Tadabur on ayah 1 of surah An - Najm: 'By the star when it descends'. In this ayah ALLAH SWT swears by descending of star,the phenomena of which ALLAH SWT takes oath is the huge and extremely unique event. The fading of star can also means the dying or death of star. The descending or the fading of stars is really a extremely big event that occurs in space. Massive stars die suddenly in powerful explosions known as supernovas, blasting gas, dust, and energy out in all directions as they collapse to form tiny neutron stars or black holes. The gas and dust expelled by dying stars eventually combines with the remains of others to form new stars, planets, and moons.SUBHANALLAH! The stars twinkle in the night sky because of the effects of our atmosphere. When starlight enters our atmosphere it is affected by winds in the atmosphere and by areas with different temperatures and densities. This causes the light from the star to twinkle when seen from the ground.ALLAHU AKBAR! For stars, it's a balance between the radiation pressure of their fuel-burning cores pushing outward, and their gravity pulling inward. When stars run out of fuel, gravity wins this struggle, and the star begins to collapse into black hole, neutron star, or white dwarf depending on its size.SUBHANALLAH! Black holes are regions in space where an enormous amount of mass is packed into a tiny volume. This creates a gravitational pull so strong that not even light can escape. They are created when giant stars collapse, and perhaps by other methods that are still unknown.ALLAHU AKBAR KABIRAH! Some low-mass stars will shine for trillions of years-longer than the universe has currently existed - while some massive stars will live for only a few million years.ALLAHU AKBAR! Supernovae(the dead star) have been seen by the naked eye throughout human history. These are the death throes of stars, and are extremely bright. So not only is the light coming from the star just as it dies, but it also might be substantially farther away than most stars.SUBHANALLAH! If you were to stand just outside the event horizon of Sagittarius A*, and you stood there for one minute, 700 years would pass because time passes so much slower in the gravitational field there than it does on Earth.' Some have suggested that black holes could be used for time

travel.It

means that time passes out too slowly inside the gravitational field of black hole(a whirl pool formed by the death of stars).SUBHANALLAH! As ALLAH SWT gives death the giant stars so as HE SWT can give death to us ,so we should submit to the will of ALLAH SWT the Master of heavens and the earth , follow HIS SWT commandments so that we can be forgiven. MAY ALLAH SWT guides us to the straight path.AMEEN! Regards:Ayesha Zafar
