Going to bed at night
For all thinking people, there are many matters to reflect on in
the creation of the night. Our Lord announced this to human beings
in the following verse of the Qur'an:
"A Sign for them is the night:
We peel the day away from it and there they are in darkness."
(Surah Ya Sin: 37) One of these matters is hidden in the gradual dis-
appearance of the light and the darkening of the sky. Because of this
slow transition, living things easily become accus-
tomed to the differences in light and tempera-
ture between day and night and suffer no
harm because of them. Allah, with His
supreme knowledge and power, has mercy
on His slaves and all living things, and He
gives this blessing to all people but most do not
think of it even once in their lives.
When a person who lives by
the values of the Qur'an considers
these things, he sees another
proof of what Allah re-
vealed in verse
