* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn


{ وَٱلشَّمْسُ تَجْرِي لِمُسْتَقَرٍّ لَّهَـا ذَلِكَ تَقْدِيرُ ٱلْعَزِيزِ ٱلْعَلِيمِ }

And the sun which runs from wa’l-shamsu tajrī to the end of the statement is subsumed by the introductory wa-āyatun lahum ‘and a sign for them’; alternatively it constitutes another sign for them; similar is the case with wa’l-qamara ‘and the moon’ further below to its resting-place in other words it does not overstep it. That namely its running is the ordaining of the Mighty in His kingdom the Knower of His creation.
