Sahih al-Bukhari 7141 (Book 97, Hadith 52)
“O Abu Dharr! Do you know where this (sun) goes?” I said, “Allah and His Apostle know best.” He
said, “It goes and asks permission to prostrate, and it is allowed, and (one day) it, as if being ordered
to return whence it came, then it will rise from the west.” Then the Prophet (ﷺ) recited, “That: “And the
sun runs on its fixed course (for a term decreed),” (36.38) as it is recited by `Abdullah.
