Determining the Night of Decree in the last ten nights

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Shaykh, this person has a question about the Night of Decree. He says: Where is the Night of Decree on the twenty-seventh of Ramadan? If it is established with certainty, is it the evening of the twenty-sixth until the dawn, or the evening of the twenty-seventh?

Answer:
The Night of Decree is in Ramadan without a doubt, but determining it specifically is a matter of consideration. There is no evidence establishing a specific night for it; rather, it is in Ramadan. However, the most likely time to seek it is in the last ten nights, specifically in the odd-numbered nights: the twenty-first, twenty-third, twenty-fifth, twenty-seventh, and twenty-ninth. The most likely night is the twenty-seventh. Yes.
