Taboot-e-Sakina is a box made of boxwood that was revealed to Hazrat Adam (A.S) and remained with him until the last days of his worldly life. The box held belongings of the Prophets who were sent by Allah Almighty, including the Lauh-e-Qurani, an AASA that belonged to Hazrat Musa (A.S), the original version of the Holy book Tauraat, planks that were bestowed upon Hazrat Musa (A.S) at Koh-e-Sina, along with a special utensil that was used for bringing Man-o-Salva (foods from the heaven) . Whenever there was any difference of opinion among the Bani Israel, they would seek advice from the box. The glad-tiding of the victory would be heard from Taboot-e-Sakina. The Bani Israel used to keep this box with them during their supplications by virtue of which supplications would accept and due to its blessings, afflictions, and calamities would be averted.

According to popular belief, the Taboot-e-Sakina was given special leverage due to God’s will. It is not that if the Taboot was given a sacred status so all taboots are to be worshiped, but the Taboot-e-Sakina was given special leverage due to God’s will. The Israelis used Taboot-e-Sakina as their qiblah. When the Taboot-e-Sakina was in Hazrat Dawood (A.S)’s custody, he decided to make a castle, a temple to protect it and the Prophets’ assets. The temple took so much time that it could not be completed during Hazrat Dawood (A.S)’s life. The temple completed in the era of Hazrat Sulemani (A.S) and was named the Haikal-e-Sulemani.

In summary, Taboot-e-Sakina is a box made of boxwood that was revealed to Hazrat Adam (A.S) and held belongings of the Prophets who were sent by Allah Almighty. It was given special leverage due to God’s will and was used by the Bani Israel during their supplications. The Israelis used Taboot-e-Sakina as their qiblah, and it was kept secure in the Haikal-e-Sulemani temple.
