Stars can spin faster or slower than the Sun. What's the fastest that's ever been discovered, and what's the fastest speed you can have before they tear themselves apart? Everything in the Universe is spinning. Spinning planets and their spinning moons orbit around spinning stars, which orbit spinning galaxies. It's spinning all the way down.
Consider that fiery ball in the sky, the Sun. Like all stars, our Sun rotates on its axis. You can't tell because staring at the Sun long enough will permanently damage your eyeballs. Instead you can use a special purpose solar telescope to observe sunspots and other features on the surface of the Sun.
