Verses with أضاء

Verses 1–3 of 3

  1. Each word opens its meaning.

    Their similitude is that of a man Who kindled a fire; When it lighted all around him, God took away their light And left them in utter darkness. So they could not see.

    Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:17
  2. Each word opens its meaning.

    The lightning all but snatches away Their sight; every time the light (Helps) them, they walk therein, And when the darkness grows on them, They stand still. And if God willed, He could take away Their faculty of hearing and seeing; For God hath power over all things

    Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:20
  3. Each word opens its meaning.

    God 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 enclosed 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 is well-nigh Luminous, Though fire scarce touched it Light upon Light! God doth guide Whom He will To His Light: God doth set forth Parables For men: and God Doth know all things.

    Surah An-Nur, verse 24:35
