And when they came across a valley of ants, an ant warned, “O ants! Go quickly into your homes so Solomon and his armies do not crush you, unknowingly."

So Solomon smiled in amusement at her words, and prayed, “My Lord! Inspire me to ˹always˺ be thankful for Your favours which You have blessed me and my parents with, and to do good deeds that please you. Admit me, by Your mercy, into ˹the company of˺ Your righteous servants.”

Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran, 27:19-20

It appears that, from my limited understanding of the Quran, Allah(SWT) identifies the ant as female. I thought that was interesting and unusual, so I did a quick google search about ants and discovered that the vast majority of ants are indeed female. Can anybody confirm this?
