Sun Islamic Names — Muslim Names Meaning Sun & Sunlight
The sun is described in the Quran as one of Allah's greatest signs: "And He made the sun a lamp" (Surah Nuh, 71:16). The Quran has a Surah called Ash-Shams (The Sun), which opens with a series of oaths by the sun and its brightness. In classical Arabic poetry — which Islamic culture absorbed and transformed — the beloved was consistently compared to the sun for its life-giving warmth, its beauty, and its ability to illuminate everything around it.
