The intensity of the darkness of the night in the twilight of the night (midnight)

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : The twilight of the night is the intensification of its darkness. When does the darkness of the night reach its peak?

Answer : At exactly its midpoint, the darkest point or the darkest moment is the middle of the night, because at midnight the sun is at its farthest distance from the place. The sun is at its farthest from it when it is midnight, because before the midpoint it is close to you from the direction of the west, and after the midpoint it is close to you from the direction of the east, so the farthest point is midnight.
