Question:
Is it permissible to fast the night of the middle of Sha'ban, and to stand in prayer on the night of the middle as well?

There is no evidence for it. All the hadiths regarding this are weak. Therefore, it is not prescribed to fast the day of the middle, nor to stand in prayer on the night of the middle. All the hadiths in this chapter are weak. Yes.
