Assalam oalaikum
1400 years back, when the Quran was revealed, human beings did not have the faintest idea about the life span of the Sun because science and technology had not developed yet. However, over the recent years science has developed leaps and bound so new facts have come to light. Research shows us that the Sun has been emitting heat since 5 billion years due to the chemical reactions that take place on its surface. At some juncture, these chemical reactions will come to an end. Consequently the Sun will be totally distinguished and life on earth will also come to an end. So mankind has taken 1400 years to probe themselves what the Quran has mentioned in the following verses:
‘And the Sun runs its course for a period determined for it; that is a decree of (Him) the exalted in Might; the All-knowing’. (TMQ -36:38)
‘He created the heavens and earth in truth. He wraps the night over the day and wraps the day over the night and has subjected the sun and the moon, each running (its course) for a specified term. Unquestionable, He is the Exalted in Might’. (TMQ-Surah Az-Zumar-5)
The above mentioned verses give us a fair idea about the predetermined life-span of the Sun and that it will cease to exist one day.
So we find that it took all of 1400 years for mankind to understand the truth which has been mentioned in the Quran explicitly.
(Allah knows best)
