In 99.99%+ of the known cases, planets would be illuminated objects. For a planet to be luminous it would need to provide a source of light beyond reflected light. In theory there might be a planet or two out there that could provide its own light. A few planets in our solar system (Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and possibly Neptune) are known to generate some lightning storms, but those are irregular, localized, and usually low enough in the atmosphere that they don't provide much light visible from the surface. A recently formed planet might glow hot enough to put out a little bit of light, but probably not very much even if it were covered in magma.
