The boastful men of power and wealth in this material world, will forget everything when comes to power, except himself. He ascribes all that he has to his merit and knowledge, apart from God! An example of this was QURÄN = BIBLICAL KORAH, who was contemporary to Moses, and against him too! We read thus in QURÄNِS 28:76:ِ
``QURÄN was among the people of Moses who acted insolently towards the Arch prophet of God! Such were the treasures that we had bestowed on him that their keys were to be carried by a body of strong men.''
His people adviced him saying:ِ ``Exalt not, because Allah will not love those who exalt....He said:ِ ``This has been given to me because of a knowledge which is with me! Then We caused the earth to swallow him up and his house.... and no one helped him.''
Vontrary to korah, was king solomon. When he sa that his companions were endowed with cuch that wonderful knowledge and merit he ascribed it to Allah and said:- This is of the Grace of my Lord, so as to examine me whether I giv thanks or I blaspheme.
Solomon was thankful to God that his companions were endowed with such power that they instantly brought the heavy throne through such a long distance, without letting the queen to know it. He was thankful to God while he knew well that his thankfulness will not benefit God aught, because He is high above all needs.
