24.35

اَللّٰهُ نُوْرُ السَّمٰوٰتِ وَ الْاَرْضِؕ-مَثَلُ نُوْرِهٖ كَمِشْكٰوةٍ فِیْهَا مِصْبَاحٌؕ-اَلْمِصْبَاحُ فِیْ زُجَاجَةٍؕ-اَلزُّجَاجَةُ كَاَنَّهَا كَوْكَبٌ دُرِّیٌّ یُّوْقَدُ مِنْ شَجَرَةٍ مُّبٰرَكَةٍ زَیْتُوْنَةٍ لَّا شَرْقِیَّةٍ وَّ لَا غَرْبِیَّةٍۙ-یَّكَادُ زَیْتُهَا یُضِیْٓءُ وَ لَوْ لَمْ تَمْسَسْهُ نَارٌؕ-نُوْرٌ عَلٰى نُوْرٍؕ یَهْدِی اللّٰهُ لِنُوْرِهٖ مَنْ یَّشَآءُؕ-وَ یَضْرِبُ اللّٰهُ الْاَمْثَالَ لِلنَّاسِؕ-وَ اللّٰهُ بِكُلِّ شَیْءٍ عَلِیْمٌۙ (35)

Kanz-ul-Irfan

Allah is the One Who illuminates the heavens and the earth.[1] The example of His light is like a niche in which there is a lamp; the lamp is in a crystal; the crystal is like a shining star, lit from the ˹oil of the˺ blessed olive tree, neither eastern nor western. It is near that its oil ignites even if fire does not touch it. Light upon light. Allah guides whomsoever He wills to His light. And Allah sets examples for people—and Allah knows everything.

Commentary

[1]

Al-Nūr is one of the names of Allah Almighty, and its meaning here is that Allah Almighty is the Source of guidance in the heavens and the earth; the inhabitants of the heavens and the earth come to the path of truth through His Light, or it means that Allah Almighty is the One Who illuminates the heavens and the earth. Some Quranic commentators interpreted this light to be the Quran, and according to another commentary, this light refers to the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم.
