(Surat an-Nur, 35) Tafsir http://www.aalalbayt.org God is the Light of the heavens and the earth, in other words, He illumines both of them with the sun and the moon. The likeness of His Light, that is, the description of it [as it resides] in the heart of a believer, is as a niche wherein is a lamp.
(Surat an-Nur, 35) http://www.aalalbayt.org The lamp is in a glass — this [glass] is the [case for the] lantern and the misbāh is the torch, that is, the wick that is lit; al-mishkāt is a recess that does not penetrate [to the other side], in other words, the tube inside the lantern, the glass,
(Surat an-Nur, 35) http://www.aalalbayt.org with the light inside it [is], as it were a glittering star, that is, a light-giving [star] (read dirrī’un or durrī’un, derived from al-dar‘, ‘to repel’, because it repels darkness; or read durriyyun, derived from al-durr, ‘pearls’) kindled, is this lamp (read past tense tawaqqada;
(Surat an-Nur, 35) http://www.aalalbayt.org a variant reading has the imperfect tense of awqada, in the passive voice: yūqadu; another reading has tūqadu, in which case the reference is to al-zujāja, ‘the glass’) from, the oil of, a Blessed Tree, an olive neither of the east nor of the west, but in between the two, so that no harmful cold or heat affects it; whose oil would almost glow forth [of itself], though no fire touched it, because of [the extent of] its purity.
(Surat an-Nur, 35) http://www.aalalbayt.org • Light, by Him, upon light, by fire; the light of God is His guidance of the believer, light upon the light of faith. God guides to His Light, that is, [to] the religion of Islam, whom He will. And God strikes, He illustrates, similitudes for men, by approximating [such similitudes] to their comprehension, so that they might take heed and believe; and God is Knower of all things, including [knowledge of] how to strike similitudes.

QUASARS AND THE GRAVITATIONAL LENS EFFECT • The reference in the verse to “light on light” may be a description of reflected light forming more than one image. • In addition, the term “neither of the east nor of the west” in the verse is in all likelihood a reference to the uncertainty of the light’s source. (Allah knows the truth.)
QUASARS AND THE GRAVITATIONAL LENS EFFECT • Quasars are the brightest objects in the universe, and are the nuclei of growing galaxies with the black holes in their center. • Black holes, that arise as the result of the contraction of stars and gasses belonging to galaxies, are the source of quasar energy.
