25:47
And He it is Who makes the Night as a Robe for you, and Sleep as Repose, and makes the Day(as it were) a Resurrection.
The following excerpt is taken from “In the Shade of the Quran” by Syed Qutb al isra (sura 17) pg. 109- 110:
The succession of day and night reflects a universal law that influences numerous dimensions of human life. This natural cycle is closely connected with human efforts to earn a livelihood, as well as with the measurement of time and systems of calculation. It also relates to the moral dimension of human existence, including the good and evil actions individuals perform and the consequences they ultimately face for those deeds. In this framework, the outcomes associated with following guidance or falling into error are linked to the principle of individual responsibility, whereby each person is accountable only for their own actions.
Furthermore, this universal order is associated with the divine principle that punishment is not imposed upon a people until messengers have been sent to convey guidance. It also relates to the broader law governing the decline and destruction of communities, which occurs only after the influential or affluent members of those societies engage in serious wrongdoing. Likewise, the same system encompasses the differing outcomes for those who pursue the pleasures of worldly life and those who seek the rewards of the hereafter, as well as the provisions granted to each in both realms. These interconnected realities operate within a structured system governed by consistent and immutable laws, indicating that events in the universe do not occur randomly but according to an ordered and purposeful design.
