    📖 Commentary of Surah Al-Qasas – Verse 73

    "And out of His mercy, He has made the night and the day [179] for you, that you may rest during the night and seek His bounty during the day [180], and so that you may be grateful."

    ✅ [179] Divine Wisdom in the Order of Time

    The verse highlights that night precedes the day, which is significant in Islamic teachings:

    • In Shari'ah, a new day begins after sunset.

    • Darkness (night) comes first, followed by light (day)—symbolizing that ignorance precedes knowledge, and non-existence precedes existence.

    This divine arrangement reflects order, wisdom, and mercy, not randomness.

    ✅ [180] Earning and Resting – Both Are Acts of Worship

    We learn two essential lessons:

    1. Effort is a means, not the source.
      Seeking sustenance is necessary, but it should always be regarded as Allah’s bounty, not purely the result of our effort.

    2. Balance is key:

      • Day is designated for earning.

      • Night is meant for rest.
        One should not reverse this natural order without necessity. However, for those with unavoidable commitments like night-shift work, Shari'ah allows flexibility.

    The conclusion of this verse reminds us that this divine system is not just functional—it is a reason to express gratitude to Allah. Every alternation of night and day is a sign of mercy that deserves conscious thankfulness.
