There is no "why" because it's possibl to see a rainbow at night, but rare.
The reason is that the source of the colors in the rainbow during the day
is the sun, whereas the source at night can only be the moon, which is
much less bright, so any rainbow at night would be much less noticeable.
The rainbow is almost always in the day sky, produced by sunlight. Very rarely, one can appear in the night sky, produced by moonlight.
It means that you are outside, the moon is in a clear patch of sky and probably full, and in the opposite direction from the moon, there is probably the leftovers of a rainshower.
Rainbows are formed when sunlight is refracted and reflected through water droplets in the atmosphere. Moonlight is not bright enough to create the same effect. Similarly, rainbows are not visible in the dark or at night because the sunlight necessary for their formation is absent.

LOVe,anonamus New Answer. The Thrase is implying that God will not Allow it to Rain This Day. The Thrase is connected to a religious aspect. If There is a Rainbow is at Night then it implys the nest day will be sunny, If a Rainbow exists in the morning then it implys that it will rain.
