You're right. It doesn't help much, it's just a physical map of Afghanistan, without the Sulaiman Mountains labeled. Would anyone with knowledge of the extent of these mountains care to make us a map, or direct us to an existing map? -kotra (talk) 05:56, 10 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
