Is the twenty-seventh night of Ramadan distinguished from the others?

Question:
The questioner says: Shaykh, does the twenty-seventh night of this month, Ramadan, have any special merit? And what is the ruling on celebrating this night?

Answer:
It is the twenty-seventh night. It is the most likely night to be Laylat al-Qadr, according to Imam Ahmad and other imams. So, the twenty-seventh night is the most likely to be Laylat al-Qadr.
This is not a matter of certainty; it is only hoped for. It may also be in other nights of Ramadan. It is obligatory for the Muslim to strive in all the nights of Ramadan through prayer, supplication, and attending the tarawih prayer with the imam until he departs, in every night of Ramadan.
So, if he stands in prayer in all the nights of Ramadan, Laylat al-Qadr has passed by him, because it is one of the nights of Ramadan. As for the one who limits himself to standing in prayer in some of the nights of Ramadan, he may not catch this night; it may be in the nights he left. Yes.
