The moon doesn't shine by itself.
The light from the sun is reflected off it.
A bit like a mirror about with a less reflective surface. If the moon were covered in ice for example, much more light would be reflected due to the albedo of ice.
Enceladus, a moon of Saturn, has one of the highest known albedos of any body in the Solar system, with 99% of EM radiation reflected. Another notable high-albedo body is Eris, with an albedo of 0.96
Our moon how is around is around 0.12, which is why the reflection does not give off too much light.
