Gold and silver. The suns and the moons

And the saying of the Exalted: {And He subjected for you the sun and the moon, both constant} (Ibrahim 33). These are gold and silver.

And His saying: {and the sun, the moon, and the stars, subjected by His command} (Al-A'raf 54). They are also the gold and silver subjected in the hands of the children of Adam for fulfilling needs.

And the saying of the Exalted: {It is He who made the sun a shining light and the moon a derived light} (Yunus 5).

And the saying of the Exalted: {It is not allowable for the sun to reach the moon, nor does the night outstrip the day, but each, in an orbit, is swimming} (Ya-Sin 40). These are the praised sun and moon through whose existence the Abode and the human world are established.

And the saying of the Exalted: {Indeed, We have adorned the nearest heaven with an adornment of stars} (As-Saffat 6). The heaven is Salsal, and the stars are the people of the ranks from the Luminous World.

And His saying: {The Day when We will fold the heaven like the folding of a [written] sheet for the records} (Al-Anbiya 104). It is the highness of the Opposites and the loftiness of their status in the world; He folds their status upon the appearance of the Mahdi.

And His saying: {So when vision is dazzled, And the moon darkens} (Al-Qiyamah 7-8).
