SOLAT ISTIKHARAH

Solat Istikharah is a two-rak'ah sunnah prayer performed to seek guidance and the best decision from Allah SWT when you are facing any confusion or dilemma. Here is a complete guide on how to perform it: 1. Intention (Niat)Intention: "Usolli sunnatal istikharati rak'ataini lillahi Ta'ala" (I intend to perform the sunnah Istikharah prayer two rak'ahs because of Allah Ta'ala). 2. Surah Guide (Rak'ahs)First Rak'ah: After reciting Surah Al-Fatihah, it is sunnah to recite Surah Al-Kafirun. Second Rak'ah: After reciting Surah Al-Fatihah, it is sunnah to recite Surah Al-Ikhlas. 3. Istikharah Prayer (Doa)After completing the prayer, read the recommended Doa Istikharah (preferably asking Allah directly for guidance regarding the specific matter you are facing). If you do not memorize the prayer in Arabic, you can pray wholeheartedly in your own language to ask for the best path forward. 4. Execution Time & FrequencyTime: It can be done at any time (except during the prohibited prayer times). However, the most afdhal (preferred) time is in the last third of the night. Frequency: It is encouraged to perform it consistently (for 3 to 7 consecutive days) until your heart is truly at peace and confident in a decision.
