Al-Noor
Or [the state of a disbeliever] is like the darkness in a vast deep sea, overwhelmed with waves topped by waves, topped by dark clouds, (layers of) darkness upon darkness: if a man stretches out his hand, he can hardly see it! And he for whom Allâh has not appointed light, for him there is no light. (40) See you not (O Muhammad SAW) that Allâh, He it is Whom glorify whosoever is in the heavens and the earth, and the birds with wings out-spread (in their flight)? Of each one He (Allâh) knows indeed his Salât (prayer) and his glorification, [or everyone knows his Salât (prayer) and his glorification], and Allâh is All-Aware of what they do. (41) And to Allâh belongs the sovereignty of the heavens and the earth, and to Allâh is the return (of all). (42) See you not that Allâh drives the clouds gently, then joins them together, then makes them into a heap of layers, and you see the rain comes forth from between them. And He sends down from the sky hail (like) mountains, (or there are in the heaven mountains of hail from where He sends down hail), and strike therewith whom He wills, and averts it from whom He wills. The vivid flash of its (clouds) lightning nearly blinds the sight. [Tafsir At-Tabarî]. (43) Allâh causes the night and the day to succeed each other (i.e. if the day is gone, the night comes, and if the night is gone, the day comes, and so on). Truly, in these things is indeed a lesson for those who have insight. (44)
CAHAYA
Atau seperti gelap gulita di lautan yang dalam, yang diliputi oleh ombak, yang di atasnya ombak [pula], di atasnya [lagi] awan; gelap gulita yang tindih-bertindih, apabila dia mengeluarkan tangannya, tiadalah dia dapat melihatnya, [dan] barangsiapa yang tiada diberi cahaya [petunjuk] oleh Allah tiadalah dia mempunyai cahaya sedikitpun. (40) Tidakkah kamu tahu bahwasanya Allah: kepada-Nya bertasbih apa yang di langit dan di bumi dan [juga] burung dengan mengembangkan sayapnya. Masing-masing telah mengetahui [cara] sembahyang dan tasbihnya [2], dan Allah Maha Mengetahui apa yang mereka kerjakan. (41) Dan kepunyaan Allah-lah kerajaan langit dan bumi dan kepada Allah-lah kembali [semua makhluk]. (42) Tidakkah kamu melihat bahwa Allah mengarak awan, kemudian mengumpulkan antara [bagian-bagian]nya, kemudian menjadikannya bertindih-tindih, maka kelihatanlah olehmu hujan keluar dari celah-celahnya dan Allah [juga] menurunkan [butiran-butiran] es dari langit, [yaitu] dari [gumpalan-gumpalan awan seperti] gunung-gunung, maka ditimpakan-Nya [butiran-butiran] es itu kepada siapa yang dikehendaki-Nya dan dipalingkan-Nya dari siapa yang dikehendaki-Nya. Kilauan kilat awan itu hampir-hampir menghilangkan penglihatan. (43) Allah mempergantikan malam dan siang. Sesungguhnya pada yang demikian itu, terdapat pelajaran yang besar bagi orang-orang yang mempunyai penglihatan. (44)
