➋ { اَفَلَا تَعْقِلُوْنَ :} The interrogative hamzah is originally after the fa, but since its place is at the beginning of the speech, it has been brought before the fa, meaning: So do you not understand even such a clear matter? Or you may say: So do you not understand anything at all?

The Alternation of Night and Day:
That is, in this world, at every moment, He continues to bring forth the living from the dead and the dead from the living. If you reflect, you can find dozens of such examples within yourself and in your surroundings. Likewise, He brings forth light from darkness and then causes the light to be lost again in darkness. The alternation of day and night, the gradual decrease in the length of days and the increase in the length of nights, and conversely, the shortening of nights and the lengthening of days, then the changes and alternations of the seasons—all these things are under His control. Then can you not understand that the Being who possesses such immense powers is also capable of gathering you together and presenting you before Himself? According to the current theory, our earth has two types of rotations: one daily, that is, around its axis in 24 hours, and the other annual, around the sun at an angle of sixty-six and a half degrees. From this, day and night come into existence and changes occur in the seasons. This is merely a difference of theory; as far as Allah’s power is concerned, everyone must acknowledge it in any case. In fact, in the current theory, the power of Allah Almighty becomes even more evident, Who has set our earth and even much larger celestial bodies in motion in such a way that they do not deviate in the least, nor can they.
