This indicates that this act of grace was from Allah to him after he was raised to the lowest heaven, or this act of grace occurs on the Day of Resurrection, expressed in the past tense to signify its inevitable occurrence; this is among the secrets of the Unseen which Allah revealed to His Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.
