91:01
Siraj (Lamp)
There is no doubt that the luminous lamp, i.e. the holy Prophet is the sun of the world of religion and his wasiyy (legatee) is its moon, as God says in verses (91:1-2): "By the sun and his forenoon, by the moon when she follows him." Here, by the sun is meant natiq and by the moon, asas, who are the sun and the moon of the world of religion.
In those verses of the noble Qur’an, in which God has sworn, and in the verses subsequent to them certain great secrets of spirituality are implied, as in verse (91:1-10): “... Then He inspired it (soul) its impiety and its piety; indeed succeeded he who purified it, and indeed failed he who buried it” (91:8-10).
