IIRC, the Sun was the deity when monotheism was first invented, by Aknarten, the ancient Egyption Pharoah.

Actually there are a lot more references in terms of definitions and declarations in Qu'ran... One belief, and I subscribe to it as a matter of faith, is by definition God's creation is not limited in time and space and is a continuous process.

Any case, following here are some of the references.. I don't know the details and context of when these were revealed but I like the last one on the list.. Looks like some one is getting a bit fresh with God.. :o)

[al-An`am 6:101] The Originator of the heavens and the earth! How can He have a child, when there is for Him no consort, when He created all things and is Aware of all things ?

[al-An`am 6:102.13] Such is Allah, your Lord. There is no God save Him, the Creator of all things, so worship Him. And He taketh care of all things.

[al-Hijr 15:85] We created not the heavens and the earth and all that is between them save with truth, and lo! the Hour is surely coming. So forgive, (O Muhammad), with a gracious forgiveness.

[al-Fatir 35:1.6] Praise be to Allah, the Creator of the heavens and the earth, Who appointeth the angels messengers having wings two, three and four. He multiplieth in creation what He will. Lo! Allah is Able to do all things.

[al-Fatir 35:3.11] O mankind! Remember Allah's grace toward you! Is there any creator other than Allah who provideth for you from the sky and the earth ? There is no God save Him. Whither then are ye turned ?

[Ya Sin 36:82] But His command, when He intendeth a thing, is only that He saith unto it: Be! and it is.

[Ya Sin 36:83] Therefor Glory be to Him in Whose hand is the dominion over all things! Unto Him ye will be brought back.

[az-Zumar 39:62.3] Allah is Creator of all things, and He is Guardian over all things.

[al-Waqi`ah 56:59.9] Do ye create it or are We the Creator ?
