quran:27:35

But indeed, I will send to them a gift and see with what ˹reply˺ the messengers will return."  

Now I will send them a gift and wait to see with what ˹response˺ the envoys return’, in the way of accepting the gift or rejecting it. If it be a king ˹to whom we have sent it˺, he will accept it; but if it be a prophet, he will reject it. Thus, she sent male and female servants, one thousand in total, together with five hundred bricks of gold, a crown studded with jewels, and musk, ambergris and other things with an envoy carrying a letter. The hoopoe thus hurried back to bring the news to Solomon, who ordered bricks of gold and silver to be made and laid out across a ˹vast˺ square the distance of nine parasangs from his seat and for a towering wall of gold and silver to be constructed around it, and for the most splendid creatures of the land and the sea, together with the children of the jinn, to be brought to line the right and left sides of the square.
القرآن:٢٧:٣٥

وَإِنِّي مُرْسِلَةٌ إِلَيْهِمْ بِهَدِيَّةٍ فَنَاظِرَةٌ بِمَ يَرْجِعُ الْمُرْسَلُونَ  

{وإني مرسلة إليهم بهدية فناظرة بم يرجع المرسلون} من قبول الهدية أو ردها إن كان ملكاً قبلها أو نبياً لم يقبلها فأرسلت خدماً ذكوراً وإناثاً ألفاً بالسوية وخمسمائة لبنة من الذهب وتاجاً مكللا بالجواهر ومسكاً وعنبراً وغير ذلك مع رسول بكتاب فأسرع الهدهد إلى سليمان يخبره الخبر فأمر أن تضرب لبنات الذهب والفضة وأن تبسط من موضعه إلى تسعة فراسخ ميداناً وأن يبنوا حوله حائطاً مشرفاً من الذهب والفضة وأن يؤتي بأحسن دواب البر والبحر مع أولاد الجن عن يمين الميدان وشماله.
