حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ خَالِدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو السُّلَفِيُّ الْحِمْصِيُّ، بِحِمْصَ، حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ الزُّبَيْدِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، عَنِ الْمَسْعُودِيِّ، عَنِ الْحَكَمِ بْنِ عُتَيْبَةَ، وَحَمَّادِ بْنِ أَبِي سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ النَّخَعِيِّ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ؓ قَالَ:

" كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: يُعَلِّمُنَا الِاسْتِخَارَةَ كَمَا يُعَلِّمُنَا السُّورَةَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ يَقُولُ: إِذَا أَرَادَ أَحَدُكُمْ أَمْرًا فَلْيَقُلِ: اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْتَخِيرُكَ بِعِلْمِكَ، وَأَسْتَقْدِرُكَ بِقُدْرَتِكَ، وَأَسْأَلُكَ مِنْ فَضْلِكَ الْعَظِيمِ؛ فَإِنَّكَ تَقْدِرُ وَلَا أَقْدِرُ، وَتَعْلَمُ وَلَا أَعْلَمُ، وَأَنْتَ عَلَّامُ الْغُيُوبِ. اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كَانَ هَذَا الْأَمْرُ خِيرَةً لِي فِي دِينِي وَدُنْيَايَ وَعَاقِبَةِ أَمْرِي فَقَدِّرْهُ لِي، وَإِنْ كَانَ غَيْرُ ذَلِكَ خَيْرًا فَسَهِّلْ لِيَ الْخَيْرَ حَيْثُ كَانَ وَاصْرِفْ عَنِّي الشَّرَّ حَيْثُ كَانَ، وَرَضِّنِي بِقَضَائِكَ

✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ used to teach us istikhārah as he taught us a sūrah from the Qur'an, saying: 'When one of you intends a matter, let him say: O God, I seek Your guidance through Your knowledge, and I seek Your power through Your might, and I ask You of Your immense bounty; for You have power and I have none, and You know and I do not, and You are the Knower of the unseen. O God, if this matter is good for me in my religion, my worldly life, and my ultimate outcome, then decree it for me; and if something else is better, then facilitate good for me wherever it may be and avert evil from me wherever it may be, and make me content with Your decree.'
