Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
Sulayman the Son of DawudAllah tells us that he gave Sulayman to Dawud as a Prophet, as He says elsewhere:وَوَرِثَ سُلَيْمَـنُ دَاوُودَ(And Sulayman inherited Dawud) (27:1). meaning, he inherited prophethood from him. Dawud had other sons besides Sulayman, for he had one hundred free wives.
