رَحْمَة
This verse invites us to reflect on Allah's mercy in the alternation of day and night.
قُلۡ أَرَءَيۡتُمۡ إِن جَعَلَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيۡكُمُ ٱلنَّهَارَ سَرۡمَدًا إِلَىٰ يَوۡمِ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِ مَنۡ إِلَٰهٌ غَيۡرُ ٱللَّهِ يَأۡتِيكُم بِلَيۡلٖ تَسۡكُنُونَ فِيهِۚ أَفَلَا تُبۡصِرُونَ
Say, "Have you considered: if Allah should make for you the day continuous until the Day of Resurrection, what deity other than Allah could bring you a night in which you may rest? Then will you not see?"
Quran, Al-Qasas 28:72
Allah challenges humanity: if the day were endless, who could bring us the night to rest? No one but Him. This simple fact reveals His mercy: He created the night for rest and the day for activity. In our daily lives, we often take this rhythm for granted. Yet every sunset is a reminder of this grace. Taking a moment to observe it helps us cultivate gratitude.
Today, at sunset, take a minute to observe the sky and thank Allah for the coming night.
