Su Profeta les dijo: “Dios os ha enviado a Saúl para que sea vuestro rey”. Exclamaron: “¿Por qué será él nuestro rey, si nosotros tenemos más derecho que él y ni siquiera es rico?” Dijo: “Dios lo ha elegido para vosotros y le ha dotado de gran capacidad intelectual y física”. Dios concede el reino a quien Él quiere, porque Dios es Vasto, todo lo sabe.
