Question:
In Ramadan, during the last ten nights, on the night of the twenty-seventh, the entire Haram becomes filled, and after the twenty-seventh, people leave. Most people believe that this specific night is the Night of Decree?
Answer:
It is the most likely of the nights, just as Ubayy said. He used to swear by it and take an oath that it is the Night of Decree.
Q: Some people strive to perform the lesser pilgrimage on this night?
The Shaykh: One should not strain oneself or harm people. One should perform the lesser pilgrimage in Ramadan, and praise be to Allah, and that is sufficient, whether at the beginning, middle, or end. One should not strain oneself on this night; because if one strains oneself, it leads to crowding and hardship for people.
