And changed its appearance a little. When the queen reached the court, Hazrat Sulaiman (peace be upon him) asked: Is your throne like this? The queen said: As if it is the same. Hazrat Sulaiman (peace be upon him) built a palace and built a large tank in its courtyard and filled it with water and laid a beautiful glass floor on top of it. The onlookers felt that water was flowing in the courtyard. When Queen Saba reached the courtyard, seeing the water, she wrapped a cloth around her leg to enter it. Hazrat Sulaiman (peace be upon him) said: There is no need for it, because the entire courtyard is made of beautiful glass. This was a severe blow to the Queen’s intellect.

Some Quranic Ayah Related to Article: -

And they followed [instead] what the devils had recited during the reign of Sulaiman. It was not Sulaiman who disbelieved, but the devils disbelieved, teaching people magic and that which was revealed to the two angels at Babylon, Harut and Marut. But the two angels do not teach anyone unless they say, “We are a trial, so do not disbelieve [by practicing magic].” And [yet] they learn from them that by which they cause separation between a man and his wife. But they do not harm anyone through it except by permission of Allah. And the people learn what harms them and does not benefit them. But the Children of Israel certainly knew that whoever purchased the magic would not have in the Hereafter any share. And wretched is that for which they sold themselves, if they only knew.
