Glowing (not blinking) white light that moving fast (equal to commerical plane)

As I was returning home after the morning prayer (Muslim) at 5:00 AM, I noticed a bright white light (dot) in the sky. The light was very bright and not blinking, moving swiftly with an altitude roughly equal to that of a commercial plane heading south from the west. It was early in the morning, and everything around me was so quiet. The object emitted no sound and moved silently. I observed the light object until it vanished behind the clouds.

My first thought when I saw that light was that it might be a plane, so I checked a couple of live plane tracking websites to make sure. I have been accustomed to observing the sky for years and am confident in distinguishing between planes, satellites, and stars, and I am certain of my ability to calculate the distance to the horizon accurately. After thorough cross-checking, I realized that the light object wasn't a commercial plane, military plane, satellite, or drone, and it flew as high as the clouds.

The object moving from west and heading to south. The distance of journey covered by the object (according to my rough calculation) is about 4 kilometers or more
