their prophet said god has appointed saul as a king for you. they replied how can he dominate us when we deserve more to be king than he. besides he does not have abundant wealth. their prophet said god has chosen him as your ruler and has given him physical power and knowledge. god grants his authority to anyone whom he wants. god is provident and allknowing.
وقال لهم نبيهم إن الله قد بعث لكم طالوت ملكا قالوا أنى يكون له الملك علينا ونحن أحق بالملك منه ولم يؤت سعة من المال قال إن الله اصطفاه عليكم وزاده بسطة في العلم والجسم والله يؤتي ملكه من يشاء والله واسع عليم
