Is the alternation of night and day due to the Earth's orbit around the Sun, with the Sun being stationary?

The student: ... they acknowledge that it is not possible... to accept their claim... the Sun...

The Shaykh : Yes, we say: We do not accept that the alternation of night and day is due to the Earth's orbit; rather, we say it is due to the Sun's rising over the Earth.
The student: And it does not prevent the Lawgiver... the Earth...

The Shaykh : It does not prevent it, but if it were established that we had tangible, sensory evidence that the alternation of night and day is due to the Earth's rotation, we would say so, and the attribution of these actions to the Sun would be according to how a person perceives it.
The student: They say the Sun is stationary...

The Shaykh : No, no, I say, no, do they say: Does the Sun orbit in the sky, or does it orbit around itself?
The student: The Sun's rotation... an annual orbit

The Shaykh : Well, in any case, what matters to us is the discussion from the perspective of the Qur'an. Now, if we read [Surat al-Kahf: 17], this contains four actions, all of which are attributed to the Sun. The principle is that actions attributed to a thing are performed by it. So the Sun is what rises. They say: No, the Sun does not rise over us; we are the ones who rise over it due to the Earth's rotation. For example, the light bulb above my hand, like the surface of the hand facing it, the Sun is rising, and then you say like this, the Sun is setting, meaning we have set relative to the Sun, and we have risen over it. We say: If this is established with absolute certainty, without doubt, then the Qur'an never contradicts sensory perception, and the actions attributed to the Sun are interpreted according to the observer's perception. Yes, that is right.
