There is a hadith that states 'Laylatul Qadr in on one of the last ten uneven nights of Ramadaan. Is this an authentic hadith?

Answer

Ubada bin Samit (Radhiallaahu Anhu) reports, "Once I enquired from the Holy Prophet (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) with regards to Laylatul Qadr. He replied that it is in the odd nights of the last 10 days of Ramadaan. Whoever worships Allah with full conviction and anticipating reward from Him shall have his past sins forgiven". (Musnad Imam Ahmed,Bayhaqi,Mukhtasar Qiyaamul Layl of Muhammad bin Nasr al Marwazi)

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
