The reading of the the verse 2:187 (Siyam / fasting)
-
Peace Jkhan,
My goal is to share my understanding, I have no power to convince anyone.
Only God can enlighten us.
We must take the time to meditate each verse in order to see clearly later.
Meditation can help to see things clearly in different aspects of our life
I meditated on Nawat's article several days before I decided to share it with you and discuss it.
No worries if we agree on our disagreement.
May God increases our knowledge
God bless
Peace Sister..
Convince doesn't mean that I or you or anyone should make other believe in what is debated and make them guide... No.. No... God will guide.. What I always mean by convince is.. We debate and if we all involved in debate then it is with the willingness we participate.. So what is debated should have meaning with the Quran.... And the questions of other debators should be precisely answered... If one remains on his or her own conviction... So we can deduce that the conviction of her or his is within the context of Quran... We are not here to debate uselessly or to pass time.. While someone exposing and at that time withdraw and say "my understanding is for me and your understanding is for you".. Then no point of arguing... At some point we should stop the same topic of argument with conclusion... Coz God says He clarifies His verses.. And it seems 2183-187 are simple manifest verses... How come I am on one side and you are on another side and others may be in some other side.. Who is right? What is actually God revealed and what Mohamed practiced and what his people practiced calling siyam.. Let's approach that one truth... Escaping saying I am doing what I'm doing is meaningless...
Further... I missed to state below...
God prescribed Siyam and not Sawm...
2183 " O you who have believed, prescibed upon you is fasting (SIYAM) as it was prescribed upon those before you that you may become righteous."God prescribed Siyam... If you confuse it as Sawm... Then better explore... That's why I brought order of revelation. .after prescribing Siyam in verse 2183 all Siyam verses revealed... And not before 2183...
But the word Sawm in chapter 19 is revealed even well before the verse 2183 revealed.... Coz chapter 19 was revealed as 44th sura and chapter 2 in which fasting was prescribed is revealed as 87th Sura....(2196, 492, 589, 595, 5804, 3335 all these Siyam verses revealed after 2183 but)That's order of revelation.... (Sawm in 1926 was revealed well before all above verses and all verses are siyam but 1926 is not siyam but Sawm) In my assumptions order of revelation is precise...
Sawm in 1926 has no connection with Siyam in rest of the quran... Siyam is not Sawm...
Further Maryam didn't say Siyam... We don't vowe a Siyam for God... But we fast (Siyam) for ourselves for our own benefit and to become muttaqun and to get status which we don't know but God promises...
But Maryam vowed a Sawm for Arrahman.. That's the difference... When we vowe there is a commitment between us and God... Fasting is not a vowe at all... -

@ Wakas
"If someone says to you "do X and Y until Z", it is clear Z is the point at which doing X and Y ends. When/after Z occurs there is no more doing X and Y.Do you agree/disagree?"
=> Of course yes..The problem between us i think is about the word "complete/atimmu". For you siyam begins at dawn and for me it must be completed at day time. the word complete implies that something was starting before.Sorry, but you have contradictory positions.
On the one hand you agree (at Z no more X and Y, ergo, a fast has started at point Z) but then say "the word complete implies that something was starting before ". You already admitted (indirectly) it (a fast) has started, so what's the problem?
Your position makes no sense and is contradictory.

Peace,
2184 A few number of days. Whoever of you is ill or traveling, then the same count from different days; and as for those who can do so but with difficulty, they may redeem by feeding the needy. And whoever does good voluntarily, then it is better for him. And if you fast it / waan tasoomoo is better for you if only you knew.
2185 Shahr Ramadhan, in which the Qur'an was sent down as a guide to the people and a clarification of the guidance and the criterion. Those of you who have witnessed alshashahr shall fast it / falyasumu; and whoever is ill or traveling, then the same count from different days. God wants to bring you ease and not to bring you hardship; and so that you may complete the count, and magnify God for what He has guided you to, and that you may be thankful.
When one had witnessed Shahr Ramadhan, what are we doing ?
I asoom, you tasoom / tasoomoo, we nasoom, the action is sawm, the same letters are repeated S W M.
what did this Marie did during the action of sawm, she tasoom (S W M).

Dear Sister....
Don't confuse yourself in the hunt of substantiating your claim with clear Arabic word usage...
Root is same I mentioned in my reply #16... Just coz root doesn't mean that the meaning also will become same...
While forming verb from root.. It may look same... That's how all Arabic words... For example take word salah.. Root is ṣād lām wāw (S L W)..
All noun is not prayer and while forming Verb from root it may look similar but different meaning... Example 339 'Yusalli' here it means (verb) praying... 3343 'Yusalli' here it means (verb) blessing...So 'Sawm' 1926 is same root but different meaning... Most probably being Silent...
Dear sister.. Just once again carefully look the word 'Nadzrathu' in 1926 .. Do you accept it means Vow (pledging or making a solemn promise)... It is a vow even you accept or not.. Take example of another word 'nadzarthu'.. Maryam's mother made in verse 335 "when the wife of 'Imran said, "My Lord, indeed I have pledged (Nadzarthu) to You(God) what is in my womb, consecrated so accept this from me. Indeed, You are the Hearing, the Knowing."
These pledging or solemn promise or vow (Nadzarth) is not at all part of compulsory act in deen.. It is one's own wish willingly and they decide in their own to do something for God.. But whether God accept or not such act is only within God's decision... But once anyone made such solemn promise is not exempted from doing it.. They have to accomplish it... Suppose If I promise to God that I will give 100 poor people with new clothing if I pass the exam... So in case if he passes he has to accomplish it... Coz it is an agreement you made with your Lord.. You can't escape... That's my understanding...So my dear sister... What is prescribed by Allah to perform in 2184 is not a Vow... It's a command of God and not our own option..
Pls try to ponder...
That's all dear..Note if one vows or make a solemn promise to God saying "If I found my lost child, I would fast five days... Then in case she or he found the child she or he should fast five days... People may vow anything making a contact with God.. So it should be accomplished... 767 "They fulfill vows(Nadzar) and fear a Day whose evil will be widespread"

Salam,
Sorry but you will be less confuse if you are concentrated (Let's have a look at my conclusion again) But I can understand that it is not easy because you, as the big majority of muslims, do not undertsand the real difference between sawm and siyam. You canno't be agree with me but at least try to understand my reasoning as you were meFurther explanations

The day can be divided in 2 parts from sunset to dawn (period 1) and from dawn to sunset (period 2).
Agree ? If Yes we can continue -
The MAIN subject of the passage (2-183..187) is about SIYAM.
Agree ? If Yes we can continue.
Now, 2 sentences from quran (Each of these sentences corresponds to one of the periods mentioned above)
- First sentence "And eat and drink until become separate from the thread white from the thread black of dawn." = period 1
2 characteristics
- SIYAM ? YES.
- SAWM ? NO.
- Second sentence ""thumma/Then atimmū/complete l-ṣiyāma/the fast ilā/till al-layli/the night." = period 2
2 characteristics
- SIYAM ? YES.
- SAWM ? YES.
This understanding is logical with Allah words (atimmū/complete). In (2-183...187), SAWM (understanding in this particular context as "not eating and drinking" must be doing DURING the SIYAM period (24 hours) but not all the day.

The definition of siyam in this verse
1926 "So eat and drink and be content. If you see any mortal, then say 'I have vowed an abstinence / sawman for the Almighty, so I will not talk today to any of mankind.'"
1910 He said "My Lord, make for me a sign." He said "Your sign is that you will not speak to the people for three nights consecutively."
341 He said "My Lord, make for me a sign." He said "Your sign is not to speak to the people for three days except by symbol, and remember your Lord greatly, and glorify at dusk and dawn."
Mary and Zachariah refrained from speaking which makes sense when one is retired.
"It has been made permissible for you during the night of siyam".
Does the night include the day as for Zachariah?
The restriction "until the white thread is distinct from the black thread of dawn" concern only to approach your women sexually. That makes sense when one is in retreat in the masjid.
The verse 2185 explains the start of siyam and why it's so important, to magnify God for what He has guided you to.
Concerning Maryam, the event is related to her having the newborn child with her and her being asked about it. So she is advised to say (and that means speaking) that she has vowed to the Rahmaan sawm and therefore that day will not speak to anybody. That continues even when she returns to her people and she does not anser questions about the child, simply points to him. So it is all related to her bein in the situation she was, as a other with newborn or baby, no husband or fathe and it is following devine advise that she does not answer questions because she has vowed thatto the Rahmaan.

Interesting when reading after long time..
But brother Iyyaka in case if you are still around why not explain what is Siyam and Sawm in your understanding...@waqas.. I wish you respond to this thread of Iyyaka which he directed at you...
Anyway... Siyam in my understanding as of now cannot be leaving food and drink... Sister Hourya makes sense.. But.. I have no capacity to debate this since I have realized only but don't have the concrete proof to substantiate to others...
Thank you...

I feel something very strong in his statements... Though failed grasp in the first instance..
Reflected day and night..
You know my fellow believers.. God says in 2189 that Hilal is indication for Haj and stress to enter from front door.. It clearly indicate that Haj begins with new moon and 2197 is clear that Haj is not in a single month but more than three further God says four months are Hurm (restricted).. And God continues in chapter 2 what to perform in when one has taken Haj in his life... So from the new moon it goes on and it is several days.. And then when came to completing stage in verse 2203 it is obvious the ending of Haj is in Ayyamin madudath.. So if Ayyamin madudath is end of haj in a month out of four months then what these Ayyamin madudath is in fact.. Ayyamin madudath cannot be new moon... If you read verses 2203 it is very obvious that Ayyamin madudath is three days... So it obvious that Haj in a particular months starting from new moon and ends in full moon... So if ayyamin madudath is full moon and three days in verse 2203 then what is ayyamin madudath when it comes to Siyam in verse 2184.. Yes.. It is full moon and three days...
Note.. One intelligent person could ask.. Is verse number 2185 and 2187 not enough to fast one whole month (lunar) like conventionally fasting... What is the use of verse 2184 at all... Difference is three days only God's instructions...
And it seems like the verse 2187 is speaking eat and drink until Fajr (clear) .. But it is instruction to eat and drink and enjoy sexual relations since it is allowed then Siyam fall at Fajr don't have sex and complete after three days ila Night... So from Fajr of Full moon until full moon dissapear when it rises at night... All these period (three days) are siyam mainly Aakifun (in devotion).. But allpwed is sex at night but still siyam... Having food and drink is part of life and enjoyment and necessity... No restriction for food and drink.. It seems like it was stated so but in depth if you perceive it is not for and drink but it was indication of beginning time of siyam.. So restriction is only to sex throughout siyam except night...
Yes.. Siyam is 24 hours and continuous throughout visible full moon three days.. During which sex is allowed as mercy at night...
May Allah bless us all believers with true guidance.. If we fault May Allah correct us..
Thank you..

Salam..
Few are privately asking me and previously also asked me the question...
If Quran orders to fast in Full moon three days, does it mean to fast(siyam) every full moon throughout the year?..And further asks if not every full moon, then when exactly?...
Very challenging question but answer is and should be within quran if one wants to enhance his or her status to Muththakun.. Remember mere siyam won't make one to muttaqun.. Read 6153 following Quran itself(straight path) makes one to muttaqun (la'allakum thaththakun) ..
Let me describe my understanding..
First of all in my understanding Siyam is in THE full Moon days that is to say three days..If every month the full moon days are siyam, then verse 2184 is enough for the sake of Siyam since Ayyamin madudath itself the full moon three days regardless which month or which full moon.. . Since Allah has elaborated in addition to 2184 in a specific manner in the verse 2185, it cannot be merely every full Moon days.. It could have beeen if there is no WORD of Ramadan in verse 2185 to deduce it is in every full moon days.. But Ramadhan in the verse indicates that Siyam is not every full moon days but only in one particular full moon days in a calendar year..
Normally months names are specifically placed in a language in anceint times based on seasons or special events or their specific gods etc.. So the months indicate throughout the year that exclusively.. Arabic months also have the same characteristics by its name... It is not part of Quran but part of human necessity that they named them to facilitate their regional values and seasons.. Based on that if we take the area of Jordan and northern Arabian peninsula and gulf of Aqaba of Egypt, the names of months do suit to the seasons and special events etc. ... For me I don't see any difference to Gregorian calendar (solar) with Arabic calender (lunar-now).. I mean to say in my thorough understanding January is absolutely equal to Muharram and identical all other months.. .. Yes it is lunar nowadays but no one calculates 29.5 but 30 is perfect.. So no reason that Lunar calender fall behind.. So it was obvious Lunar-Solar calendar was the one it was used in the anceint times in arabia since the names of months are identical to either seasons or their special events etc.. The names of months should not befool the seasons and events that they have named them.. That should befit. Otherwise simply That's ridiculous...
So ramadhan is undoubtedly identical to the month of September.. Moreover Allah had restricted 4 months with intent and in these months are identical for the purpose of Haj. Aren't they? And they are not be altered.. And they are 10th 11th 12th and 1st month in my comprehensive understanding ... On top of that these four months seasons/climates are perfect for long pilgrimage in the area allocated for it from Ibrahim to Mohamed .. Never neglect the fact that four restricted months are continuos and not isolated months according to wording of Quran..
Moreover.. The usage of words in verse 2185 precise.. As you have noticed at the beginning of verse 2185 it only says Shahr Ramadhan.. Not added AL to Shahr nor to Ramadhan.. But AL is added to shahr later part of the verse for the purpose Siyam..
It is manifest by this that A full Moon in Ramad was revealed Quran.. Full moon has three visible nights which can be claimed as full moon.. But God revealed only in one of those Nights during full Moon.. Not all three nights.. So God rightly used Shahr (a full moon) instead of the Full moon
.. But precisely commanded when it comes to Siyam The Full Moon (AL Shahr) since Ayyamin madudath are three full moon days.. Notice the difference.. Just said Shahr for revelation of Quran since it was one night but used AL shahr since command is to Siyam all the three days of the Full moon of Ramadhan.. Had Allah mentioned AL shahr Ramadhan then it would mean that Quran was first revealed in all three nights of the Full moon in Ramad .. To simplify.. There is a big difference to say for example it was held in a full moon day and to say it was held in the full moon days.. So mere Shahr and AL shahr indicates the contrasting difference..
No one can ever know on which of the full moon day of Ramadhan the Quran was revealed first ever.. Even Prophet Mohamed would not have known which full moon Night it was revealed precisely by looking at the full moon.. Since Full Moon are three nights.. But mohamed knows it was revealed on a full moon night in Ramad but most probably not known was it 13th or 14th or 15th... So God has made it easy for all those who siyam in all three full moon days since one of those was in fact the Night in which Quran was revealed..
Even the grammar suits as it says "whoever witnesses THE Shahr (the full moon/3) fast IT.. It means fast complete full moons.. If God had mentioned "who ever witnesses A full moon (merely Shahr without AL /The) fast IT" ..then definitely would mean just fast one of the full moons.. It means only one day.. How perfect God has used the wording..As accepted conventionally if Ramadhan is a month then in verse 2185 should begin AL Shahr (The month Ramadhan).. Coz precise month... It is manifestly erroneous to word it like " A month(of) Ramadhan in which the Quran was revealed..... "
If Ramadhan was month meant by Allah then in both the places of verses 2185 AL should have been placed before Shahr as AL Shahr..
One would say.. What is wrong saying month of April or month of September.. Why need to add The month of April... Well.. Logic is right but not in all context.. Here verse itself starts with A month (of) Ramadhan... That's weird.. Surely weird.. Every translator forced to add The month of Ramadan so that it makes sense but God has not placed The month..
Reflect well fellow believers.. By the way I hope I answered those who asked privately.Thank you...

Privately asked questions at certain time I answer in publicly so it may bebefit God will for many.. There is no privacy here.. I don't know why some prefer privacy for obvious questions...
Concern for him is.. He says.. I understand that Shahr can mean full moon in verse 2185 and and makes sense that it is three full moon days in Ramadhan... But he needs to know whether is there any other verse which gives Shahr as full moon in Quran.. Well not a bad concern.. I also checked long back.. ASHHUR for me is undoubtedly months . Obviously months not full moon but literally they are full cycle of moon ie 30 days.. Month is based on Moon only according to Quran 105..
936 Indeed, the number of Months (ASH'UR) with Allah is twelve months (Shahr) in the register of Allah the day He created the heavens and the earth; of these, four are sacred. That is the correct religion, so do not wrong yourselves during them. And fight against the disbelievers collectively as they fight against you collectively. And know that Allah is with the righteous .
When we take the verse 936 abd carefully study we can definitely perceive here SHAHR doesn't mean Months or month but it means Full Moon..
The reason is Allah didn't say that in a year 12 months but that is what Allah indeed say.. But the point is Allah has already said that "number of MONTHS (ASH'UR) with Allah is TWELVE /izhnain Ahara (in a year) in the register of Allah... " and needless to say at the end again MONTHS (SHAHR) ..
But here Shahr means Full Moon.. So Allah said.. "indeed the number of MONTHS with Allah is TWELVE full Moon in the register of Allah... So literally there cannot be 13 full moon in a year .. God vehemently deny all sorts of violations in 937..So.. Without any speck of doubt in my understanding here in verse number 936 Shahr means Full Moon and 12 of them in a year ... So months are based on moon cycle and thus a year is formed with twelve full cycle of moon ..
I hope I answered your question and hope it may benefit to others who also have the same question God will.
Thank you. -
Salam...
Little off topic perhaps... But still connected o presume.. Well. I was researching out of curisity whether one can be A MUTHTHAQUN by performing Siyam, well be it skipping food and drink or being devoted etc... Well for me BIG NO...
MITHTHQUN is an ultimate achievement by abiding God's law in everything.. It's a complete package.. When I was little weak in understanding the verse of Siyam as it says LA'ALLAKUM THATHTHAKUN thought that observing Siyam lift a person to the status of MUTHTHAKUN... well as I said.. NO..
Those who are interested to research on this pls go through all verses where LAALLAKUM THATHTHAKUN or LAALLAHUM YATHTHAKUN... so you will definitely perceive that it only means that it may make a person GOD CONCIOUS... But not a person who achieved the status of MUTHTHAQUN... for that a complete life one has to do loads of things...
So anyone who erroneously think that they fasted 30 days skipping food and drink has become MUTHTHQUN then that is their foolish thought... Pls don't miss to check the verses as I said above... I don't mention the verses coz I know only interested people will search so they will search somehow... Use corpus.quran to facilitate your search..Couple of verse I submit but compare all verses for better understanding..
221 "O mankind, worship your Lord, who created you and those before you, that you may become God concious (La'allakum Thaththakun) -
6153 And, , this is My path, which is straight, so follow it; and do not follow ways, for you will be separated from His way. This has He instructed you that you may become God concious (La'allakum thaththakun) .
Thank you...

Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that Zurayq ibn Hayyan, who was in charge of Egypt in the time of al-Walid, Sulayman, and Umar ibn Abd al-'Aziz, mentioned that Umar ibn Abd al- Aziz had written to him saying, "Assess the muslims that you come across and take from what is apparent of their wealth and whatever merchandise is in their charge, one dinar for every forty dinars, and the same proportion from what is less than that down to twenty dinars, and if the amount falls short of that by one third of a dinar then leave it and do not take anything from it. As for the people of the Book that you come across, take from the merchandise in their charge one dinar for every twenty dinars, and the same proportion from what is less than that down to ten dinars, and if the amount falls short by one third of a dinar leave it and do not take anything from it. Give them a receipt for what you have taken from them until the same time next year (الْحَوْلِ)."
Malik said, "The position among us (in Madina) concerning goods which are being managed for trading purposes is that if a man pays zakat on his wealth, and then buys goods with it, whether cloth, slaves or something similar, and then sells them before a year (الْحَوْلُ) has elapsed over them, he does not pay zakat on that wealth until a year (الْحَوْلُ) elapses over it from the day he paid zakat on it. He does not have to pay zakat on any of the goods if he does not sell them for some years (سِنِينَ), and even if he keeps them for a very long time he still only has to pay zakat on them once when he sells them."
Malik said, "The position among us concerning a man who uses gold or silver to buy wheat, dates, or whatever, for trading purposes and keeps it until a year (الْحَوْلُ) has elapsed over it and then sells it, is that he only has to pay zakat on it if and when he sells it, if the price reaches a zakatable amount. This is therefore not the same as the harvest crops that a man reaps from his land, or the dates that he harvests from his palms."
Malik said, "A man who has wealth which he invests in trade, but which does not realise a zakatable profit for him, fixes a month (شَهْرًا) in the year (السَّنَةِ) when he takes stock of what goods he has for trading, and counts the gold and silver that he has in ready money, and if all of it comes to a zakatable amount he pays zakat on it."
Malik said, "The position is the same for muslims who trade and muslims who do not. They only have to pay zakat once in any one year (فِي كُلِّ عَامٍ), whether they trade in that year or not."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that Zurayq ibn Hayyan, who was in charge of Egypt in the time of al-Walid, Sulayman, and Umar ibn Abd al-'Aziz, mentioned that Umar ibn Abd al- Aziz had written to him saying, "Assess the muslims that you come across and take from what is apparent of their wealth and whatever merchandise is in their charge, one dinar for every forty dinars, and the same proportion from what is less than that down to twenty dinars, and if the amount falls short of that by one third of a dinar then leave it and do not take anything from it. As for the people of the Book that you come across, take from the merchandise in their charge one dinar for every twenty dinars, and the same proportion from what is less than that down to ten dinars, and if the amount falls short by one third of a dinar leave it and do not take anything from it. Give them a receipt for what you have taken from them until the same time next year (الْحَوْلِ)."
Malik said, "The position among us (in Madina) concerning goods which are being managed for trading purposes is that if a man pays zakat on his wealth, and then buys goods with it, whether cloth, slaves or something similar, and then sells them before a year (الْحَوْلُ) has elapsed over them, he does not pay zakat on that wealth until a year (الْحَوْلُ) elapses over it from the day he paid zakat on it. He does not have to pay zakat on any of the goods if he does not sell them for some years (سِنِينَ), and even if he keeps them for a very long time he still only has to pay zakat on them once when he sells them."
Malik said, "The position among us concerning a man who uses gold or silver to buy wheat, dates, or whatever, for trading purposes and keeps it until a year (الْحَوْلُ) has elapsed over it and then sells it, is that he only has to pay zakat on it if and when he sells it, if the price reaches a zakatable amount. This is therefore not the same as the harvest crops that a man reaps from his land, or the dates that he harvests from his palms."
Malik said, "A man who has wealth which he invests in trade, but which does not realise a zakatable profit for him, fixes a month (شَهْرًا) in the year (السَّنَةِ) when he takes stock of what goods he has for trading, and counts the gold and silver that he has in ready money, and if all of it comes to a zakatable amount he pays zakat on it."
Malik said, "The position is the same for muslims who trade and muslims who do not. They only have to pay zakat once in any one year (فِي كُلِّ عَامٍ), whether they trade in that year or not."

USC-MSA web (English) reference Book 17, Hadith 20
Arabic reference Book 17, Hadith 599Salam...
Thank you brother..Well... You have not given any concrete evidence to claim that YEARS ARE SOLAR... just your wording... It won't work out in that manner.. So to substantiate it you are just merely giving the difference or rather meaning of Aam, Sana etc.. on top of that bringing considerable amount of Hadiths to equalise Quranic meNing of words .. What logic is this? So is that what you prove that Years are solar.. In my understanding that's sheer baseless and nonsensical...
Yes.. We all know day and night deduce a Day in general.. So we know tine is moving.. Sun plays the role to bring day and night which is literally a day... That no one can deny... But we should not neglect the fact that God has created the Moon as well.. And He didn't let the Moon full moon throughout the year but He assigned for it phases and it is typically the calendar for anyone. Yes.. I am aware God is precise in His verses..
When you look at verse 105 it teaches us that Moon has a function other than its many other function it has. It indicates or makes us know the count of Years.. Well that's what verse 1712 also says.. So is that a contradiction? No..
It really amazes that both gives same counting.. That is to say one typical calendar .. 30 days a month and 360 days a year..If we don't take it thus, then God's statement that "A day with God is like thousand years of what we count" is bit bizzare... So it will end up as which one..is it 354/5 or 360 or 365/6...
Literally in 1000 years there is roughly 31 years difference if taken as 354 days calendar.. So not thousand but 1031 .. So what exactly God meant by what we count... So if God said 1000 years it is 1000 only.. No less no more.. Right?So Moon is the one assigned naturally to count month and thus Years.. 30X12 =360.. This is real counting.. And that was what ancient people practiced widely for ages so did Nuh to many a prophets... Yes Egyptians changed it to 365 days for a fancy reason of Nut.. Then Greeks followed immediately ... I don't mind.. Let it be..
That's perfect within Quran..
On top of that... Word AAM and SANA... not gonna decide solar or lunar... That's so weird..
Let me give my understanding of both AAM and SANA within quran ...
As far as I researched... AAM = YEAR but from the beginning.. That is to say like a calendar for example Jan to Dec.. Or in arabic Muharram to Haj...
..
On the other hand SANA = YEAR but any point of time.. That is to say March 2022 to Feb 2023 complete year but any given time... If you read all verses if you are good enough you will perceive it in sha Allah...
But one would then question what about the verse in which Nuh was mentioned in which 1000 Sana and 50 AAM is mentioned... These kind of difficult verses either we leave it as Ghaib or those who can reflect can reflect with context and scenario.. As far as I understand Nuh lived 1000 years / SANA... But He lived 50 AAM after great deluge.. Coz 50 AAM was beginning of New world new counting from all over.. So instead of Sana God placed AAM rightly.. But thousand years... Further simply SANA is like for example English alphabet H to G.. But AAM is A - Z...Anyways this not what I wanted to explain but what I wanted to explain is that Years counted based on phases of Moon while day and night makes a complete Day... That's Quran..
Note if you can understand Quran meaning through hadith then that would be the worst understanding ever one could get... Do it if you are satisfied... Hadiths are formed after Quran.. Dictionaries are formed with amalgamation of old and new meaning of words . .. But Quran is unique and reach for guidance from Allah. . That's my way.. If anyone happy to look for hadiths to get the meaning of particular verse if Quran then do it . Let's hope you get guided...

Peace...
Just bcoz you say it doesn't work means that it is true.. Just speak with logic and within Quran.. Just placing Arabic Quran KNE side your translation on the other won't become things clear... Ensure to make sense by what you write... I mean it...
Hadith have many words for years you said... So let it be... Did I say No...? Concentrate on Quran... So did you say according to hadith that YEAR IS SOLAR... perhaps you are ..
Meanwhile your statemnt Quran is Hadith... Well Hadith is NARATION... so every NARATION has an author or for that matter for every statement there is an author... Author of Quran is Allah.. That is to say narrated by God.. So it is Hadith from Allah... It is not any fabricated Hadith like what you have brought to compare the verses of God with them so that we can get meaning of God's verses throught hadiths of people... As if God doesn't know language of Arabic so you reach the Hadith references to get what God has said in His book.. That's my perception is sheer shame...
May God guide those intention is pure... Don't just say YEAR IS SOLAR as if you have evidence from Quran... If you have I won't drag you this far... Anyway thank you... Reflect honestly if you love the life of hereafter...

hadith can provide insights into meanings of Arabic words help understand nuances and subtleties across contexts and gave examples of calculations and timings that need the sun, etc.
Quran for instance, "sana (سَنَةً)" known duration, "aam (عَامًا)" specific year, "sinin (سِنِينَ)" plural sequence or to a variable of time.
pertaining to topic and to summarize
Sawm (صَوْم)
”Fasting is a shield with which a servant protects himself from the Fire." (Narrated by Ahmad)Siyam (صِيَام)
”Allah said 'All the deeds of Adam's sons (people) are for them, except fasting which is for Me, and I will give the reward for it.'" (Narrated by Bukhari)Saum (صَوْمًا)
”The Prophet (peace be upon him) said 'Fasting is a shield, so when one of you is fasting, he should not engage in sexual intercourse or behave foolishly. If someone insults him or fights him, he should say 'I am fasting.'” Narrated by Bukhari and Muslim)example words used together include month
“The Prophet (peace be upon him) said 'The most beloved deeds to Allah are those that are consistent even if they are small. Siyam on Mondays and Thursdays and fasting (saum) three days of every month are considered consistent deeds.'" (Narrated by Tirmidhi)
Arabic "قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَحَبُّ الأَعْمَالِ إِلَى اللهِ تَعَالَى الدَّائِمُونَ وَإِنْ قَلُّوا، فَصِيَامُ يَوْمَ الاِثْنَيْنِ وَالْخَمِيسِ، وَصِيَامُ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ مِنْ كُلِّ شَهْرٍ دَائِمٌ."
You don’t have to believe in hadith (not the point) rather study the words being used therein, same with inscriptions or receipts for sheep etc.
