Sura 79
Aya 29
29
وَأَغطَشَ لَيلَها وَأَخرَجَ ضُحاها

Ali Unal

And He obscured its night and brought out its light of day.1
  • In the beginning, the heaven was either in darkness, or there was no light-emitting object in it. So after fashioning the heaven, God placed light-emitting objects in it, such as the sun and the other stars, and He removed its darkness. This verse also means that He has made some celestial objects, including the earth, which have both darkness (night) and light (day), alternately.
