Does the Quran correctly state that the Moon is a reflected light?
<p>The Qur’an says the moon is a reflected light, since it derives its light from the sun. How could the Prophet have known this? It calls the moon ‘noor’ which here means reflected light.</p>
<p>“See ye not how Allah has created the seven heavens one above another, and made the moon a light (noor) in their midst, and made the sun as a lamp (siraaj)?” [Surah 71:15–16]</p>
<p>“It is He who made the sun radiant, and the moon a light, and determined phases for it-that you may know the number of years and the calculation. Allah did not create all this except with truth. He details the revelations for a people who know.” [Surah 10:5]</p>
