Question:
And regarding this matter, is it correct to say that the negation particle in the saying of Allah the Exalted, “There is no increase in the sun,” is…?
Answer:
The *kaaf* is part of the speech of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). We do not say anything about it other than that it is from the speech of Allah. The reliable among the exegetes say that it came to affirm the negation. Accordingly, it is not a metaphor; it is a literal truth, because affirmation is one of the styles of the Arabic language.
