Surah 25. Al-Furqan, Ayah 61

See 10:5 , where the sun if spoken of as "a [source of] radiant light", explained in the corresponding note [10]. For my rendering of buruj as "great constellations", see note [15] on 15:16 .

 The sun.

The glorious Lamp of the skies is the Sun; and next to him is the Moon, which gives borrowed light. The Constellations of course include the Signs of the Zodiac, which mark the path of the planets in the heavens.
