00:17The water is very clear
00:19I can hint at Mal Al-Qai from here
00:22Thus, the water at the port of Adom
00:25Why?
00:26These two mountains, one on the right and one on the left.
00:28They provide natural protection for the port from wind and waves.
00:33Praise God
00:34The first mountain is called Shamsan
00:36The other is called Jabal al-Muzraqb
00:39Can I get here?
00:41Of course not
00:42We want to arrive quickly so we can finish our work.
00:45Then I will show you the city's landmarks

01:45What an old building
01:47It is the Aban Mosque
01:49It was built by the third of the Rightly Guided Caliphs.
01:51Uthman ibn Affan, may God be pleased with him
01:54Yemen is so ancient
01:57Yemen has a long history
01:59Before Islam and also before Christianity
02:01Many stories took place there.
02:04Among them is the story of Queen Bilqis
02:06The story of the Marib Dam
02:08What is the story of the Marib Dam?
02:10I don't know her either.
02:12I heard it from the owner of the sea years ago.
02:15I learned a lot from her
02:17You made us eager for that story
02:20Okay, I'll tell you.
02:22The story took place after the time of Jesus, peace be upon him.
02:26Before the mission of the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him
02:30In a short time
02:31Scholars called it the period.
02:34Where the king of Sheba was
02:35Important people sit on the edge of his palace
02:40King Aidarus
02:42The sandstorm intensifies
02:45Wouldn't it be more appropriate to enter the closed throne room?
02:49How depressed I feel, Cornus
02:51What makes you feel depressed, my lord?
02:55Don't you see the hateful yellow color spreading around us in every spot?
02:59It's about to rain.
03:02What's the point? The rain falls on the mountains around us, flows down to us in torrents, and then disappears into the barren desert.
03:10Will that desert never be quenched?
03:13We must find a way to prevent floodwaters from being wasted every year in the desert.
03:17Why doesn't my master think about going on a hunting trip?
03:21It might relieve some of your depression
03:24No problem, I'll prepare the supplies for tomorrow's trip.
03:35I suggest, my lord, that we return to the palace.
03:38But we haven't believed anything yet.
03:40The provisions we have with us, my lord, will barely suffice for the return journey.
03:44Why didn't you plan ahead and bring more food and drinks?
03:48I brought it, my lord
03:50But we have been traveling for ten days now.
03:54Does the desert want to challenge me?
03:57I must find a way to defeat her.
03:59I want to erase that awful yellow color
04:02As you wish, my lord
04:04I want to meet with the chief engineer as soon as I return from the trip.
04:20Look with me, my lord
04:22I don't understand anything, Chief Engineer, from your complex drawings and calculations.
04:27It's very simple
04:29We will build a dam to hold back the water in the valleys during the rainy season.
04:33We use it throughout the year
04:35great
04:37The important thing is to complete the dam's construction quickly.
04:40Forgive me, my lord
04:42This is impossible
04:43What? Did she obey my orders?
04:45Rather, I will tell you the scientific truth.
04:47This construction will take decades.
04:51Decades?
04:52And perhaps hundreds
04:54We will most likely not be among the people of this world when the building is finished.
04:58So what's the point?
05:00The benefit will extend to our descendants.
05:02And our great-grandchildren
05:04The color green will be dominant on that land.
05:08Agreed
05:09Start working immediately
05:31Hundreds of years have already passed.
05:33The world has changed in it
05:35And the good king, the one who conceived the idea of building the Marib Dam, passed away.
05:39And others came to enjoy the bounty of the years
05:48Look at the fruit of our labor
05:50Tomorrow, King Maziqaa will become even richer.
05:52Meanwhile, we are becoming increasingly hungry and poor.
05:55Don't utter the word "muziqaa".
05:57Otherwise we'll go to jail
05:59Everyone knows that the king tears two silk robes every day.
06:03So that he would not wear something else.
06:05Why did you tear this garment that you haven't even used yet?
06:10What is this? How dare you question the king?
06:12I am the only one here asking the questions
06:15My dear husband
06:17In their dialect, people call you Maziqaa.
06:20Because of the large number of clothes that were torn
06:23Who are these traitors? Show them to me immediately.
06:26Why don't they shut their mouths and stop this strange habit?
06:31I returned to ask questions
06:33I will pass by your prison
06:34Ah, you're imprisoning your kind, funny wife!
06:38Who only wants what's best for you
06:41I will imprison my father and mother if they show me up
06:44Who prepares the delicious food you love?
06:48I have dozens of circumcisions
06:50And tomorrow I will gather the harvest in Sheba
06:53And take hundreds of pure people from all countries of the world
06:56He is the one who prepares your beautiful clothes
06:59I will buy concubines and slaves to serve me.
07:14Jamila, haven't you gotten dressed yet?
07:18Forgive me, Father, I don't want to go to this party.
07:21How could we miss the King's party, my daughter?
07:24This is not permissible.
07:25The invitation of kings is never refused
07:27Then it's the harvest party
07:29Okay, I'll go and pledge my loyalty and obedience.
07:33But please don't ask me to smile and chat with them.
07:38How foolish of you! Your attendance at this party is an opportunity every girl in Sheba dreams of.
07:45I don't understand, Dad, what do you mean?
07:48I mean Prince Malik, the king's youngest son and the closest to his heart, who is not yet married.
07:55I still don't understand what my connection is to Prince Malik?
07:59How can I explain this to her? Try to get his attention; perhaps you'll be lucky enough to receive a marriage proposal.
08:08No, Father, these are unjust people. Do you want me to marry the foolish son of Maziqah?
08:15Lower your voice and shut up completely; you will ruin your father Bahloul the minister's future.
08:43The bald man went to the barber and asked him to cut his hair.
08:53Very funny
08:56He's bald and cutting his hair
09:05This is the funniest joke I've ever heard. Bless your tongue, Mr. Prince.
09:12I have lost my lightheartedness and sense of humor.
09:19Isn't that so?
09:21Certainly, my lord, he is bald and cuts his hair
09:29Why aren't you laughing, Chief Engineer?
09:33Are they scholars, O Prince?
09:37Our operator is always engaged with their ideas and theories
09:40Or perhaps he didn't like the joke.
09:43I've gotten used to going to bed early.
09:48May I ask your permission, my lord?
09:50Please, go ahead, Chief Engineer
09:54It was impolite of him to leave the king's assembly before my master stood up.
10:01He asked for permission because he needed to sleep.
10:04Tell us, Prince Malik, about your recent trip
10:07I was riding my horse among the mountains
10:10And then four highwaymen surrounded me
10:14I quickly drew my sword and swung it around, reaping the heads of the four.
10:20four
10:22The four
10:25What a joke
10:28What are you laughing at?
10:31Are you mocking Prince Malik's courage?
10:33God forbid, my Lord
10:36Nini
10:36Speak up or I'll cut off your head.
10:40Have mercy, my Lord
10:42I was laughing at the previous joke.
10:45He's bald and cutting his hair
10:48Except it is indeed a new masterpiece
10:53The chief engineer survived
10:56By sleeping early
11:04How are you, Othman, my friend?
11:08I'm actually feeling incredibly bored.
11:10Why not try zero?
11:12Where am I traveling to? The whole earth around us is full of gardens and ripe fruit trees.
11:18You're right
11:19Whenever I had enough supplies for zero, I found that I didn't need them.
11:24Something boring
11:26As long as you both feel bored and empty
11:30Back to work
11:32What kind of work, Mr. Aref?
11:35Agriculture
11:36Have you forgotten?
11:38I now work in weapons manufacturing.
11:40I have swords made of pure gold and inlaid with precious stones.
11:44And you, Zahran
11:46My nails can no longer withstand the hard work
11:50Then I am busy making wine
11:52The demand for vintage wines is increasing every day.
11:57O God, remove Your wrath and anger from us
12:03The bald man went to the barber
12:06He asked him to cut his hair
12:11May God make you laugh, Your Highness
12:14What an ingenious joke!
12:17I can't stop myself from laughing
12:23Father, I present to you my new friends
12:27Osman is an arms dealer
12:29great
12:30We will rely on you to supply the army with what it needs.
12:34From shields and sheaths and so on
12:38This is a great honor, my lord.
12:40As for Zahran, he is the best at making aged wines.
12:45So we imprison him here in the palace.
12:48Let him provide us with what we need
12:50Your obedient servant, at your command, my master
12:54Why are you daydreaming, Chief Engineer?
12:57What's on your mind?
12:58It preoccupies me, my Lord
13:00This change that occurred in the city
13:03You have the right to be proud of him
13:05You are the one who completed the construction of the dam.
13:07I wish I hadn't completed it, and I wish I hadn't become an engineer.
13:12Why, wise one?
13:14I thought you were proud of the dam.
13:16The dam was a blessing
13:18But it was a blessing that held within it
13:22A thousand armed evils
13:25Make way, wise one, we don't understand your words.
13:28The blessing of the dam has made us forget the true source of blessings.
13:32People know that the gift of divine grace is good and never fails.
13:39But they are unaware that this beauty can only be preserved through gratitude to God.
13:46Have you finished your sermon?
13:48Did you want us to remain poor?
13:51I wish we had remained poor and patient
13:55This is much better than ungrateful rich people.
14:00Is this too much?
14:02We have forgotten how to thank God.
14:05Satan's suspicions about us have proven true.
14:09And we forgot to thank God
14:10You're exaggerating, Chief Engineer
14:13Drink your cup and put an end to your worries.
14:16What do you think, my lord, about changing the location and meeting in the other garden to the right of the palace?
14:22This is better. I'm bored with this park.
14:33In the name of God, the most gracious, the most merciful
14:37There was a sign in the dwelling place of Sheba
14:41Two gardens, one on the right and one on the left.
14:44Eat from the provision of your Lord
14:47And give thanks to Him for a good land and a forgiving Lord.
14:50God Almighty has spoken the truth.
14:53Allah is great
14:57Allah is great
15:00There is no god but Allah
15:04Maghrib Adhan
15:06Let's go to prayer
15:07What happened to the people of Ma'rab?
15:09Did God punish them for their extravagance?
15:12This is a time for prayer, not for talk.
15:15We will pray first, then we will continue our story later, God willing.
