Some things to think about: Since Laylatul Qadr can be on any of the "odd" nights within the last 10 nights (as per the most popular view from ahadith and which most of us laymen are told), and since we often have two different beginnings of Ramadan (in the USA for example)... and that even if we have one beginning of the month, there is chance of error (maybe it wasn't Ramadan but we started, or it was Ramadan but we did not start, 'switching around' the true order of the nights), etc.

Based on this, and based on the unimaginable blessings and virtues of this night, isn't it a good idea to make a small bit of sacrifice on sleep & rest and just do extra acts of worship during all of the last ten nights, and not only the nights which (we think) are odd?

Only Allah knows when this night really is, but we have been told that it is one in the last ten nights. Based on the fact that there is always ikhtilaf (disagreement/difference of opinion) these days on when Ramadan actually starts, and even if there isn't ikhtilaf; it would be very sensible and even smart to treat every single one of the last 10-11 nights as it if was Laylatul-Qadr, and then Insha'Allah one is guaranteed to be doing worship on this blessed night. Otherwise, if we only pick the nights which (we think) are odd, there is risk of missing this night.

Please make dua that Allah gives me and all of us the taufeeq to practice what I am trying to say here. Ameen.

Allah knows best.
