Cosmology And The Koran. Geocentric?

As for the night, I can understand the concept of night is not possible with the creation of day. However how is one to precede the other as implied in the verse. Day is associated when a side of the earth is facing the sun, not the approach of sunlight otherwise an eclipse can be thought of as night but its is not. What I am missing here is that is a solar eclipse visible from every point facing the sun or is the sun eclipsed in only a few regions? If that be the case, then it makes more sense.

I think what I meant is the use of the word overlay for SAABIQ would be ambiguous. Day does not overlay the night in the sense that they happen on opposite sides of the earth. The earths revolution is responsible for exposing either half the earth for its experience of either day or night.

The events which we call night or day are mutually exclusive otherwise people could mistake a solar eclipse for a night.
