The Meaning of Allah the Exalted's Saying: "And the Star"

The Shaykh : Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) says: This sentence is an oath sentence. Is its form the letter waw, ba, or ta?
The student: Waw.

The Shaykh : Waw. The letter most commonly used for oaths is waw. One also swears by ta, as in Allah the Exalted's saying: "Wa-tallaha" means "By Allah." One also frequently swears by ba, as in Allah the Exalted's saying: Allah the Exalted says: Allah the Exalted swore by the star when it descends. What is meant by the star? Is it a specific star or is it general? The correct view is that it is general. It was said that it is the Pleiades, which are the gathered stars known by many people, but the correct view is that it is general.
