10:5
هُوَ الَّذِي جَعَلَ الشَّمْسَ ضِيَاء ً وَالْقَمَرَ نُورا ً وَقَدَّرَه ُُ مَنَازِلَ لِتَعْلَمُوا عَدَدَ السِّنِينَ وَالْحِسَابَ مَا خَلَقَ اللَّهُ ذَلِكَ إِلاَّ بِالْحَقِّ يُفَصِّلُ الآيَاتِ لِقَوْم ٍ يَعْلَمُونَ
Huwa Al-Ladhī Ja`ala Ash-Shamsa Điyā'an Wa Al-Qamara Nūrāan Wa Qaddarahu Manāzila Lita`lamū `Adada As-Sinīna Wa Al-Ĥisāba Mā Khalaqa Allāhu Dhālika 'Illā Bil-Ĥaqqi Yufaşşilu Al-'Āyāti Liqawmin Ya`lamūna

He is the One who has made the sun a radiance, and the moon a light, and He has measured its phases; that you may know the number of the years and the count. God has not created this except with the truth. He clarifies the revelations for a people who know.

21:48
وَلَقَدْ آتَيْنَا مُوسَى وَهَارُونَ الْفُرْقَانَ وَضِيَاء ً وَذِكْرا ً لِلْمُتَّقِينَ
Wa Laqad 'Ātaynā Mūsá Wa Hārūna Al-Furqāna Wa Điyā'an Wa Dhikrāan Lilmuttaqīna

And We had given Moses and Aaron the Criterion, a shining light, and reminder for the righteous.

28:71
قُلْ أَرَأَيْتُمْ إِنْ جَعَلَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكُمُ اللَّيْلَ سَرْمَدا ً إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ مَنْ إِلَه ٌٌ غَيْرُ اللَّهِ يَأْتِيكُمْ بِضِيَاءٍ أَفَلاَ تَسْمَعُونَ
Qul 'Ara'aytum 'In Ja`ala Allāhu `Alaykumu Al-Layla Sarmadāan 'Ilá Yawmi Al-Qiyāmati Man 'Ilahun Ghayru Allāhi Ya'tīkum BiĐiyā'in 'Afalā Tasma`ūna

Say: "Have you noted: what if God made the night eternal, until the Day of Resurrection? Which god, other than God, can bring you with light? Do you not listen?"

مَثَلُهُمْ كَمَثَلِ الَّذِي اسْتَوْقَدَ نَارا ً فَلَمَّا أَضَاءَتْ مَا حَوْلَه ُُ ذَهَبَ اللَّهُ بِنُورِهِمْ وَتَرَكَهُمْ فِي ظُلُمَات ٍ لاَ يُبْصِرُونَ
Mathaluhum Kamathali Al-Ladhī Astawqada Nārāan Falammā 'AĐā'at Mā Ĥawlahu Dhahaba Allāhu Binūrihim Wa Tarakahum Fī žulumātin Lā Yubşirūna

Their example is like the one who lights a fire, so when it illuminates what is around him, God takes away his light and leaves him in the darkness not seeing.

2:20
يَكَادُ الْبَرْقُ يَخْطَفُ أَبْصَارَهُمْ كُلَّمَا أَضَاءَ لَهُمْ مَشَوْا فِيه ِِ وَإِذَا أَظْلَمَ عَلَيْهِمْ قَامُوا وَلَوْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَذَهَبَ بِسَمْعِهِمْ وَأَبْصَارِهِمْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْء ٍ قَدِير ٌ

The lightning nearly snatches their sight, whenever it lights the path they walk in it, and when it becomes dark for them they stand. Had God willed, He would have taken their hearing and their sight; God is capable of all things.

اللَّهُ نُورُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ مَثَلُ نُورِه ِِ كَمِشْكَاة ٍ فِيهَا مِصْبَاح ٌ الْمِصْبَاحُ فِي زُجَاجَة ٍ الزُّجَاجَةُ كَأَنَّهَا كَوْكَب ٌ دُرِّيّ ٌ يُوقَدُ مِنْ شَجَرَة ٍ مُبَارَكَة ٍ زَيْتُونِة ٍ لاَ شَرْقِيَّة ٍ وَلاَ غَرْبِيَّة ٍ يَكَادُ زَيْتُهَا يُضِيءُ وَلَوْ لَمْ تَمْسَسْهُ نَار ٌ نُورٌ عَلَى نُور ٍ يَهْدِي اللَّهُ لِنُورِه ِِ مَنْ يَشَاءُ وَيَضْرِبُ اللَّهُ الأَمْثَالَ لِلنَّاسِ وَاللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيم ٌ
Allāhu Nūru As-Samāwāti Wa Al-'ArĐi Mathalu Nūrihi Kamishkāatin Fīhā Mişbāĥun Al-Mişbāĥu Fī Zujājatin Az-Zujājatu Ka'annahā Kawkabun Durrīyun Yūqadu Min Shajaratin Mubārakatin Zaytūniatin Lā Sharqīyatin Wa Lā Gharbīyatin Yakādu Zaytuhā YuĐī'u Wa Law Lam Tamsas/hu Nārun Nūrun `Alá Nūrin Yahdī Allāhu Linūrihi Man Yashā'u Wa YaĐribu Allāhu Al-'Amthāla Lilnnāsi Wa Allāhu Bikulli Shay'in `Alīmun

God is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The example of His light is like a niche within which there is a lamp, the lamp is encased in a glass, the glass is like a radiant planet, which is lit from a blessed olive tree that is neither of the east nor of the west, its oil nearly gives off light even if not touched by fire. Light upon light, God guides to His light whom He pleases. And God sets forth examples for the people, and God is aware of all things.
