The sun and the moon follow a reckoning they move according to a strict calculation
Ibn Abbas Commentary
(The sun and the moon are made punctual) their orbits are measured; and it is also said that this means: they are suspended half way between heaven and earth; and it is also said that this means: they both will be taken to task and have a lifespan like the lifespan of human beings.
