Aisha RadiAllahu Anha stated that I asked Rasoolullah Sallal laahoo alaihi wa alihi wassallam, “If I find Lailatul Qadar then what should I do? He (peace be upon him) said, recite this Dua.

”O Allah! You are All-Forgiving and You love forgiveness, so FORGIVE me”

أَللّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ عَفُوٌّ تُحِبُّ العَفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنّيْ

Allaahumma innaka ‘afuwwun tuhibb al-‘afwa fa’fu ‘anni

The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, Search for Laylat al-Qadr in the last ten days of Ramadan.”

Malik :: Book 19 : Hadith 19.6.16

Ziyad related to me from Malik that he had heard a man he trusted of the people of knowledge say, “The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was shown the lifespans of the people (who had gone) before him, or what Allah willed of that, and it was as if the lives of the people of his community had become too short for them to be able to do as many good actions as others before them had been able to do with their long lives, so Allah gave him Laylat al-Qadr, which is better than a thousand months.”

Allah Subhaanahu wata’ala says in the Holy Quran:

“Indeed, We sent the Qur’an down during the Night of Decree.
And what can make you know what is the Night of Decree?
The Night of Decree is better than a thousand months.
The angels and the Spirit descend therein by permission of their Lord for every matter.
Peace it is until the emergence of dawn.”

Here is a table showing how laylatul qadr might occur on any of the last ten nights.
