It is narrated on the authority of ‘Abdullaah ibn Unays Al-Juhani, may Allah be pleased with him, that he said, “The Messenger of Allah 
said: ‘I was shown [in a dream] the [date of the] Night of Al-Qadr, but I was caused to forget it. I saw myself performing prostration in the morning after it in water and mud.’ Then, on the twenty-third night, it rained. The Messenger of Allah led us in prayer and when he finished, the traces of water and mud were on his forehead and nose.” ‘Abdullaah ibn Unays, may Allah be pleased with him, would therefore say that [the Night of Al-Qadr] was the twenty-third night. [Muslim]

Tell me which night I should go out for prayer on.” The Messenger of Allah, , said: "Go out on the twenty third night of Ramadan." [Maalik in his Muwatta']

First: The Prophet, was caused to forget the exact date of the Night of Al-Qadr. The wisdom behind this may be that the people would therefore not rely on it and slacken in performing acts of worship at other times.

The wisdom behind this may be that the people would therefore not rely on it and slacken in performing acts of worship at other times.Second: The Companions, may Allah be pleased with them, were eager to seek and ask about the nights which have superiority over others, for the purpose of spending them entirely in prayer and Thikr (remembrance and mentioning Allah).
Third: The excellence of the twenty third night, on which the Night of Al-Qadr may occur; and this is why Muslims should spend it in diligent worship.
Fourth: The moon on the twenty third night looks like half a big bowl, which coincided with the night of Al-Qadr in that year as mentioned in the previous Hadeeths.
