یہ اس پیشگوئی کی طرف اشارہ ہے جو رسول کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے ان الفاظ میں فرمائی ہے کہ لَوْ کَانَ الْاِیْمَانُ مُعَلَّـقًا بِالثُّرَیَّا لَنَالَہٗ رَجُلٌ مِّنْ فَارِسَ یعنی اگر ایمان اُڑ کر ثریّا پر بھی چلا جائے گا تو بھی اسے ایک فارسی شخص وہاں سے واپس لے آئے گا۔
An-Najm means, a star; or a stemless plant. But when used as a proper noun it signifies "the Pleiades." The word is also taken by some scholars to signify the gradual revelation of the Qur’an in pieces, and by some other authorities it refers to the Holy Prophet himself. Its plural an-Nujum also means, chiefs of a people, or small states or principalities (Kashshaf, Taj & Ghara’ibul-Qur’an). In view of its different meanings the word An-Najm in the verse may be explained (1) by a well-known saying of the Holy Prophet which is to the effect: 'When spiritual darkness will spread over the entire face of the earth and there will remain nothing of Islam but its name, and of the Qur’an but its letters, and faith will go up to heaven, a man of the Persian descent will bring it back to earth' (Bukhari).

Commentary:
In view of different meanings of the word النجم given under Important Words, the verse may refer (1) to a well-known saying of the Holy Prophet to the effect that when spiritual darkness will spread over the entire face of the earth and there will remain nothing of Islam but its name and of the Quran but its letters and faith will go up to heavens, a man of the Persian descent, will bring it back to earth (Tirmidhi & Bukhari). Or (2) it may signify that the Quranic revelation hears witness to its own truth. Or (3) it may mean that the tender plant of Islam, which now seems to be going down before the strong and adverse winds of opposition that are fiercely blowing against it, would very shortly rise and develop into a mighty tree under whose cool shade great nations would take shelter. Or (4) the verse may mean that as the Arabs are used to determine the course and direction of, and are guided in, their travels by the movements of the stars in the sandy waste of Arabia (16:17), so they would now be led to the goal and end of their spiritual journey by the star par excellence, i.e. the Holy Prophet. (5) The verse may also embody a prophecy about the fall of the ramshackle State of Arabia, a prophecy much more explicitly stated in the verse, "The Hour has drawn nigh and the moon is rent asunder" (54:2).
