Islamic Heritage Month
Introduction
Throughout the ages, Muslims have looked up to the heavens for both spiritual and secular purposes. The very religion of Islam has been the motivation behind this endeavor of its followers. The Holy Quran, time and again urges the believers to ponder over the heavenly bodies as signs:

وَ سَخَّرَ لَکُمُ الَّیۡلَ وَ النَّہَارَ ۙ وَ الشَّمۡسَ وَ الۡقَمَرَ ؕ وَ النُّجُوۡمُ مُسَخَّرٰتٌۢ بِاَمۡرِہٖ ؕ اِنَّ فِیۡ ذٰلِکَ لَاٰیٰتٍ لِّقَوۡمٍ یَّعۡقِلُوۡنَ
And [a]He has pressed into service for you the night and the day, and the sun and the moon; and the stars too have been pressed into service by His command. Surely, in that are Signs for a people who make use of their reason. (16:13)
