Then I swear by the setting of the stars

Translation: Sahih International
Maulana’s commentary · Tazkirul Quran

The word ‘mawaqi’ is the plural of ‘mauqa’a’. Its meaning is the place of falling. Here, the mawaqi of stars probably means the orbits of stars. In this universe, there are countless big stars. They are revolving in their respective orbits with extreme precision.
