The Benefits to Humans Due to the Order in the Moon and the Sun:
The sun and the moon move according to a fixed speed. Then, not even for a moment is there any delay in this, which is a great blessing for mankind. Day and night alternate due to the sun, and there is a gradual change in the seasons. The times of prayers are also related to the sun. The ripening of crops also depends on the sun. From the moon, we get light at night. We can keep track of months and years, and this is the real and natural calendar. That is why the fasts of Ramadan, Hajj, Eids, and other countable periods such as the period of pregnancy, the period of suckling, and the 'iddah (waiting period), etc., are related to the moon. Then, such an appropriate distance has been kept between the sun and the earth that any increase or decrease in it would make life on this earth impossible for humans and all other living beings. And all these benefits are being obtained only because Allah Almighty has bound these massive bodies in such natural laws that they cannot deviate from them, and they are constantly revolving in their fixed orbits at a fixed speed.
