No firm hadeeth exists to support the virtue of the night of 15th of Sha’baan.

Reference: al-Baa’ith li-Abee Shaamah

Abul-Khattaab ibn Dahiyyah said:

The scholars of hadeeth said “there is no hadeeth related to the [virtue of the night of] 15th of Sha’baan which is authentic.”

Reference: Lataa.if al-Ma’aarif

Ibn Rajab said:

And there are numerous ahaadeth related to the virtue of the night of 15th of Sha’baan, and they (the scholars of hadeeth) have differed [in their opinion] regarding them; and most of them have declared them to be weak.
