Is it permissible to interpret "the body" in the story of the temptation of Prophet Sulaiman (peace be upon him) as the half-man mentioned in Sahih Al-Bukhari? And is it permissible to support this interpretation with the example of the temptation of the Prophet (peace be upon him) when he forgot to say "in shaa Allah" (if Allah wills) in the story of the People of the Cave?

A summary: The exegetes differed in interpreting the "body" that was cast onto Solomon's throne. Some of the predecessors held that it was a devil, while others interpreted it as referring to Solomon's statement when he did not make an exception for Allah's will in his oath to circumambulate his wives. Whatever the interpretation, the story encourages making exceptions in matters, entrusting affairs to Allah, and showing proper respect to Him by mentioning His will in every action.
