Assalamualaikum Warrahmatullah,
Does anybody have information on a site which has dua for the Istikhara prayer in arabic. I know the dua but somehow feel that I am making mistakes in the fatha wa kasra etc.
Jazakallah.
Wassalam,
Riyaz.

You can find a transliteration at the following page at islam-qa.com:

[url=http://www.islam-qa.com/QA/5Jurisprudence_and_Islamic_Rulings(Fiqh)/Salaat_(_Prayer_)/Salaat_Al-istikhaarah(_Prayer_asking_for_guidance_)/How_to_pray_istikhaarah.24061998.2217.shtml]How to Pray Istikhaarah[/url]

And you can always recite the duaa in English.


hmmm... the url is not working. I will check but in the meantime go to islam-qa.com and search for istikhaarah. The question is #2217.

This is really weird. There is a vertical bar in the URL (after the 5) that yabb eats up. It doesn't display vertical bars at all.

<--- There should be two vertical bars here.

Nope it does not display them.

I've never done istikarra before.  I've checked different sources and they all
tell me a different thing.  Does it have to be done after Isha and do you have
to go to sleep right away?

jazakallah
