৪৭. তিনিই তো তোমাদের জন্যে রাত্রিকে করেছেন আবরণ, নিদ্রাকে বিশ্রাম এবং দিনকে করেছেন বাইরে গমনের জন্যে।
৪৮. তিনিই স্বীয় রহমতের প্রাক্কালে বাতাসকে সুসংবাদবাহীরূপে প্রেরণ করেন। এবং আমি আকাশ থেকে পবিত্রতা অর্জনের জন্যে পানি বর্ষণ করি।
Ayat 47. And it is Allah Who makes the night a covering for
you, and the sleep (as) repose, and makes the day Nushur (i.e. getting up
and going about here and there for daily work, etc. after one's sleep at night
or like resurrection after one's death).
Ayat 48. And it is Allah Who sends the winds as heralds of
glad tidings, going before His Mercy (rain), and We send down pure water from
the sky,
[Tafseer] of Ayat 47.
And
He it is Who makes the Night as a Robe for you, and Sleep as Repose, and makes
the Day (as it were) a Resurrection. Here
the symbolism presents a fresh point of view. It is still a contrast between
Light and Shade; but the shade of Night is as a Robe to cover and screen us and
give us Repose from activity; and the Light of Day is for striving, work,
activity. Or again, the Night is like Death, our temporary Death before
Judgment, the time during which our senses are sealed in Sleep; and the Day is
like the renewal of Life at the Resurrection. Tafseer of Ayat 48.
And
He it is Who sends the winds as heralds of glad tidings, going before His mercy,
and We send down pure water from the sky, The
Winds are heralds of Joy, ushering in Rain, which is one form of Allah's Mercy.
Again, the symbolism presents a fresh point of view. Heat (which is connected
with light) sets up currents in the atmosphere, besides sucking up moisture from
the seas, and distributing it by means of Winds over wide surfaces of the earth.
In the physical world we know the beneficent action of heat on life, and by
contrast, we also know how intolerable high temperatures may become, and how the
cloud-bearing Winds come as welcome heralds of rain. Rain water (in pure air) is
not only pure water distilled in air and sky, but it is the best purifying and
sanitizing agent on the largest scale known to us.
Hazrat Huzaifah
(May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Whenever the Messenger of Allah 
[SAWW](PBUH) lay down for sleep at night, he
would place his (right) hand under his (right) cheek and supplicate: "Bismika
Allahumma amutu wa ahya [O Allah, with Your Name will I die and live (wake
up)].'' And when he woke up, he would supplicate: "Al-hamdu lillahil-ladhi
ahyana ba`da ma amatana, wa ilaihin-nushur (All praise is due to Allah, Who has
brought us back to life after He has caused us to die, and to Him is the
return).'' [Al-Bukhari Book 01, Chapter 04, Hadith #
247].
