English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ra
And the sun and the moon are brought together,
English - Five Volume Translation
And the sun and the moon are brought together,
Commentary:
The expression, "the sun and the moon are brought together" may signify that the whole solar system will be completely disrupted. Or the words may signify the destruction of the political power of the Arabs and of the Iranian dynasty, the moon being the symbol of the political power of the former and the sun that of the latter. Or the reference may be to the lunar and solar eclipses—a highly unusual phenomenon, which, according to a hadith was to occur in the time of the Promised Mahdi. The hadith is to the following effect: ان لمھدینا اٰیتین لم تکونا منذ خلق السموات و الارض الخ i.e. For our Mahdi there are two signs which have never been witnessed since the time when the heavens and the earth were created, viz. that the moon will be eclipsed on the first night and the sun on the second day in the month of Ramadan(Baihaqi). This meant that the day of the final triumph of Islam and that of the defeat and destruction of the forces of evil will dawn with the Mahdi’s appearance in the world. Strangely enough, both the sun and the moon were eclipsed in the month of Ramadan in 1894 after Ahmad, the Founder of the Ahmadiyya Movement had made the claim that he was the Promised Messiah and Mahdi.
English - Short Commentary Translation
And the sun and the moon are brought together,
The expression, 'the sun and the moon are brought together,' may signify that the whole solar system will be completely disrupted. Or, the verse may signify the destruction of the political power of the Arabs and of the Iranian empire, the moon being the symbol of the political power of the former and the sun that of the latter. Or, the reference may be to the lunar and solar eclipses which, according to a Hadith, were to occur in the time of the Promised Mahdi in the month of Ramadan (Baihaqi), it being quite an unusual natural phenomenon. Strangely enough, both the sun and the moon were eclipsed in the month of Ramadan in 1894 when the Founder of the Ahmadiyya Movement had already made the claim that he was the Promised Messiah and Mahdi.
