Commentary
In the last part of the night, Allāh ﷺ descends to the Nearest Heaven and asks His worshippers to make supplications to Him, and He bestows His favors and bounties to His worshippers. In the state of prostration man is nearest to Allāh ﷺ, therefore, in the last part of the night the supplications made in the state of prostration are answered.
