Fusion makes heat. Heat makes light. The light is visible even at vast distances.

it is becos the intensity of light from sun begins to decrease in the evening due to greater scattering of its light by the atmosphere.
Actually the stars shine throughout the day but are not visible due their low intensity compared to sun.if both the sun and stars are at the same distance then we wouldn't be able to see the sun because stars are many times brighter than the sun

Stars are burning gases with atomic reaction. So they are shining . But we cant see them in daily light and under the city lights.
