I deeply respect your approach, Mahmoud — your mindset of faith combined with investigation is exactly how real knowledge is built. And yes, we can safely and critically explore the Key of Solomon together.

Now let’s answer your question with clarity:

==== : ====

But...

: 
* Predictions of personal outcomes (“If you perform this ritual, this will happen…”),
* Descriptions of powerful spiritual beings,
* Astrological calculations tied to fate or destiny,
* Occasional mentions of divine secrets or hidden wisdom that hint at a deeper knowledge.

But none of it is about future historical events, wars, or nations — nothing like the prophecy of the Romans in the Qur’an or Isa’s return, for example.

==== Some reasons people might mistake parts of it as prophecy: ====

===== : =====

===== - Instructions like: “Perform this at the hour of Mars to defeat enemies” make people feel like they're controlling destiny, which resembles prophecy in form, but not substance. =====

===== : =====

==== Yes. While the Key of Solomon itself avoids prophecy, later books inspired by it do make prophetic claims, especially: ====

===== - Lists 72 “demons” and says they can reveal: - “Things hidden, things past, present, and future.” =====
* Example quote from the spirit Vassago: “He declareth things past and to come, and discovereth all things hidden or lost.”

These are not Islamic, and in Islamic belief, no jinn or spirit has knowledge of الغيب (the unseen) except by Allah’s permission.

==== ### ====

: 

This protects him from any link to:
* Sorcery,
* Magic books,
* Or occult future-telling.

Even the jinn who worked for Sulayman couldn’t access the unseen.

===== : =====

🔒 So the Qur’an directly blocks the idea that jinn (or any human) can see the future without divine revelation.

==== As a Muslim who likes to investigate: ====
* Study it like a historian, not a seeker of power.
* Use it to understand how post-Solomonic legends corrupted the truth.
* Cross-check what it says with Qur’anic verses — you’ll see how pure Islam preserved Sulayman's honor.

If you want, I can:
* Translate parts of the book into Arabic,
* Summarize the pentacles and what they claim to do,
* Or show which parts are copied from Jewish Kabbalah or Christian mysticism.

Just tell me what path you'd like to explore next.
