    $\begingroup$ Is it possible, Ali, that you don't have enough points to vote to reopen? $\endgroup$ Commented Sep 29 at 22:01

As already mentioned in the comments, only users with at least 3000 reputation points can vote to close and reopen. See, for example:

It is worth pointing out that even users below 3000 reputation point can ask to reopen a question - one possibility to do so is on meta. There is also a thread intended for this purpose: Requests for reopen and undelete votes for closed and deleted questions. (I interpreted your question as a question why the reopen button is not available - as opposed to a reopen-requestion for this specific question. So I have answered the question in this way.)

Also, if you edit a question and check the checkbox "This edit resolves the original close reason", then the edit puts the question into the reopen votes review queue - where other users see your question and they can vote to reopen (or to leave closed).

    $\begingroup$ @YemonChoi Yes, certainly. You probably saw that many times in the past - and yo can look at various examples obtained from this query. $\endgroup$ Commented Oct 1 at 1:24
