The night poured down upon the small mountains & covered them with darkness." IV. Al-Sudfa "The commingling of light & darkness. Meaning the ‘light’ or ‘the darkness’; or the darkness and the light are called by one and the same name because each of them comes upon the other". V.

The time of the breathing of the dawn." VIII. Al-Fajr Al-Katheb False dawn. "That which rises without extending laterally. Which appears black presenting itself like an obstacle." IX. Al-Fajr Al-Saadeq True dawn. "That which appears rising, and fills the horizon with its whiteness. The day commences.".
