HEAVEN'S NIGHT AND BRIGHTNESS???

[FARHAN_UDDIN]

Assalamualykum.

 Are you a more difficult creation or is the heaven? Allah constructed it.(79:27)

 He raised its ceiling and proportioned it.(79:28)

 And He darkened its night and extracted its brightness.(79:29)

 The above verses are talking about the creation of the Heaven. I'm confused with verse 79:29. Here Allah says that He has darkened the night of the Heaven and extracted its brightness. How is it possible? I mean, how can the Heaven have night and brightness? It is originally dark. The arabic word 'duhaha'' in the verse means daylight or morning brightness. how can the heaven have morning brightness? Please help me with this.

just wanted to make sure that the topic doesn't get buried by other topics.

As'salamu Alaikum dear brother Farhan,

The Noble Verses Say:

[079:027]  Are you more difficult to create than the heaven? He constructed it.
[079:028]  He raised its masses سمكها, and perfected it فسواها.
[079:029]  He made its night dark, and brightened its morn.

‏79:27 ءانتم اشد خلقا ام السماء بناها 
‏79:28 رفع سمكها فسواها
‏79:29 واغطش ليلها واخرج ضحاها

If you actually go to Google Translate, and type in سمكها, you'll get "Thick" for translation.  Google also writes "fish".  This is because samak means fish in Arabic.  But the Arabic Noble Word in the Noble Verse is sumk سمك for mass, or سمكها for "its mass or masses (could be both singular or plural)" .  Both words are written with S M K.  It's the vowels that make the word either samak or sumk.

Furthermore, using also Google Translate, if you translate the English word "thickness" to Arabic, you'll get samakah سماكة.  If you also look at the other Arabic meanings that are given in the link, you'll see كثافة.  This word means Density.


Now aside from the established Scientific facts that the Universe:

1-  Is balanced in its gravitational pulls.  This is also in the Holy Quran:

2-  Has different kinds and types of energies, and even unknown matter and energies.  This is also supported in the Holy Quran:

But this Noble Verse here clearly and perfectly states that the Universe isn't just an empty void or space.  This is also supported and mentioned in the Holy Quran:

And last and not least, as usual, I would like to invite the reader to visit the following section to see the Overwhelming Scientific Miracles in the Holy Quran:

I hope this helps, Insha'Allah.

Take care,
