darkness and light

Photographs have been taken of the Earth and its rotation around itself. If we take a closer look at these photographs and fast-forward them, we will notice how darkness and light constantly chase each other; that is, they follow each other, but neither light surpasses dark, nor dark surpasses light. This can never happen, because if they did overlap, we would see night during the day, and day during the night! In other words, darkness constantly chases light, but never overtakes it. It must be remembered that these discoveries of the Earth’s movement and of the relationship between night and day have required expertise, space voyages, money, decades of research and much more. Interestingly, we find that the Holy Qur’an has also quite precisely acknowledged this connection between night and day, highlighting the fact that night follows day:

{He draweth the night as a veil o'er the day, each seeking the other in rapid succession}
(Al A’raf, 7:54).
Indeed, it has been proven that the Earth is indeed very fast in its rotation around itself, however, we do not feel this at all, and this is one of God’s mercies upon us that we often take for granted!
