Commentary
And when the [tarq] is mentioned, it is referred to without specifying a star. He first made it ambiguous, then he magnified the one he swore by with his saying: "And what can make you know?" This means: He has informed you, O most honorable of our creation, blessings and peace be upon him, even if you attempted to know that and exerted yourself in searching for it, "What is the tarq?"
