It is said that this is a hud-hud bird that plays a role in the love story of Sulaiman and queen of Balqis.
"The story states that Prophet Sulaiman once fell in love with a queen of the land of Saba, named queen of Balqis until finally became his wife.
He sent letters several times to the queen of Balqis as the beginning of their introduction, through a bird named hud-hud and a hud-hud bird also introducing them to each other".
