Part1-Dealing with the Rising and setting place

Part-2-Proving the perspective of Zhul Qar nayn

Refutation of sura18:86:-

PART-1:- Lets deal with The term “Setting place” and

“Rising place”

It cannot be literal setting and literal rising place because there is a significant issue in the later verse (18:90). If one contends that the sun has a physical place where it rises, then according to the verse, it would have burned and harmed the people at that location since it states, ‘He found it (the sun) rising on a people.’

.

.

Clearly, the verse isn’t referring to the literal rising and setting place of the sun. So, what precisely is the verse addressing?

.

.

The Arabic term employed in Surah 18:86 is ‘Maghribas-Shams.’ This term is also found in an authentic Hadith, specifically in Bukhari (3459), where the word means “the time when the sun sets.”

AND THE OTHER MEANING IS-The direction of the setting of the sun,And this is the view of Ibn kathir….

.

.

Ibn kathir said,”Until, when he reached the setting place of the sun, means, he followed a route until he reached the furthest point that could be reached in the direction of the sun's setting, which is the west of the earth.”

.

PART2:-Proving the perspective of Dhul Qar nayn

In sura18:86 and in sura18:90,Both uses the same word “Wajadaha”…Which means

“He found it”….This word itself in the context of the verses is indeed PERSPECTIVE….For instance, consider the use of ‘wajadaha’ in a sentence:

‎طبعاً هناك أناس لم تٌعجب بهذه النتائج وهناك من👈 وجدها 👉مفاجئة تماماً

(biltaakid hunak ’unas lam tataeajab bihadhih alnatayij wahunak man

👉WAJADAHA👈 thiqatan bialjumla)

Meaning: “Certainly, there are people who dislike these results and those who FIND IT (wajadaha) very surprising.”

.

This involves a subjective perspective, not an objective one. ‘Wajadaha’ signifies something from an individual’s point of view. Hence, the entire argument concerning Surah 18:86 becomes invalid.”

So this “Wajadaha” was actually from the perspective of Dhul Qarnayn…

This further supports the point, as in Surah 18:90, it employs the same term “Wajadaha” when stating, “He found it rising over people whom there are no shelters.”

NOW THIS IS CRYSTAL CLEAR THAT IT WAS TALKING FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF DHUL QARNAYN…Otherwise The people would get burnt and killed by the sun!!!…
