Allah has had regard for him more than for anyone else. He has enhanced his glamour; He has opened everything for him, and forgiven him everything. He has preserved his family from blemish. He set him in a night trip to the Heavens, swore by his name, by his time, by his country, and granted him profusion. His verses are eternal. His religion has abolished the other religions. He has been the Messenger of the whole humanity.
Here are the items on what we have stated: according to the exegetes (interpreters), there is a difference between the positions of the Friend, our Prophet, may the greetings of God be to him, and the others' position. You have some verses here which partly explain this statement. Let us first begin by the difference of position between him and the Khalil (Friend of Allah, pbuh): Al Khalil (Abraham, pbuh) begs pardon by saying: "It is from Him that I beseech the forgiveness of my sin on the day of accounts" whereas in that respect the position of the Habib (the Confidant of Allah, pbuh) is the following: "Yes, We made you winner of a glamorous victory so that Allah forgives you the early beginnings of your sin and whatever of it that has lingered". The Friend (pbuh) is in the situation of an applicant. He says: "Do not wail out on the Day of the Resurrection": whereas He gave satisfaction to the Confident (pbuh) without a slightest request: "The Day when Allah will not lower the Prophet and his Companions".
The Friend (pbuh) said: "Grant me a truthful tongue among the lowest", meanwhile to the Confidant (pbuh) He said: "We have heightened your glamour".
