إِسۡتِخَارَه
بِسۡمِ
ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ
ٱلرَّحِيمِ
اَللّٰهُمَّ
اِنِّي اَسۡتَخِيۡرُكَ
بِعِلۡمِكَ وَ
اَسۡتَقۡدِرُكَ
بِقُدۡرَتِكَ
وَ اَسۡاَلُكَ
مِنۡ فَضۡلِكَ
الۡعَظِيمِ فَاِنَّكَ
تَقۡدِرُ وَ لَا
اَقۡدِرُ وَ تَعۡلَمُ
وَ لَا اَعۡلَمُ
وَ اَنۡتَ عَلَّامُ
الۡغُيُّوۡبِ اَللّٰهُمَّ
اِنۡ كُنۡتَ تَعۡلَمُ
اَنَّ هٰذَا الۡاَمۡرَ
خَيۡرٌ لِّيۡ فِي
دِيۡنِيۡ وَ مَعَاشِيۡ
وَ عَاقِبَةِ اَمۡرِيۡ فَاقۡدُرۡهُ
لِيۡ وَ يَسِّرۡهُ
لِيۡ ثُمَّ بَارِك
لِيۡ فِيۡهِ
وَ اِنۡ كُنۡتَ
تَعۡلَمُ اَنَّ
هٰذَا الۡاَمۡرَ
شَرٌّ لِّيۡ فِي
دِيۡنِيۡ وَ مَعَاشِيۡ
وَ عَاقِبَةِ اَمۡرِيۡ
فَاصۡرِفۡهُ عَنِّيۡ وَ اصۡرِفۡنِيۡ عَنۡهُ وَ
اقۡدُرۡ لِيَ الۡخَيۡرَ
حَيۡثُ كَانَ ثُمَّ
اَرۡضِنِيۡ بِهِ
‘O Allah, verily, I seek the good with Your knowledge, and I seek
the strength with Your power and I seek from Your mighty favour,
for certainly You have power whereas I do not have any power. And You know and
I do not know, and You have knowledge of the unseen. O Allah, in Your knowledge
if this matter (for which the Istikhārah is
sought) is good for me in relation to me my religion, my livelihood, and the
end of my matter then decree it for me, make it easy for me and then grant me
blessings in it. And in Your knowledge if this matter (for which the Istikhārah is sought) is bad for me in relation to my
religion, my livelihood, and the end of my matter then turn it away from me and
turn me away from it, and decree for me good wherever it be and make me be pleased
with it.’
