Nouman Ali Khan, Zakir Naik, among other Muslims, claim that “NURAN” in Surah 71:16 means “reflected or borrowed light”. However no Muslim in his right mind will claim that Allah (SWT) is reflected/borrowed light “Allahu nuru” (24:35) or Surah Al Nur is “Surah the reflected/borrowed light”. The Tafsirs of Surah 71:16 by ibn Abbas (RA), ibn Kathir (RA), Jalalayn (RA) all affirm that the Ayah speaks of the moon having its own, independent light. Scientifically the moon has no light (nuran), but I only believe in the Quran & Sunnah. What does this word (nur/nuran) actually mean, does the Quran affirm that the moon has its own independent light, nothing to do with the sun?
