Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The eighth question of Fatwa No. ( 21264 )
Q 8: What is the supplication that was reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) for the Night of the Middle of Sha'ban, and is it a recommended practice to keep this night awake by gathering in the mosque, making a specific supplication, and drawing near to Allah?
A 8: No valid evidence has been established for specifying the Night of the Middle of Sha'ban with a particular supplication or act of worship, so specifying it with such is a religious innovation; based on the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):Sunan Abi Dawud 4607Sahih (Al-Albani) . And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
