I don’t know if you are familiar with the Sufi people? Sometimes called the whirling dervishes, for the dancing? They are an offshoot of Islam. (being pulled into the dance is probably the single most amazing thing that has and ever will happen to me. Also one of the most tiring!).
They greet the sunrise every morning with a flat statement - “The sun is not God.” Yet they do greet the sunrise, even so.
It’s just such a common thing, sun worship, that there must be a reason. :)
