Salat-e-Istikhara is a special prayer performed by Muslims when they are facing a big decision or need guidance from Allah (SWT) regarding an important matter.

This prayer is offered when someone is unsure about what to choose, such as a job, marriage, travel, or any personal decision.

The purpose of Istikhara is to seek Allah’s help to make the right choice and to ask Him to guide toward what is better.

It includes two units (rakats) of prayer followed by a specific dua for guidance.

Istikhara shows a Muslim’s trust in Allah’s wisdom and knowledge. It is not about seeing dreams, but about getting peace of heart and clarity.

This beautiful practice teaches Muslims to rely on Allah in all parts of life and not rush into decisions without seeking His guidance.
