Prophet Daud and Prophet Sulaiman Peace be upon them. Dhul Qarnayn was a king. Prophet Sulaiman Pbuh was also a King. 2️.Both were blessed with many great things to help them accomplish their tasks that was to spread the word of god. Dhul Qarnayn - Qs 18:84. Surely We established him in the land and granted him means of access to everything. Prophet Sulaiman Pbuh - Qs 27: 16 And Sulaiman was Dawood's heir and he said: O men! we have been taught the language of birds, and we have been given all things; most surely this is manifest grace. 3️. Both makes journeys far and wide. Dhul Qarnayn - Qs 18:85. So he followed a way, 89. Then he followed a way. 92.Then he followed a way. Prophet Sulaiman Pbuh - Qs 21:81, And (We made subservient) to Sulaiman the wind blowing violent, pursuing its course by his command to the lands which We had blessed, and We are knower of all things. 4️. Both were blessed with wisdom. Dhul Qarnayn - Qs 18:86, 87 & 88. Until, when he reached the setting of the sun, he found it [as if] setting in a spring of dark mud, and he found near it a people. Allah said, "O Dhul-Qarnayn, either you punish [them] or else adopt among them [a way of] goodness." Until when he reached the place where the sun set, he found it going down into a black sea, and found by it a people. We said: O Dhul qarnayn! either give them a chastisement or do them a benefit. He said: As to him who is unjust, we will chastise him, then shall he be returned to his Lord, and He will chastise him with an exemplary chastisement: And as for him who believes and does good, he shall have goodly reward, and We will speak to him an easy word of Our command. He said, "As for one who wrongs, we will punish him. Then he will be returned to his Lord, and He will punish him with a terrible punishment. But as for one who believes and does righteousness, he will have a reward of Paradise, and we will speak to him from our command with ease." Prophet Sulaiman Pbuh - Qs 21:78 & 79. And Daud and Sulaiman when they gave judgment concerning the field when the people's sheep pastured therein by night, and We were bearers of witness to their judgment. So We made Sulaiman to understand it; and to each one We gave wisdom and knowledge; and We made the mountains, and the birds to celebrate Our praise with Daud; and We were the doers. 5️. Both were able to understand many languages. Polyglot or multi linguistics is an asset for travellers. Dhul Qarnayn Qs.18:93. Until when he reached (a place) between the two mountains, he found on that side of them a people who could hardly understand a word. *Qs.14:4. And We did not send any messenger except [speaking] in the language of his people to state clearly for them, and Allah sends astray [thereby] whom He wills and guides whom He wills. And He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise. Prophet Sulaiman Pbuh - Qs 27:16 And Sulaiman was Daud's heir, and he said: O men! we have been taught the language of birds, and we have been given all things; most surely this is manifest grace. 6️. And here’s the best part. They were both given the technology to manipulate both iron and copper! Dhul Qarnayn - Qs 18:96 Bring me blocks of iron; until when he had filled up the space between the two mountain sides, he said: Blow, until when he had made it (as) fire, he said: Bring me molten copper which I may pour over it. Prophet Sulaiman pbuh - Qs 34:10, 11 & 12. And certainly We gave to Daud (Sulaiman’s father) excellence from Us: O mountains! sing praises with him, and the birds; and We made the iron pliant to him, Saying: Make ample (coats of mail), and assign a time to the making of coats of mail and do good; surely I am Seeing what you do. And (We made) the wind (subservient) to Sulaiman, 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 out for him, and of the jinn there were those who worked before him by the command of his Lord; and whoever turned aside from Our command from among them, We made him taste of the punishment of burning. 7️. And both refused to accept gifts. Dhul Qarnayn - Qs.18:95, They said: O Dhul Qarnayn! surely Gog and Magog make mischief in the land. Shall we then pay you a tribute on condition that you should raise a barrier between us and them Prophet Sulaiman Pbuh - Qs.27:36, So when he came to Sulaiman, he said: What! will you help me with wealth? But what Allah has given me is better than what He has given you. Nay, you are exultant because of your present; Allah knows best. And May Allah guide us to his straight path.

Where did he get the iron and copper from? How did they melt it? SubhanAllah
