The Ayat an-Nur (”The Sign of Light” or “The Verse of Light”) is the 35th line of the 24th sura of the Qur’an, Surah an-Nur. This verse is renowned for its remarkable beauty and imagery. Read and reflect:
Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth;
The parable of His Light is as (if there were) a niche;
And within it a lamp, the lamp is in glass;
The glass as it were a brilliant star, lit from a blessed tree;
An olive, neither of the east nor of the west;
Whose oil would almost glow forth (of itself), though no fire touched it;
Light upon Light! Allah guides to His Light whom He wills;
And Allah sets forth parables for mankind;
And Allah is All-Knower of everything.[24:35]
