Question:
What is the ruling on supplication on the middle of Sha'ban?
Answer:
No supplication, fasting, or night prayer has been established for the middle of Sha'ban; it is like any other day. If it is his habit to pray at night, he prays; he continues with his prayer and his habit of standing in night prayer. As for specifically designating the night of the middle of Sha'ban for standing in prayer, or the day of the middle of Sha'ban for fasting, this is a bid'ah (religious innovation).[Al-A'raf 7:71]. Yes.
