They prostrate themselves before the sun rather than Allah
}2{
)On another occasion) Solomon inspected the birds and said:
"Why is it that I do not see the hoopoe? Is he among the
absentees? I will inflict a severe punishment on him or maybe
even slaughter him unless he comes forth with a convincingreason (for his absence)." Not before long the hoopoe came up
and said: "I have obtained a knowledge which you could not. I
have brought for you sure news about Sheba. I found there a
woman ruling over them, one who has been endowed with all
things and has a mighty throne.I found that she and her people
prostrate themselves before the sun rather than Allah." Satan
has made their deeds appear attractive to them and has, thus,debarred them from the Right Path so they do not find true
guidance that they would prostrate themselves before Allah
Who brings forth whatever hidden in the heavens and the earth
and knows all that you conceal and all that you reveal.Allah -
none is worthy of worship but He; He is the Lord of the Mighty
Throne. (Prostrate)

Allah made the sun and the moon follow a reckoning.
That you may learn the calculation of years and the
reckoning of time
}{1 It is Allah Who has raised the heavens without any supports that you
could see, and then He established Himself on the Throne (of
Dominion). And He it is Who has made the sun and the moon
subservient (to a law), each running its course till an appointed term.
He governs the entire order of the universe and clearly explains the
signs that you may be firmly convinced about meeting your Lord.
2}{ He it is Who gave the sun radiance and the moon light, and
determined the stages (for the waxing and waning) of the moonthat you may learn the calculation of years and the reckoning of
time. Allah has created all this with a rightful purpose (rather
than out of play). He expounds His signs for the people who
know. Surely in the alternation of the night and the day and in all
that Allah has created in the heavens and the earth there are signs
for the people who seek to avoid (error of outlook and conduct).

Each of them is floating in its orbit.
We have adorned the lower heaven with lamps.
It is He Who has made for you the stars that you may follow
the right direction in the darkness of the land and the sea.
}-6}71
And We made the sky a secure canopy; and yet they turn away
from these Signs. It is He Who created the night and the day, and
the sun and the moon. Each of them is floating in its orbit.
}{ We have adorned the lower heaven with lamps, and have made
them a means to drive away the satans. We have prepared forthem the chastisement of the Blazing Fire.
}{It is He Who has made for you the stars that you may follow the
right direction in the darkness of the land and the sea. We have
indeed spelled out signs for the people who have knowledge.

And of His Signs are the night and the day, and the
sun and the moon.
We did not create this heaven and earth and all
that lies between them in vain.
}-}2 And the night is another Sign for them. We strip the day from itand they become plunged in darkness. The sun is running its
course to its appointed place. That is the ordaining of the All-
Mighty, the All-Knowing. We have appointed stages for the
moon till it returns in the shape of a dry old branch of palm-tree.
Neither does it lie in the sun's power to overtake the moon nor
can the night outstrip the day. All glide along, each in its own orbit.

We did not create this heaven and earth and all that lies between
them in vain. That is the fancy of those who denied the Truth. So
woe from the Fire to all who deny the Truth. Shall We then treat

Surely in the creation of the heavens and the earth, and
in the alternation of night and day, there are signs for
alike those that believe and act righteously and those that create
mischief on earth? Or treat alike the God-fearing and the wicked?}{
He created the heavens and the earth with Truth, and He folds
up the day over the night and folds up the night over the day. He
has subjected the sun and the moon, each is running its course until
an appointed time. Lo, He is the Most Mighty, the Most Forgiving.}3{ It was not in idle sport that We created the heavens and the
earth and all that is between them. We did not create them
except in Truth. But most of them do not know.

Lesson of Monotheism 4}1{
He causes the night to phase into the day and the day into the
night, and He has subjected the sun and the moon, each running
its course to an appointed term. That is Allah, your Lord; to Him
belongs the Kingdom; but those whom you call upon, apart from
Allah, possess not so much as the skin of a date-stone. If you call
upon them, they cannot hear your prayer. And if they hear it,
they cannot answer it. On the Day of Resurrection they will
disown you for associating others with Allah in His Divinity. No
one can inform you of the truth except the All-Aware. 4}26{

Do not prostrate yourselves before the sun, nor before the
moon, but prostrate yourselves before Allah Who created
them.
Say to them (O Prophet): Have you ever seen those of your
associates upon whom you call apart from Allah? Show me what
have they created in the earth? Or do they have any partnership(with Allah) in the heavens? Or have We given them a Book so
that they have a clear proof (for associating others with Allah in
His Divinity)? Nay, what these wrong-doers promise each other
is nothing but delusion. Surely Allah holds the heavens and the
earth, lest they should be displaced there, for if they were
displaced none would be able to hold them after Him. Surely He
is Most Forbearing, Most Forgiving.
}6}
And of His Signs are the night and the day, and the sun and the
moon. Do not prostrate yourselves before the sun, nor before
the moon, but prostrate yourselves before Allah Who created
them, if it is Him that you serve. (prostration)
