Where does the Sun go after it sets?
The previous verses spoke of how land, pertaining to place (Makān) is under the full power and control of Allah as He resurrects it from a state of barrenness to bring out lush green shoots and leaves and then vibrant fruits of different kinds.

A cursory glance at the movie industry will reveal that for many people the subject of the end of times, resurrection and life after death makes a great…
