(41:37) وَمِنْ آيَاتِهِ اللَّيْلُ وَالنَّهَارُ وَالشَّمْسُ وَالْقَمَرُ لَا تَسْجُدُوا لِلشَّمْسِ وَلَا لِلْقَمَرِ وَاسْجُدُوا لِلَّهِ الَّذِي خَلَقَهُنَّ إِن كُنتُمْ إِيَّاهُ تَعْبُدُونَ

(2:258) Did the news come to you of the person who debated with Abraham regarding his Lord, though Allah had given him the kingship? Abraham said, "My Lord is the One who gives life and death," he said, "I bring life and death." Abraham said, "Allah brings the sun from the east, so you bring it from the west!" The one who did not appreciate was confounded! Allah does not guide the wicked community.

(6:77) So when he saw the moon rising, he said, "This is my Lord." But when it disappeared he said, "If my Lord will not guide me, then I will be amongst the wicked people!"

(6:78) So when he saw the sun rising, he said, "This is my Lord, this is bigger." But when it disappeared he said, "My people, I am innocent of what you have set up."

(14:33) He committed for you the sun and the moon, both in continuity; and He committed for you the night and the day.
