It is ALLAH who made the Sun to be a Shining Glory, And the Moon to be a light (Of Beauty), And measured out stages for it that you might know the number of years and the count (Of time). In no Way did ALLAH create this , but in truth and righteousness. Thus does he explain his signs in deatail for those who understand. [10:5] - ALLAH makes it clear in the Qur'an, that the Sun shines, and the moon reflects!
