In this night (27th of Ramadan), the
Holy Quran was sent down from LOH-E-MEHFOOZ (the Preserved Tablet) to the
earth. Messenger of ALLAH (S.A.W) told us to search for Shab-e-Qadr in the odd
numbered nights, in the last ten days of Ramzan. So, the 21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th
or 29th night of Ramadan could be Shab-e-Qadr.

the last ten days of Ramadhan." (Bukhari)

Ramadhan, did not try in any of the Ashra." (Muslim)
