What is istikhara namaz?

Istikhara is a special prayer in Islam that seeks guidance from Allah (God) before making an important decision. It is performed by Muslims who are seeking clarity and answers for a particular matter. Istikhara is a two rakah prayer that can be performed at any time of the day or night, but is typically recommended to be done after the Isha prayer.

During the prayer, the person recites specific verses from the Quran and makes supplication to Allah. After the prayer, one should pay close attention to their dreams, intuition, or any signs that may indicate Allah’s answer to their question or decision.

It is important to note that Istikhara is not a way to avoid taking responsibility or making a decision. Rather, it is a means to seek guidance from Allah and make the best decision possible. It is also important to trust in Allah’s plan and ultimately accept whatever outcome Allah has in store.
