(TA.) As nwr is a convenience of the pious in the present world and the world to come, it is said in the Kur, [lvii. 13,] AunoZuruwnaA naqotabiso mino nuwrikumo [ Wait ye for us that we may take of your light ]. (B.) [See also ZulamopN .] ― -b2- It is also applied to Mohammad: (T, M, K:) it is said by Aboo-Is-hak to be so applied in the Kur, v. 18. (T.) ― -b3- And That which manifests things, (K, TA,) and shows to the eyes their true or real state: and therefore Aln~uwr is applied in the Kur, vii. 156, to (tropical:) that [ revelation ] which the Prophet brought. (TA.) ― -b4- Aln~uwru is also one of the names of God; meaning, accord. to IAth, He by whose light the obscure in perception sees, and by whose guidance the erring is directed aright: or the Manifest, by whom is every manifestation. And A^all~`hu nuwru Als~am`waAti waA@loA^aroDi [in the Kur, xxiv. 35,] means God is the enlightener of the heavens and of the earth: like as fulaAnN giyaAvunaA means mugiyvunaA : (TA:) or, as some say, the right director of the inhabitants of the heavens and of the inhabitants of the earth. (T.) ― -b5- See also naArN , last signification.
