Respect for Nature's Pattern/Course; Seeking Knowledge; Asking Questions; Following Instructions/Orders of Allah SWT

In this hadith narrated by Abu Dharr, the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was teaching him about the sun and its movements. He asked Abu Dharr if he knew where it went after setting in the evening. To this question Abu Dharr replied that only Allah and His Apostle know best. The Prophet ﷺ then explained that it goes to ask permission to prostrate and is allowed before returning whence it came from in the west. He then recited a verse from Surah Yaseen which states that “And the sun runs on its fixed course” as recited by Abdullah. This hadith teaches us that everything in nature follows a set pattern or course determined by Allah SWT which should be respected and followed accordingly. It also teaches us to always seek knowledge even if we do not understand something at first glance as we can learn more through asking questions like what Abu Dharr did when he asked for clarification on what he did not understand regarding where does the sun go after setting?
