When
one desires to make istikhara for marriage, then keep the person in
mind whem making niyah. Then do wudhu and perform Salaat. Then praise
Allah, mention His Greatness and plead:
|
اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ تَقْدِرُ وَلَا أَقْدِرُ وَتَعْلَمُ وَلَا أَعْلَمُ
وَأَنْتَ عَلَّامُالْغُيُوبِ ، فَإِنْ رَأَيْتَ أَنَّ فِي فُلَانَةِ
خَيْرَاً لِي فِي دِينِي وَدُنْيَايَ وَآخِرَتِي فَاقْدُرْهَا لِي وَإِنْ
كَانَ غَيْرُهَا خَيْرٌ مِنْهَا لِي فِي دِينِي وَآخِرَتِي فَاقْدُرْهَا
لِي
|
"O Allah,
You have power (control) and I have no control and You know and I do not
know, and You know the condition of the Unseen. Thus if You see (deem
fit) that this woman (here mention her name) is good for me concerning
my Deen, world and Akhirah then grant me her control (make it possible
that I marry her) and if besides her there be (another woman) which is
better for me concerning Deen and Akhirah then specify her for me (grant
me control over he)".
