Saba Religion

[Ozymandias]

Wouldn't the Sabeans have practiced a form of Judaism (due to the Queen of Sheba's relationship with Solomon), rather than worship Baal?

I think it's a bit silly to assume that since sheba visited solomon once that the saba were jews.

[Ozymandias]

I think it says in the Koran that she became muslim (Jewish?) when she went there.

[Megas Methuselah]

So maybe she had. Does it also mean her kingdom(Queendom?) as a whole converted too? Not likely.

[lobf]

If she became muslim then she travelled into the future because muhammed wasn't born until the 600s or thereabouts.

[Megas Methuselah]

I think the Koran is actually referring to Judaism...

Despite what the bible may or may not say about the Queen of Sheba, who may or may not be a Sabaean (although there is scanty evidence for female rule in Saba), the Sabaeans practiced a polytheistic religion with the god Almaqah being the most important by a fairly large margin. There are a few thousand inscriptions written by the Sabaeans themselves over the span of several hundred years that attest to it.
