Secrets Of Quran Miracles

[القلب الحزين]

Shining Lamp

The holy verse:

God be he exalted says: (And We have made (therein) a shining lamp (sun), and We have sent down from the rainy clouds abundant water.) [Surat An-Naba, verse: 13, 14].

The explanation of the verse:

The holy verses talk about some of Gods' graces such as the earth that is settled for us, the mountains as pegs to fix the earth, the grace of the night and day and He be exalted also talked about an important grace for living on earth which is the sun and He called it the shining lamp.

The commentators say: the lamp means: the sun, we have made means: we created, shining means: glowing and the glow combines both light and heat.

The scientific fact:

Scientists have found that the sun is one of the stars in the universe and it is a lamp that works with nuclear fuel, as the hydrogen reacts and its atoms merge with each other and produce helium atoms that transmit heat and energy.

The scientists say that the sun produces flames; its length reaches hundreds of thousands of kilometers and it produces large amounts of heat and energy. The sun burns more than 4 million tons of substance per second, all of it turns into heat and energy and radiation of all kinds.

The point of inimitability:

From the previous verses and through the scientific facts, we see that the Quran called the sun: the lamp and this naming is scientifically true because the sun already does the work of a bright lamp, and this is one of the signs of the miraculous nature of the Quran and that it is a book sent down by Almighty God.
