Why does the Quran say The moon is Light?

❓ #Question 

🚹A member:
What is the meaning noor??
Is it light or derived light??

But Moon not emits light
Quran says moon is a light in 10:5

📝 Answer: Quran 10:5

📖 «جَعَلَ الشَّمْسَ ضِیاءً وَ الْقَمَرَ نُوراً»
"It is He who made the sun a shining light and the moon a derived light.."

🌞The word used after Sun is= Ziyaa' , ضِیاءً
🌓The word used after Moon is= Noora , نُوراً

"Ziyaa'" is such light that it is from the object itself, like the sun. And the word "Noor" is the radiation it receives from other than itself; Like the moon. And the word of God is carried on these meanings.

In theTafseer Nimouna, Regarding the difference between Zia and Noor,  we read: "God made the sun the source of production of light, while the light of the moon is acquired, and originates from the sun. This difference seems more correct according to some verses of the Qur'an; Because in Surah Nooh we read:
«وَجَعَلَ الْقَمَرَ فيهِنَّ نُورًا وَعَعَلَعَلَ الشَّمْسَ سِراجاً [Noah / 16]
He has made the moon a light in the heavens, and the sun a shining lamp. 
And in Surah Al-Furqan we read:
«وَ جَعَلَ فیها سِراجاً وَ قَمَراً مُنیراً[فرقان/۶۱]
"And in the midst of it He created a bright lamp and a shining moon!" 
Considering that the "seraj" (lamp 💡) emits light from itself and is the source of light, and the sun is likened to the "Sera j"💡 in the above two verses, it becomes clear that in the verses under discussion, this difference is very appropriate.

💬Considering the probability that the Quran isn't from God, and is written by an uneducated man from among the desert of Arabia where lived the most savage nation of 1400 years ago, far from any source of education.  there were only 17men in the whole land of Arabia who could read and write and that was the highest degree of the education there, how could suddenly such words of science pop up among such society out of nowhere?  and if Quran is not sent from God, then it must have been a normal process of making it right? Why is nowhere else such a sample found?
