فِي قَوْلِهِ ﷻ {وَأَلْقَيْنَا عَلَى كُرْسِيِّهِ جَسَدًا} [ص 34] قَالَ هُوَ الشَّيْطَانُ الَّذِي كَانَ عَلَى كُرْسِيِّهِ يَقْضِي بَيْنَ النَّاسِ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا وَكَانَ لِسُلَيْمَانَ جَارِيَةٌ يُقَالَ لَهَا جَرَادَةُ وَكَانَ بَيْنَ بَعْضِ أَهْلِهَا وَبَيْنَ قَوْمِهِ خُصُومَةٌ فَقَضَى بَيْنَهُمْ بِالْحَقِّ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ وَدَّ أَنَّ الْحَقَّ لِأَهْلِهَا فَأَوْحَى اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِ أَنَّهُ سَيُصِيبُكَ بَلَاءٌ وَكَانَ لَا يَدْرِي يَأْتِيهِ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ أَوْ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ
