The real purpose of creating stars (including shooting
stars) is as Allaah تعالى says:
{It is He Who has set the
stars for you, so that you may guide your course with their help through the
darkness of the land and the sea.} [Surah al-An`aam (6): 97]
{And indeed We have
adorned the nearest heaven with lamps, and We have made such lamps (as)
missiles to drive away the Shayaateen (devils)…} [Surah al-Mulk
(67): 5]
Imaam Al-Bukhaaree رحمه الله recorded in his Saheeh that Qataadah رحمه الله said: “Allaah created the stars for three purposes: (1) As
ornaments of the heavens; (2) As missiles against the devils; (3) As signposts
for the guidance of travelers. Whoever interprets otherwise is mistaken. Such a
person is to lose his reward (on the Day of Resurrection), and takes upon himself
that which is outside his knowledge.”
