Istikhaarah prayer.

How to pray istikhaarah.

How to benefit properly from Istikhaarah .

No limitations far as I know.

After you do your own homework and then pray for guidance then you follow whichever of the 2 options you feel comfortable with. If not sure, you keep praying till your heart feels strongly towards one side.

Assalaam walaikum,

It is probably blocked because it represents a version of Islam. There is more to Islam.

We should not use the prayer for anything haram i.e. No Istikhara for which bank to rob. Other than that, it is good to make istikhara to help us with our decisions. Some of the salaf would make istikhara at start of each day.

The links are very good.

It is critical to understand that making Istikhara is an act of devotion. It is not an absolute. In each aspect of our lives we go to Allah. We ask of Him to show us the path for that which is better for the now and the hereafter.
Brother Mr. Muslim replied in one link that we have to make sure we are not praying with our desires. We need to take heed of this.

thank you for your reply...but for some reason the website islam questions and answers is blocked where i am,,,,

If you like i can post the info in here from there. It is probably blocked in saudi because they are going through their change of who can give fatwa and who cannot so only those sanctioned by the gov't are allowed and all others are being blocked, regardless of how reputable those scholars are.

صلاة الاستخارة


الحمد لله وحده . فإن العبد في هذه الدنيا تمر به محن وإحن ، ويحتاج إذا وقف على مفترق الطرق أن يلجأ إلى ربه ويفوض إليه أمره ، ويسأله الدلالة على الخير . ومن أعظم العبادات حال تشتت الذهن ونزول الحيرة بالإنسان صلاة الاستخارة التي دل عليها النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم إذا قال : (( إذا هم أحدكم بأمر فليصلِّ ركعتين ثم ليقل : " اللهم إني أستخيرك بعلمك ، واستقدرك بقدرتك ، وأسألك من فضلك العظيم ، فإنك تقدر ولا أقدر ، وتعلم ولا أعلم ، وأنت علام الغيوب . اللهم إن كنت تعلم أن هذا الأمر - ويسمي حاجته - خير لي في ديني ومعاشي وعاقبة أمري فاقدره لي ، ويسره لي ، ثم بارك لي فيه . وإن كنت تعلم أن هذا الأمر شر لي في ديني ومعاشي وعاقبة أمري عاجله وآجله فاصرفه عني واصرفني عنه ، واقدر لي الخير حيث كان ثم أرضني به " )) . [ البخاري ]



consultation du sort


Louange à Dieu seul. Une personne dans ce monde passe par les tribulations et les plier, et si vous avez besoin de s'arrêter à la croisée de se tourner vers le Seigneur et lui ordonna de lui déléguer, et lui a demandé la signification de la bonne. Un des plus grands actes d'adoration si la dispersion de l'esprit et la descente de la consultation du sort l'homme de confusion qui sont indiquées par le prophète la paix soit sur lui si il a dit: ((Si vous êtes l'un de vous a ordonné prier deux rak a puis de dire: "Oh Dieu, je Ostejerk vos connaissances, et Astqdrick votre capacité, et je vous demande s'il vous plaît grands, vous êtes estimé ne pas J'apprécie, et d'apprendre que je ne sais pas, et vous Connaisseur de l'Inconnaissable Oh Dieu, vous savez que ce n'est -. et a appelé son besoin -. meilleurs pour moi dans ma religion, ma vie, et les conséquences de ma situation alors il ordonne pour moi, et m'a fait plaisir, et puis me bénir dans ce cas vous savez que cela est mauvais pour moi dans ma religion et ma pension la conséquence de ma situation et, plus tard, puis retirez-la de moi et me détourner de lui, et je l'apprécie les bonnes choses et puis il Erdhana ")). [Boukhari]
