Moon Has Its Own Light? or reflected light ?

It was believed by earlier civilizations that the moon emanates its own light. Science now tells us that the light of the moon is reflected light. However this fact was mentioned in the Quran 1,400 years ago in the following verse:
"Blessed is He Who made Constellations in the skies, And placed therein a Lamp And a Moon giving light." [Al-Quran 25:61]
*The Arabic word for the sun in the Quran, is shams. It is referred to as siraaj, which means a ‘torch’ or as wahhaaj which means ‘a blazing lamp’ or as diya which means ‘shining glory’. All three descriptions are appropriate to the sun, since it generates intense heat and light by its internal combustion. The Arabic word for the moon is qamar and it is described in the Quran as muneer, which is a body that gives nur i.e. light. Again, the Quranic description matches perfectly with the true nature of the moon, which does not give off light itself and is an inert body that reflects the light of the sun. Not once in the Quran, is the moon mentioned as siraajwahhaaj or diya or the sun as nur or muneer. This implies that the Quran recognizes the difference between the nature of sunlight and moonlight.*
Consider the following verses related to the nature of light from the sun and the moon: "It is He who made the sun To be a shining glory And the moon to be a light (Of beauty)." [Al-Quran 10:5]
"See ye not How Allah has created The seven heavens One above another, "And made the moon A light in their midst, and made the sun As a (Glorious) Lamp?" [Al-Quran 71:15-16]

 91:1 CONSIDER the sun and its radiant brightness, (2) and the moon as it reflects the sun!1 (3) Consider the day as it reveals the world,2 (4) and the night as it veils it darkly!
  1 Lit., "as it follows it (talaha)", i.e., the sun. According to the great philologist Al-Farra, who lived in the second century after the hijrah, "the meaning is that the moon derives its light from the sun" (quoted by Razi). This is also Raghib's interpretation of the above phrase.( muhammad asad )

 (The word “talaha” (it follows it)(91:2), in the context of “book”, it means “read” or “recite” (e.g. verse 2:44 “while you recite (tatluna) the Book”). According to the context, the moon follows / reads / recites the sun’s brightness (91:2). It implies that the light of the moon is a reflected light; the moon does not have its own light, because the moon “reads” the light / brightness of the sun (91:1-2). Similarly, people who is in darkness (fig. the moon), they may be enlightened by the enlightening Book (fig. the sun) (14:1, 22:8))(So, the Qur’an is in accordance with science) by amin

Another false propaganda. The Qur'an says: "God is the One who made the sun a shine and the moon a light" (Qur'an 10:5). 

Commenting on this, Dr. Bucaille says: "Whereas the Bible calls the sun and moon 'lights', and merely adds to one the adjective 'greater' and to the other 'lesser', the Qur'an ascribes differences other than that of dimension to each respectively" (The Bible, the Qur'an and Science, p. 156). 

Similarly, the Qur'an says: "Blessed is the One Who placed the constellations in heaven and placedtherein a lamp and a moon giving light" (Qur'an 25:61). 

Here again, the difference between the sun and the moon is noted. The sun is called a lamp, and the moon is called an object giving light. 

Again in the Qur'an God says that He "made the moon a light" and "made the sun a lamp" (Qur'an 71:15-16). 
Furthermore, God calls the sun a "blazing lamp" (Qur'an 78:12-13). This term which is used for the sun is never used for the moon in the Qur'an. 


In all of these verses, God expresses the notion that the sun and the moon are "not absolutely identical lights" (The Bible, the Qur'an and Science, p. 156). 
Dr. Bucaille draws his conclusions from what he found in the Qur'an about the sun and the moon:"What is interesting to note here is the sober quality of the comparisons, and the absence in the text of the Qur'an of any elements of comparison that might have prevailed at the time and which in our day would appear as phantasmagorial" (The Bible, the Qur'an and Science, p 157). 

You may read the following parable stated in the Quran to know the difference between light and lamp. 

“Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The parable of His Light is as if there were a Niche and within it a lamp: the Lamp enclosed in Glass: the glass as it were a brilliant star: lit from a blessed Tree an Olive neither of the East nor of the West whose Oil is well-nigh luminous though fire scarce touched it: Light upon Light! Allah doth guide whom He will to His Light. Allah doth set forth Parables for men: and Allah doth know all things.” (by assufah )


The Arabic word for Sun is ‘Shams’. It's always described either as Siraj meaning a torch, or Wahaj meaning a blazing lamp, or Diya – ‘meaning a shining glory’. The Moon - the Arabic word is Qamar. It's always described as Munir, meaning borrowed light or Noor, which is a reflection of light.”

2:257
He bringeth them out of darkness into light
4:174
We have sent down unto you a clear light
5:15 
There hath come to you from God a (new) light
5:44
We did reveal the Torah, wherein is guidance and a light

 In all these verses we see that “light” is referred to as guidance. The guidance, which is reflected by Allah (SWT) on human beings. Nowhere in the entire Quran is “munir” or “noor” used for something that emanates light or something that has its own light.( by joseph islam )

Muhammad Asad the famous translator and commentator explains:

“He is is who has made the sun a [source of] radiant light and the moon a light [reflected]” (Quran10:5)

Footnote #10

“The nouns diya and nur are often interchangeable, inasmuch as both denote “light”; but many philologists are of the opinion that the term diya (or daw) has a more intensive connotation, and is used to describe “a light which subsists by itself, as that of the sun and fire” – that is , a source of light- while nur signifies “a light that subsists by some other thing” (Lane V, 1809, of the authority of Taj al-Arus): in other words, light due to an extraneous source or – as in the case of the moon – reflected light”

*Still if one doesn’t agree I want to know why is there not one place in the Holy Quran where moonlight is described as Siraj meaning a torch, or Wahaj meaning a blazing lamp, or Diya – ‘meaning a shining glory’??

Why is there not a single place where sunlight is described as “munir” or “ noor”??*


The reason is that the author of the Quran who is the All-Knowing Creator of this universe knows the difference between the two lights.

نور (noor): نy بي (bayyan) reveal, reflect.

إستنار به (istanaara bihi): د شعاعة y إستم (istamadda shu'aaa'uh) was supplied by its light.

انار المكان (anaara al-makaan): وضع فيه النور (wada'aa feehi al-noor) Put light into it, or reflected light off of it.

} ا} ت الشجرو انارت ايضا . ورy ن (nawwarat al-shajarah wa anaarat aydan): اخرجت نورها (akhrajat nooraha) The plant reflected the light off of itself, or it showed the light off of itself. However, plants, as we know, are not a source of light.

انار النبت (anaara al-nabtu): ظهر و حسن (tha-hara wa hasan) the plant was revealed well from light.

نور (noor): be revealed, to be lighted, to receive light.

So clearly, when the Qur’an Said that the sun is ضياء (diyaa'a), a source of light, and the moon a , نورا then clearly the moon:

1- Is reflecting to light, because it is د شعاعة y إستم (was supplied by light), as this is the meaning of , إستنار which is derived from the root word نور noor.

2- Is reflecting to light, because it is ظهر و حسن (was revealed well from light) , as this is the meaning of انار , as in .انار النبت

3- Is reflecting to light, because it receives light from the sun and it is lighted and revealed by it.

 Re: WikiIslam Quran Scientific Error - The Moon is "Noor", which emits light too***

 

  

"Let us first see the meaning of Noor:

1. "to receive enlightenment" Hans Wehr 4th ed. page no.1183
2. "accidental light" Lanes Lexicon page 2865
3. "Some said Zia(word used in this verse for sun) means personal light and Noor(word used in this verse for moon) is the light which is not personal.........but its meaning will be reflected light only when it will be compared with Zia." Lughat ul Quran page 1670
4. "Mutakallamin says the thing wich is itself illuminated is Zia like sun and which gets light from someone other is noor like Moon." Riaz us Salikin ( I copied it from Tafseer Anwar un Najaf vol 7 page 147)

Now I quote some of interpretations of Quran indicating that moon is said Noor in the verse because it reflects light from sun.Some references are as:

1. Tafseer e Naeemi vol. 11 page 196
2. Tafseer e Namoona vol. 5 page 41
3. Tafseer Anwar u Najaf vol. 7 page 147
4. Tafseer Roh ul Bayan  Para 9,10 and 11 page 881(Urdu translation by Muhammad Faiz Awaisi)
5. Tafseer Kamalain Sharah Jalalain vol. 3 page 36
6. Tafseer Mazhari vol. 5 page 312

As a reference  Quotes a verse from Holy Quran 24:35 which says:

"Allah is the Noor of the heavens and the Earths......................................"

ANSWER:

All the Muslim scholars agree that allah is not NOOR but He is the creator of noor because noor is that body which itself appears,make other appeared but Allah has no body so here noor means CREATOR OF LIGHT  OF HEAVENS AND EARTH The word Noor in names of Allah also means BEAUTIFUL. The Hadith of Holy Prophet of Sahih Muslim is its interpretation. (From Tafseer e Naeemi vol. 11 page  200)

All above discussion clearify that Holy Quran says that moon reflects light not that moon is a light.( by imtiaz bashir )

[24:35]
The oil of the lamp is ready to glow by itself even without being kindled. The bright luminous light is atop another brilliant light
The oil is about to يضيئ (yudee'o) without being kindled by fire. Notice how the OIL, in the Parable, is the SOURCE OF LIGHT, and the Arabic word yudee'o يضيئ is derived from the root words ضياء (diyaa'a) and ضوء (dawa').
ضوء (dawa'): to gleam, radiate, to illumine, illuminate, to shed light, cast light.
It's the original light = sun
Poet says
اضاءَتْ لنا النارُ وجهاً اغرَّ, مُلتبِساً, بالفُؤادِ, إلتِباسا The fire has originated (اضاءَتْ is derived from ضياء ) for us the light of a mighty glow, that will always be liked by the heart (or something like that).
Allah Almighty Said that the sun is ضياء (diyaa'a), a source of light, and the moon a نورا , then clearly the moon:
Moon is a reflecting to light nur from the origin light diyaa By Ridouan Soumaa

Moon Emits Light Reply

Moon light is reflected light

by Saif min Suyufillah

I should clarify it that the word Muneer is accusative of the noun Noor.
The accusative case (abbreviated acc) of a noun is the grammatical case used to mark the direct object of a transitive verb.
Muneer is something or someone directly under the influence of Noor.
Muneer is something or someone acted upon by Noor.
Allah is the Noor of Universe and Prophet Muhammad s.a.w.w. is mentioned as Muneer.
Sun is Siraj (lamp) and Moon is Muneer.

 Muneer and munawwar are accusative or acted upon,while Noor is Noun.



Moon reflects the light of Sun.Muneer
Moon reflects up to the extent that it has “Moon light”.So it is also known as Noor.
You may see in the moon light too (Noor up to some extent) ,but again the fact is that it is Muneer,actually acted upon by the light of Sun.


Allah is Noor,He is not called as Munawwar or Muneer anywhere.
Prophet Muhammad s.a.w.w is however called as Muneer,the reflected Light or acted upon by Ligh

Moon light is reflected light



Did the scientists find a glowing material in the moon? by
Abduldaem Al-Kaheel

Long ago, scientists began talking about an illumination on the surface of the moon discovered that the moon`s surface has a radioactivity which is different from the Earth. That is because Earth is surrounded by a strong magnetic field that saves the Earth from any cosmic radiation. However the moon does not have any atmosphere, therefore, it receives a large amount of electrified solar wind and cosmic radiation. This radiation interact with the moon’s dust and makes it reflect the sun rays more than the rest of other planets, so it seems  not only illuminating, but very illuminating!! 

Dr. Mark Norman from the University of Tasmania says: We have examined the samples from the moon and find them different from the Earth`s rocks and the most thing that distinguish them is the proportion of glass in the dust of the moon! This glass is 3 billion years and there are no proportion of glass in the rocks on Earth which have the same age .This glass is the reason why the moon seems more illuminating than other planets. Before  I continue my discussion with you brothers and sisters, I  remember a great Quran  verse in which Allah Almighty describes the moon as an  illumining object: (Blessed be He Who has placed in the heaven big stars, and has placed therein a great lamp (sun), and a moon giving light)] Al Furqan:61[. It is curious to find some scientists reveal glowing spots on the surface of the moon as it was stated by the BBC News website in an article titled “lights glow on the moon”. Scientists said that the moon is not a dead object as it was believed before; there are radiation activities on the surface. To know more information about this scientific discovery go to BBC News website.

In a new research on NASA site, scientists found that the moon receives a lot of cosmic particles coming from the sun and they are electrically charged. Consequently, the surface of the moon becomes electrically charged at specific times which forms storms of moon`s dust. When sun light (photons of light) fall, it reacts with moon`s dust and glow strongly like an electric lamp receiving   amount of electricity!



Recently, scientists found that the moon`s dust is very dangerous because it is electrified; the design of the moon helps to make it an object which is strongly influenced by the sun and seems illuminating. The absence of a magnetic field around the moon and the nature of moon`s soil resulting from the defamation of millions of meteorites, and the distance of the moon from the earth and the sun, in addition to the distinguished composition of the moon`s soil which contains a large proportion of glass! All these factors help the moon to spread large amounts of light, to appear glowing to us. Unlike the Earth which, if we viewed it from the moon side, we will not see it illuminating .This illumination gives the moon a distinctive feature. Scientists have noticed the presence of glowing spots caused by radioactivity on the surface of the moon, thus, this scientific discovery has been  
stated by the Quran fourteen centuries as Allah Almighty describes it as a glowing body, the Almighty says (and a moon giving light)

1.    Moon Origin as Star by Abdallah Muslim

Quoted from NASA – Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter

How did the moon form?

We think that the moon and Earth formed at about the same time, back when our whole solar system was formed. Earth was forming from many chunks of rock and icy material. Possibly a big chunk hit the new Earth and knocked loose a big piece, which became the moon.

Does the moon really have volcanoes?

Yes, the moon has some volcanoes. But as far as I know they are all "dead" volcanoes that have not erupted for millions of years. Most of the craters on the moon are from the surface being hit by asteroids and comets billions of years ago. The moon is a very "quiet" place. There is no air or water to erode the surface, and there are no large earthquakes or active volcanoes to change the surface. Only small rocks may still hit the surface. So it has not changed much in billions of years! Probably the biggest changes recently are the footprints from the astronauts that visited the moon about 30 years ago. [1]

[Quran]

This theory of moon formation is the silliest theory in astrology, because of the following unanswered queries:
  • How could such huge collision once happened on Earth, and there is not even a single track on Earth, not even a hole or a valley in moon size on all Earth surface ?!
  • How did the Earth keep its perfect shape all over its surface with no bending, even on the collision side?
  • How it is possible ever, that Earth and Meteor scattered parts will form their own gravity?
  • Why didn’t they fall on Earth surface again? But instead, they combined together and formed a new planet !!
The real and actual theory is the same explained in part (3) from the Quran and Bible, and it’s mentioned in the following verse:

وجعلنا الليل والنهار ايتين فمحونا اية الليل وجعلنا اية النهار مبصرة لتبتغوا فضلا من ربكم ولتعلموا عدد السنين والحساب وكل شيء فصلناه تفصيلا

And We have appointed the night and the day as two Ayât (signs etc.). Then, We have obliterated the sign of the night while We have made the sign of the day illuminating, that you may seek bounty from your Lord, and that you may know the number of the years and the reckoning. And We have explained everything (in detail) with full explanation. (17:12)

The moon was among the earliest stars in universe like Sun but smaller in size, ALLAH had put its flame Off for our benefit, so we can differentiate time between daylight and night, and to know exactly the period of each month and to be able to count days and years correctly.

2.    Sun as Star & Moon reflects light

We all know that Moon reflects sun light into Earth atmosphere to show us the moon at night, and it’s not a shining star by itself.

This scientific fact was unknown before 1400 years ago but the following verse in Quran clearly states that Moon makes the light inside the heaven, also it differentiates it from Sun which is described as lamp:

أَلَمْ تَرَوْا كَيْفَ خَلَقَ اللَّهُ سَبْعَ سَمَاوَاتٍ طِبَاقًا (15) وَجَعَلَ الْقَمَرَ فِيهِنَّ نُورًا وَجَعَلَ الشَّمْسَ سِرَاجًا (16)

See you not how Allâh has created the seven heavens one above another, (15) And has made the moon a light therein, and made the sun a lamp? (16)

هو الذي جعل الشمس ضياء والقمر نورا وقدره منازل لتعلموا عدد السنين والحساب ما خلق الله ذلك الا بالحق يفصل الايات لقوم يعلمون

He it is Who appointed the sun a splendor and the moon a light, and measured for her stages, that ye might know the number of the years, and the reckoning. Allah created not (all) that save in truth. He detaileth the revelations for people who have knowledge. [10:5]

The correct meaning comes from the following:
  • Since the verse mentions that moon has caused “light therein” (فِيهِنَّ نُورًا), means reflects light into the Sky (heaven), and the light is not emitted by the moon but caused by the moon in the sky (atmosphere). 
  • Secondly, we all know from physics that light can’t be seen by itself unless it’s reflected on certain surface, and the word used in the above verses is “light” and not “lamp” like the SUN.
  • by Abdallah Muslim

Verse (4:174)

 O mankind, there has come to you a conclusive proof from your Lord, and We have sent down to you a clear light(nuran / quran )

Verse (64:8)

 Therefore believe in Allah and His Messenger and the Light(nur / quran ) which We have revealed; and Allah is Aware of what you do.
24:35 God is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The parable of His light is, as it were,50 that of a niche containing a lamp; the lamp is [enclosed] in glass, the glass [shining] like a radiant star:51 [a lamp] lit from a blessed tree - an olive-tree that is neither of the east nor of the west52 - the oil whereof [is so bright that it] would well-nigh give light [of itself] even though fire had not touched it: light upon light!53 God guides unto His light him that wills [to be guided];54 and [to this end] God propounds parables unto men, since God [alone] has full knowledge of all things.55 

CommentaryEdit


50 The particle ka ("as if" or "as it were") prefixed to a noun is called kaf at-tashbih ("the letter kaf pointing to a resemblance [of one thing to another]" or "indicating a metaphor"). In the above context it alludes to the impossibihty of defining God even by means of a metaphor or a parable - for, since "there is nothing like unto Him" (42:11), there is also "nothing that could be compared with Him" (112:4). Hence, the parable of "the light of God" is not meant to express His reality - which is inconceivable to any created being and, therefore, inexpressible in any human language but only to allude to the illumination which He, who is the Ultimate Truth, bestows upon the mind and the feelings of all who are willing to be guided. Tabari, Baghawi and Ibn Kathir quote Ibn 'Abbas and Ibn Mas'ud as saying in this context: "It is the parable of His light in the heart of a believer." 51 The "lamp" is the revelation which God grants to His prophets and which is reflected in the believer's heart - the "niche" of the above parable (Ubayy ibn Ka'b, as quoted by Tabari) - after being received and consciously grasped by his reason ("the glass [shining brightly] like a radiant star"): for it is through reason alone that true faith can find its way into the heart of man.
 52 It would seem that this is an allusion to the organic continuity of all divine revelation which, starting like a tree from one "root" or proposition - the statement of God's existence and uniqueness - grows steadily throughout man's spiritual history, branching out into a splendid variety of religious experience, thus endlessly widening the range of man's perception of the truth. The association of this concept with the olive-tree apparently arises from the fact that this particular kind of tree is characteristic of the lands in which most of the prophetic precursors of the Qur'anic message lived, namely, the lands to the east of the mediterranean: but since all true revelation flows from the Infinite Being, it is "neither of the east nor of the west" - and especially so the revelation of the Qur'an, which, being addressed to all mankind, is universal in its goal as well.
 53 The essence of the Qur'anic message is described elsewhere as "clear [in itself] and clearly showing the truth" (cf. note 2 on 12:1); and it is, I believe, this aspect of the Qur'an that the above sentence alludes to. Its message gives light because it proceeds from God; but it "would well-nigh give light [of itself] even though fire had not touched it": i.e., even though one may be unaware that it has been "touched by the fire" of divine revelation, its inner consistency, truth and wisdom ought to be self-evident to anyone who approaches it in the light of his reason and without prejudice.by muhammad assad

Perhaps more than any other, this single ayat suggests only mystical interpretations, as the metaphor is completely coherent, but it does not surrender an obvious meaning. Hence it was and remains a key Qur'anic passage to many Sufis and Muslim philosophers into the present day, who argue for esoteric readings of the Qur'an. Most noteworthy amongst the intellectual and spiritual geniuses who have puzzled over Ayat an-Nur is al-Ghazali (d. 1111), whose reflections on this verse, as well as the nature of divine Light is collected in his masterpiece Mishkat al-Anwar (the "Niche of Lights").
