: 14551: Awe: 2: Narrated by al-Hakim: (2/399). He said: "This is a hadith with an authentic chain of transmission, and they [al-Bukhari and Muslim] did not record it. Al-Dhahabi agreed with him."

2594: 14557: His light: 1: The words of the Most High: "The likeness of His light," meaning: the attribute of His proofs which He casts into the heart of the believer, and the proofs are called light. Allah the Most High has called His Book light, saying: "And We have sent down to you a clear light," and He has called His Prophet light, saying: "There has come to you from Allah a light and a clear Book." This is because the Book guides and clarifies, and likewise the Messenger.

2597: 14582: Brilliant: 1: The words of the Most High: "as if it were a brilliant star," meaning: in illumination and brightness. This admits two meanings: either that it is such in itself due to its purity and the excellence of its substance—and this interpretation is more eloquent in accounting for the light. Al-Dahhak said: The brilliant star is Venus.

2599: 14596: Western: 1: The words of the Most High: "neither of the east nor of the west." Scholars differed regarding the words of the Most High: "neither of the east nor of the west." Ibn 'Abbas, 'Ikrimah, Qatadah, and others said: The eastern one is that which the sun reaches when it rises, and it does not reach it when it sets, because it has a covering.
