أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي الْمَوَالِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُنْكَدِرِ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى يُعَلِّمُنَا الِاسْتِخَارَةَ كَمَا يُعَلِّمُنَا السُّورَةَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ يَقُولُ «إِذَا هَمَّ أَحَدُكُمْ بِالْأَمْرِ فَلْيَرْكَعْ رَكْعَتَيْنِ مِنْ غَيْرِ الْفَرِيضَةِ ثُمَّ لِيَقُلِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْتَخِيرُكَ بِعِلْمِكَ وَأَسْتَقْدِرُكَ بِقُدْرَتِكَ وَأَسْأَلُكَ مِنْ فَضْلِكَ الْعَظِيمِ فَإِنَّكَ تَقْدِرُ وَلَا أَقْدِرُ وَتَعْلَمُ وَلَا أَعْلَمُ وَأَنْتَ عَلَّامُ الْغُيُوبِ اللَّهُمَّ فَإِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ يُسَمِّيهِ بِعَيْنِهِ خَيْرًا لِي فِي دِينِي وَمَعَاشِي وَعَاقِبَةِ أَمْرِي فقدره لي ويسره لي وبارك فيه وإن كان شرا لي في ديني ومعادي ومعاشي وعاقبة أمري فَاصْرِفْهُ عَنِّي وَاصْرِفْنِي عَنْهُ وَقَدِّرْ لِيَ الْخَيْرَ حَيْثُ كَانَ وَرَضِّنِي بِهِ»

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to teach us the istikharah supplication as he taught us a surah from the Quran, saying, "When one of you intends a matter, let him pray two rak'ahs other than the obligatory, then let him say: O Allah, I seek Your guidance by Your knowledge, and I seek ability by Your power, and I ask You of Your great bounty. For You have power and I have none, and You know and I know not, and You are the Knower of hidden things. O Allah, if You know this matter, naming it specifically, to be good for me in my religion, my livelihood, and the outcome of my affair, then decree it for me, make it easy for me, and bless me in it. And if it is evil for me in my religion, my livelihood, and the outcome of my affair, then turn it away from me and turn me away from it, and decree for me the good wherever it may be, and make me content with it."
