| [slm] i know there's been a lot of discussion about salat al istikhara, i was just wondering if there is anywhere that i could find out specific formulas to insert in the du'a (i mean in the bit that says this matter), eg when one is searching for guidance in a difficult decision? how do you know what phrase to use? [hope this makes sense] [wlm] |

| wa alaykum as salaam wa rahmatAllah, Here's a word you might need to know: zawaj* ;) Or you can just say the person's name :P Hehe.. just kidding. I never really thought about it before.. that's a great question :) InshaAllah some of the Arabic speakers out there can help us out.. wasalaamu alaykum. * zawaj = marriage |

| [slm] That part doesn't *have* to be in Arabic. The "matter" (the part said after 'haadhal amr') can be explained in any language. For instance, you could say after 'haadhal amr' ... "that is, my marriage with so-and-so" or "that is, my education at such-and-such university" or "that is, me working at such-and-such company" and then continue with "khayrul lee fee deeni ...." Repeat the same thing after the second "haadhal amr." Wallahu a'lam. Wassalamu alaikum. |

| [slm] I made a mistake in my last post! I said:[quote]Repeat the same thing after the second "haadhal amr."[/quote]This is not necessary. That is, if you explain the matter after the first "haadhal amr" then that's enough. You don't *have* to explain it again after the second "haadhal amr." |
