The previous Surah is about HOW the Qur'an was revealed, this Surah is about WHEN it was revealed. Allah began the first revelation with the instruction "Read". Allah sent the first revelation in the night of Qadr. Allah ended the previous Surah with the command to do sajda, the best time to be close to Allah in sujood is the night of Qadr till morning. Jibreel (a.s) brought the first revelation, and in the night of Qadr, Jibrel (a.s) brings our destiny.
Ibn Abbas opinion (which he shared with Umar) is that the night of Qadr is on the 27th because the word "layl al Qadr" has nine letters. The word Qadr appears in this Surah 3 times. 9x3=27 There are 30 words in this Surah, the 27th word is "hiyya" which is referring to Layl al Qadr. But the safest opinion is that this night comes in one of the first 5 odd nights of the last 10 days of Ramadan.
إِنَّا أَنزَلْنَاهُ فِي لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ
Allah says "We" in the Qur'an whenever He does something Majestic, like creating the human being and providing us sustenance. Allah uses the "I" pronoun when He is severely angry or intensely merciful, forgiving. Whenever Allah uses "Nahnu" for Himself, He either places before it or after it His attribute Rabb or His Name - Allah. So it should never be confused that it is plural. It is the Royal We, two show nobility and blessedness.
Allah says "We sent it down" - it refers to the Qur'an. Allah uses a pronoun for the Qur'an. The believers were obsessed with the Qur'an, they are dying for it while the disbelivers are willing to kill against it, they can't stand it.
لَوَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ
الْقَدْرِ - The night of destiny (yearly budget is set for every person). The night of great dignity and honour. The night of appreciate - when people obey Allah in this, Allah really appreciates them. Allah counts this one night's worship as better than a thousand months. Power, Tightness (because so many angels descent that it is tight).
مَا - to surprise and give you a sense of awe. Do you realize what amazing thing it is?
Allah has mercy on His close friends. The worshippers of Allah realize their own worth this night. If you are not worth anything to Allah, you will sleep through it, you won't be able to take any advantage of it. Those who are really seeking Allah really appreciate Him this night.
لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ خَيْرٌ مِّنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ
The deeds that you person in this night, it is better than a thousand months (83 years). The average life for women is 80 and for men is 74. Allah gives us beyond and gives us an opportunity to do ibadaah for our entire lifespan.
You can accomplish more good that it is unlike any other. If you have problems with your family, this is the time to make up.
تَنَزَّلُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ وَالرُّوحُ فِيهَا بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهِم مِّن كُلِّ أَمْرٍ
سَلَامٌ هِيَ حَتَّىٰ مَطْلَعِ الْفَجْرِ
All access pass to meet the celebrity, meet the Dean or the President at a press conference. The angels hold the Believers at this high regard. They bring our destiny and salam till morning. When the permission is giving to them, they come rapidly to deliver the two.
They bring all sorts of commands = all sorts of wise decisions.
