اللَّهُ نُورُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ مَثَلُ نُورِهِ كَمِشْكَاةٍ فِيهَا مِصْبَاحٌ الْمِصْبَاحُ فِي زُجَاجَةٍ الزُّجَاجَةُ كَأَنَّهَا كَوْكَبٌ دُرِّيٌّ يُوقَدُ مِن شَجَرَةٍ مُّبَارَكَةٍ زَيْتُونِةٍ لَّا شَرْقِيَّةٍ وَلَا غَرْبِيَّةٍ يَكَادُ زَيْتُهَا يُضِيءُ وَلَوْ لَمْ تَمْسَسْهُ نَارٌ نُّورٌ عَلَى نُورٍ يَهْدِي اللَّهُ لِنُورِهِ مَن يَشَاءُ وَيَضْرِبُ اللَّهُ الْأَمْثَالَ لِلنَّاسِ وَاللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمٌ{35}النور.فسر الآية الكريمة.
الله نور السموات والأرض يدبر الأمر فيهما ويهدي أهلهما، فهو- سبحانه- نور، وحجابه نور، به استنارت السموات والأرض وما فيهما، وكتاب الله وهدايته نور منه سبحانه، فلولا نوره تعالى لتراكمت الظلمات بعضها فوق بعض. مثل نوره الذي يهدي إليه, وهو الإيمان والقرآن في قلب المؤمن كمشكاة, وهي الكُوَّة في الحائط غير النافذة، فيها مصباح، حيث تجمع الكوَّة نور المصباح فلا يتفرق، وذلك المصباح في زجاجة، كأنها -لصفائها- كوكب مضيء كالدُّر، يوقَد المصباح من زيت شجرة مباركة، وهي شجرة الزيتون، لا شرقية فقط، فلا تصيبها الشمس آخر النهار، ولا غربية فقط فلا تصيبها الشمس أول النهار، بل هي متوسطة في مكان من الأرض لا إلى الشرق ولا إلى الغرب، يكاد زيتها -لصفائه- يضيء من نفسه قبل أن تمسه النار، فإذا مَسَّتْه النار أضاء إضاءة بليغة، نور على نور، فهو نور من إشراق الزيت على نور من إشعال النار، فذلك مثل الهدى يضيء في قلب المؤمن. والله يهدي ويوفق لإتباع القرآن مَن يشاء، ويضرب الأمثال للناس؛ ليعقلوا عنه أمثاله وحكمه. والله بكل شيء عليم, لا يخفى عليه شيء.
آية
God is the light of the heavens and the earth. He arranges their affairs and guides their people. He is the light, and His light is a guide. By His light, the heavens and the earth are illuminated, and so is the Qur'an and His guidance. Without His light, darkness would accumulate. His light is like a guiding beacon, and faith and the Qur'an in a believer's heart are like a niche, a glass, a lamp within it, giving light from all sides. The lamp is fed with oil from a blessed tree, the olive tree, which is neither eastern nor western, but in a middle land. Its oil is so pure that it seems to glow by itself before the fire touches it. When the fire does touch it, it gives off a brilliant light, one light from the oil and another from the fire. This is like the guidance that illuminates the heart of a believer. God guides and helps whomever He wills to follow the Qur'an, and He uses parables to help people understand. He is all-knowing, and nothing is hidden from Him.
Verse
Explain the meaning of the verse: 'Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The example of His light is like a niche within which is a lamp, the lamp is within glass, the glass as if it were a pearl-like star lit from a blessed olive tree, neither of the east nor of the west, its oil would almost glow even if untouched by fire. Light upon light. Allah guides to His light whom He wills. And Allah presents examples for the people, and Allah is Knowing of all things.'
Quran Surah 24 Ayah 35:
Allah Is The Light Of The Heavens And The Earth. The Likeness Of His Light (Which Is Glowing In The World In The Form Of Muhammad’S Light [Blessings And Peace Be Upon Him]) Is As A Niche-Like (Sacred Breast) Wherein Is Glowing The Lamp (Of Prophethood), The Lamp Contained In A Crystal Globe (The Radiant Heart Of The Prophet Muhammad [Blessings And Peace Be Upon Him]). This Globe Is (As Dazzlingly Bright Owing To Reflection Of Allah’S Light) As A Glittering Star. (This Lamp Of Prophethood) Is Lit With The Sacred Olive Tree (I.E., Either Due To The Blissful Communication Of Divine Revelation From The Realm Of Divinity, Or Owing To The Blissful Genealogical Tree Of The Prophets And The Messengers). It Is Neither (Merely) Eastern Nor Western (Rather Universal And Cosmic In Its Generously Infinite Luminosity. The Likeness Of This Lamp Of Prophethood Is As If) Its Oil (I.E., Light, Due To Its Genuine And Inherent Potential Capability) Is Glowing, Though No Fire (Or The Radiation Of Celestial Miracles And Divine Revelation) Has Even Touched It Yet. (So It) Is Light Upon Light (I.E., The Light Of Prophethood Upon The Light Of The Holy Essence, Denoting A Self-Embodying Double Light). Allah Takes To (The Gnosis Of) His Light Whom He Wills. And Allah Explains Similitudes For (The Guidance Of) People And Allah Is Well Aware Of Everything.
