أَلَمْ تَرَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ كَيْفَ مَدَّ الظِّلَّ وَلَوْ شَاءَ لَجَعَلَهُ سَاكِنًا ثُمَّ جَعَلْنَا الشَّمْسَ عَلَيْهِ دَلِيلًا
Sahih International
Have
you not considered your Lord - how He extends the shadow,
and if He willed, He could have made it stationary? Then We
made the sun for it an indication.
The word dalil has been used in the sense of the pilot, who is a person
trained to take ships safely in or out of a harbor, or along a waterway. The
sun has been made the pilot of the shadow because the lengthening out of the
shadow and its being rolled up depends on the rising, declining and setting
of the sun.
Sunlight and shade are such blessings of God that without them it would not have been possible for mankind to survive and carry on its day to day functions. If there is sunlight all the time, it will create problems not only for humans but for all living things. On the other hand, if there is shade all the time, then also neither man nor other living creatures can survive. Allah Ta'ala has created these two blessings by His limitless power and made them beneficial for the mankind. At the same time Allah Ta'ala. through His infinite wisdom, has tied up all created things with specific causes in the sense that these things come into existence only when such causes are available, and if they are absent, these things do not exist. Similarly, if the causes are strong and available in abundance, the existence of their effects is also strong and abundant, and vice versa.
The Islam haters are being sophists & dishonest in their trials to attack islam.
The whole ayah didn't mention anything related to sun moving around the earth as they want to portray, their only solution to avoid 'scientific errors' in their ill mind in the future is to start screaming in the streets that the earth is the source of shadows !
