salam bachton ,
the word " manazil / stages or phases " is only used for the moon in the verse 105
105 ( It is He who made the sun a shining light and the moon a derived light and determined for it stages - that you may know the number of years and account . Allah has not created this except in truth. He details the signs for a people who know)
salam wakas,
10.5. Huwa allathee jaAAala alshshamsa diyaan waalqamara nooran waqaddarahu manazila .......
diyaan = masculin
nooran = masculin
hu= masculin
In the end this is neither the Moon nor the Sun which is used to measure, but the light that they emit (Sun) or reflected (Moon), such as the phases of the Moon the Moon and as the light of day for the Sun, therefore the 'hu' male tells us about the male 'light'?
translate in french
Au final ce n?est ni la lune ni le soleil qui sert ? la mesure, mais la lumi?re qu?ils ?mettent (soleil) ou refl?t(lune), comme celle des phases lunaire pour la lune et comme la lumi?re du jour pour le soleil, donc le ? hu ? masculin nous parle de la ? lumi?re ?masculin ???

The sun and the moon are a one united mechanism , but the sun it self in its orbits is not mentioned in the quran to be a tool to determine years and counts , the tool for this is the moon only using indirectly the reflected light of the sun at dark ( night ) ( they are one unified mechanism , but we use only the moon to witness the years and the count )
As for 127
- 17 - 12
1712 (And We have made the night and day two signs, and We erased the sign of the night and made the sign of the day visible that you may seek bounty from your Lord and may know the number of years and the account . And everything We have set out in detail.)
This verse is mentioning that allaah has mad the sign of the day/light visible because if the sign of the day wasn't visible you could not distinguish between day/light and the night so you cant make any count because you can't know the concept of one full day ( night + daylight) ...with no light visible mobasser , to distinguish between night and day there would be no way to count ...imagine the day is all night with no daylight you will make no difference as how many days passed and how many left , you see the point ? the daylight role from the sun is to distinguish between night and daylight so we can distinguish between days so we can count , you can count by that system only without the moon but you'll never know exactly when the year has finished , also it's very hard and useless that someone use the tool of the day to count 60 days or 40 nights , the easiest and the tool designed for that is the Moon by its stages , also the count of the years is practical through the count of the numbers of months ( full moon to the next full moon ) , and the qur'an told us that they are twelve 12 .
This verse is not pointing at all that we should use the sun as a tool to know the count and the years , but the sun itself is indirectly used by the swap of night and daylight . so the only tool to be used for the count and the years is the moon stages , the sun is already withing that mechanism

Moon stages to be used to determin number of days so number of months number of year...withouth the sun it would be impoosible to distinguish between naight and daylight so the count become impossible as it will be a expended monotone state "sardmad "
- 28 - 71
2871 ( Say, "Have you considered if Allah should make for you the night continuous until the Day of Resurrection, what other than Allah could bring you light ( diaA )? Then will you not hear?"
The light (diaA ) from the sun is used to distinguish between night and daylight so we can start to count using the moon , without the light of the sun the tool of the moon is useless because the moon is in need of the light ( diaA ) to be visible , it's the Sun who make the moon mechanism visible so can used it for the counting , so the sun is indirectly used in the mechanism of the moon and that is what was meant in 1712 . notice that is the DiaA which is used in 105 not the sun as it's pointing to the light itself , it is pointing to the concept of making things visible and distinguishable
