The Night of Prestige of the Chosen One [PPBUH]
the night of prestige or the night of power [in Arabic: Qadr]… and the Prophet, the Chosen One... and Qur’an… these are three conjugates like one… As the Prophet, the Beloved [PPBUH] was a Qur’an walking among people. And the Night of Prestige and Power is the night when the Qur’an was revealed… so what if the pole that everything else revolves around? We recite Qur’an all year but it is more tasty and loveable in Ramadan… where the strive, self contradiction, charity, Alms giving, Dhikr, worship, and imprisonment of the devils… also the joyful dilation of the bosoms with the opening of the paradise doors and the closing of the hell doors… all of these prepare the hearts and the souls for good receiving… from the mirror of this goodness the good asking appears… especially after the finish of the middle ten days and the coming of the last ten days, where the night of Qadr [prestige and power] comes which is better than a thousand months… where the rusty mirror of the heart has some purity and so it reflects some of the gifted knowledge…
In the Arabic dictionary [the Arabic Tongue] it says about the word [Qadr]: It is fate and destiny pre-prepared by Allah, Almighty, as He says [We indeed revealed it down in the night of Qadr] i.e. the judgment, as Allah said about it [in it every wise matter is judged]… in the interpretation of Imam ibn Kathir, he said: ibn Abbas and others said (… Allah revealed down Qur'an as a whole from the preserved board to the House of glory in the worldly heaven. Then is was separately detailed, according to the events over 23 year, unto the Messenger of Allah [PPBUH]…). I say: So it was the judgment of Allah and His will to reveal down Qur'an as a whole as explained… However the verse of al-Forqan gives us Allah's saying [And those who disbelieve say: Why is not the Qur'an revealed to him all at once? thus that We may strengthen your heart therewith, and we recited it an arranged reciting ¤ And no question do they bring to you but We reveal to you the truth and the best explanation] al-Furqan 25:32-33. inb Kathir said: Allah says informing about the much objections of the disbelievers, their stubbornness, and their talk in what of not their concern. As they said [Why is not the Qur'an revealed to him all at once?] i.e. like the other Books of Allah; Torah, Ingeil [Gospel], Zabour [Psalter], and other Devine Books. So Allah answered them saying that was divided and separated over 23 years according to the events with all they need of judgments to strengthen the heart of the Muslims therewith, as Allah said [a Qur'an which We have divided, in order that you might recite it to men at intervals, and We have revealed it by revelation] al-Isra 17:106. that is why he said [that We may strengthen your heart therewith, and we recited it an arranged reciting]. Qatadah said: and we clarified it clarification. Abd-ar-Rahman ibn Zaid ibn Aslam said: and we explained it explaining.
All this confirm that the real intention is honoring the Beloved Muhammad [PPBUH] and being kind to him by his Lord, Almighty… in this context Imam ibn Kathir said: Also in this there was a great care for the honor of the Messenger [PPBUH] as the revelation used to come from Allah with the Qur'an day and night, morning and evening, and in staying and in traveling. Each time the revelation comes to him is like the revealing down of a book for the books before him. So this rank is higher, more honorable, and greater than all his brothers of prophets [PBUT]. As Qur'an is the most honorable Book revealed down by Allah, and Muhammad [PPBUH] is the greatest Prophet sent by Allah. And Allah hs combined both merits for the Qur'an: in the high divine world was revealed down all in one time from the Preserved Board to the House of Glory in the worldly heaven. Then it was revealed down to earth separated, time by time according to the events.
Therefore the Prophet [PPBUH]
is the center of the honoring of the bright night of al-Qadr, and he
is the pole of the orbit of the beauty of the words of Allah that
was revealed from heaven… you know that for
[and the prestige in him is for every one with prestige if the subjects and the princes are to stop from him] (47/3) [the judgment in him is for he to whom we raise the complaints as he is the innocent and we are all mistake doers] (47/4)

As
someone said: you say the night of prestige… so please tell me…
whose prestige?!! Or prestige of what?!! And why is all this
cheering for the night while the word “Prestige”
indicates that there is a third part in the equation…

Ahmed ibn Ageeba said in "the Extended Sea": We revealed it
down separated in 20 or 23 years to strengthen your heart and your
sureness. As each time something from the revelation comes down it
strengthen the heart and increases the sureness until it goes to the
eye of the sureness and the truth of the sureness. Al-Qushairy said
"in his interpretation": because if it was just one time then
