JazaakAllaah Khayr Mufti Saheb and uploader
I love his lectures...
I’m a revert Alhamdullilah, I am still learning to pray. I am having so much trouble learning. I can’t pronounce many Arabic words. (I’m trying) but can I pray Istikhara in English? Is that allowed? I need guidance for many things. I want my iman to grow and I am having a big problem in my life and need understanding and help making a major decision. Anyone is welcome to answer if you know the answers
Clara U islam said it’s all about nawaitu ... yes you can pray in english .... like me ... i used youtube to pray .... I’ll type like how to salat maghrib .... then I’ll follow until I understand the meaning and until I remember the words ... and its keep me not rushing in salat ... may allah bless you . InsyaAllah.... i hope this can help
Sis. Clara, the option of reading the dua from English transliteration is also good. Allah knows Best.
English is ALLOWED but u have to learn Arabic it takes time trust me I was practicing at work had the prayer pinned up at my station so I can look up and read it I listened to it that might help u
Insha Allah Ta'ala
Assalam Alaikum Warahmatullah wabarakatuh... Dear Clara i can help you with the pronounciation..Email me at unawally@gmail.com if you're interested

Assalamualaikum Mufit Menk
Is it always about choosing between two, can’t we perform istikhara for a general guidance like for any career? Please reply if anybody knows
Is it mandatory to offer istakhara salah after isha? Or it can be offered anytime ?
If u read istakara how many days and can you speak to the person while u asking for guidence
mall how I wish I can meet you live
Asslmlykm warahmutuLLAHI wa barakatu, I am a 13 y.o girl and I was hoping for some advice...I've been super lazy lately, lazier than I've ever been in my life and I haven't been praying.. I don't know where to start or how to break these bad habits of mine.. I know it's obvious just not be lazy but I have other personal problems that I don't like mentioning it out loud but I just need advice on how to be consistent thank you so much and May Allah bless you all 😊
Eina Jai Wa alaykok asalam, my advice would be to not over burden yourself and try to change the world in a day, dont be to hard on yourself and just relax coz its all gonna be alright and just do small steps towards betterment coz if u over burden yourself then you'll just crash if u know what i mean, seek allahs help and try your best, inshallah kheir.
@@Kinghassz Great advice💞
This video was calling my name
Is your name istekhara ?
Brother, what is your name?
Allahuma barik
Assalamualaikum. i wanted to know if i can perform istikhara for someone else even if the person didn't ask me to do so and he doesn't know about it?
may Allah guide us all to the right path. Aameen.
God bless.
Hello. Sheikh Mink said that the sunna is for the person involved to do the istikhara. You can make dua or supplication on their behalf that they reach the correct decision. May Allah make them reach the right decision in the path of iman.
In the example you gave, how can the person from our generation say he saw the prophet when he doesn't know what the prophet looks like, cause wow what a lucky person am I rite??
🤲
Assalamu alaikum, I haven't performed istikara before, as I wasn't confused about a certain matter in the past (marriage) but the person I wanted to marry didn't want to continue due to family disagreements. I am finding it hard to move on and look into other potentials. Should I do istikara to seek Allah's help and guidance? I don't know if I want to get married anymore, he broke my heart. Alhamdulillah it's made me focus on religion more but I want to forget him. Thanks in advance to anyone who replies. Also, I don't know the dua, I will memorise it inshaallah but for the time being can I read it from my phone after the 2 rakats?
EXACTLY MY SITUATION
@@rabiajafferi7050 inshaallah Allah will guide you sis, its his loss!! If he didnt fight for you...like my potential didn't...Allah has better plans for us inshaallah! I will remember you in my duahs, please remember me in yours, thank you

Asalamualaikum sister I have added a link for istakara dua and may Allah bring ease for you and the Muslim ummah ameen
Have you ever thought about Allah protecting you from what’s to come even after you married him? Idk I just thought about that for a bit and also don’t give up hope or lose interest in marriage because of him. I know you loved him but just pray to Allah to grant you what’s Best for you. Sometimes we don’t get what we want because it isn’t what we need. He knows what you need and he knows what’s good for you or bad for you. He’s closer to you than anyone else. You got this sis✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽
assalamuwalaikum brother mufti menk how can I contact with you ?
+Taslima Choudhury www.muftimenk.com/contact/ Salam Alaykum :)
@@HeraANaqvi Will dey ans??
I hve quoted my prblm they nd i want quick suggestions😑😑
Can anyone plz post a comment regarding how to pray istikharah step by step?
Listed below is the process. Try do this after esha and go straight to bed. Avoid chatting to people so you have a clear mind.
METHOD OF ISTIKHAARAH
When making Istikhaarah begin with performing two Rakaats Nafl Salaat. Then with all sincerity recite the following Du’a.
Allaahumma innee astakheeruka bi ilmika wa-astaqdiruka biqudratika wa-as’aluka min fadhlika al-adheem. Fa innaka taqdiru walaa aqdiru. Wa ta’lamu walaa a’alamu wa anta allaamul ghuyoob. Allaahumma in kunta ta’lamu anna haadhal-amr khayrun liy fiy deeniy wa-ma’aashiy wa-aaqibat amriy, fa’qdruhliy wa-yassirh liy thumma baarik liy feehi. Wa in-kunta ta’lamu anna haadhal amr sharrun liy fiy deeniy wa-ma’aashiy was-‘aaqibat amriy. Fa asrifh annee wa-srif ‘anhu. Wa aqdurh liyal khayr hayth kaana thumma a-rdhiniy bihee
Trans: O Allah!! Behold I ask You the good through Your Knowledge, and ability through Your Power, and beg (Your favour) out of Your infinite Bounty. For surely You have Power; I have none. You know all; I know not. You are the Great Knower of all things.
O Allah! If in Your Knowledge this matter be good for my faith (Deen), for my livelihood, and for the consequences of my affairs, then ordain it for me, and make it easy for me, and bless me therein.
But if in Your Knowledge, this matter be bad for my faith (Deen) for my livelihood, and for the consequences of my affairs, then turn it away from me, and turn me away therefrom, and ordain for me the good wherever it be, and cause me to be pleased therewith.
While reciting this Du’aa when one reaches HAADHAL AMR (THIS MATTER) at both places he should think of his problem.
May Allah guide and assist us all, Aameen.
Is there any way of contacting Mufti Menk?
Charisma 123 yes you can email him
Email adress???
This is the reality about Istikhara.
Mufti Menk said that Istikhara is performed when someone doesnt know what to do this contradicts what other scholars say.
Salah Istikhara is prayed for example you want to marry. You know you want to marry someone so you know what to do, but we ask allah to make it easy for us if it is good for us. And if it is bad for us he makes it hard and starts blocking the path towards it.
So it is not performed if someone doenst know what to do, but when someone needs to make a decision and allah will guide us in that decision. In the Dua Istikhara we ask allah to make it easy for us when it is good for us and if it is bad for us he will make it very hard.
Can someone with knowlegde reply and substantiate the argument?
Djazakallahu khairan.
How do I perform this for guidance on a potential guy
PLLEASEEE!! Can we put a mic on him next time? one of those clip on mics he can attach to his thobe. Instead of listening to the echoing of his voice?
Can someone else do it on behalf for you .. i did it myself positive result.. a learned religious person did it again for me himself came back negative.. im confused please advice me
Salam sir i really need your help ...
What kind of help ? You can ask another sheikh through his email..
So 2 rakat followed by the dua after. And this all takes place after salat isha right?
Yes, Listed below is the process. Try do this after esha and go straight to bed. Avoid chatting to people so you have a clear mind.

how we can appreciate the diffrence between the test from Allah and the punishment of our sins while facing hard or difficult time?
If you look deeper there’s no punishment tbh. It’s like training you to be stronger and training you to be closer to Allah. Allah did not create us to punish us, he shows his love to us daily we just fail to notice. Whatever you’re going through, you’ll get through it. He has given you the power to do that. He has been supporting you and look you wake up the next morning. How? I mean he could’ve taken your life but he didn’t because he is giving you chances. ✊🏽you got this
can you please repeat the istaghara duwa.
replay the Video.

Does anyone have the transliteration of dua?
Assalaam alaikum. If you search on Google for salat istikhara transliteration it will be there InshaAllah. Jzk
Sarah Dunn This is what i found few weeks ago, not sure if it's authentic or not.. Hoping someone with knowledge will be able to confirm it:
“O Allah, I consult You as You are All-Knowing and I appeal to You to give me power as You are Omnipotent, I ask You for Your great favor, for You have power and I do not, and You know all of the hidden matters . O Allah ! If you know that this matter
(then the person reciting the du’a should mention the matter for which he is seeking Allah’s Guidance)
is good for me in my religion, my livelihood, and for my life in the Hereafter, (or he said: ‘for my present and future life,’) then make it (easy) for me. And if you know that this matter is not good for me in my religion, my livelihood and my life in the Hereafter, (or he said: ‘for my present and future life,’) then keep it away from me and take me away from it and choose what is good for me wherever it is and please me with it.”
The following hadith (referred above in Fiqh-us-Sunnah) is narrated by Jabir bin Abdullah about Salat-ul-Istikhara in Sahih Bukhari (volume 2, hadith number 263 and again volume 9, hadith 487):
The Prophet (peace be upon him) used to teach us the way of doing Istikhara (Istikhara means to ask Allah to guide one to the right sort of action concerning any job or a deed), in all matters as he taught us the Suras of the Quran. He said, “If anyone of you thinks of doing any job he should offer a two Rakat prayer other than the compulsory ones and say (after the prayer):
‘Allahumma inni astakhiruka bi’ilmika, Wa astaqdiruka bi-qudratika, Wa asaluka min fadlika al-‘azim Fa-innaka taqdiru Wala aqdiru, Wa ta’lamu Wala a’lamu, Wa anta ‘allamu l-ghuyub. Allahumma, in kunta ta’lam anna hadha-l-amra
(then the person reciting the du’a should mention the matter for which he is seeking Allah’s Guidance)
Khairun li fi dini wa ma’ashi wa’aqibati amri (or ‘ajili amri wa’ajilihi) Faqdirhu li wa yas-sirhu li thumma barik li Fihi, Wa in kunta ta’lamu anna hadha-lamra shar-run li fi dini wa ma’ashi wa’aqibati amri (or fi’ajili amri wa ajilihi) Fasrifhu anni was-rifni anhu. Waqdir li al-khaira haithu kana Thumma ardini bihi.
@@sube3970 the first part does not sound right. Asking Allah to give you power. I think the words might be mixed up. I will message you the correct version later InshaAllah.

Sorry i totally forgot to send transliteration. Here it is:
Allāhumma innī astakhīruka biʿilmika wa astaqdiruka biqudratika, wa asʾaluka min faḍlika (a)l-ʿaẓīm fainnaka taqdiru walā aqdiru wa taʿlamu wala aʿlamu wa anta ʿallāmu (a)l-ghuyūb. Allāhumma, in kunta taʿlamu anna hadha (a)l-amra [mention decision here] khayrun lī fī dīnī wa maʿāshī waʿāqibati amrī faqdurhu lī wa ya (a)s-sirhu lī thumma barik lī fīhi. Wa in kunta taʿlamu anna hadha (a)l-amra sharrun lī fī dīnī wa maʿāshī wa ʿāqibati amri faṣrifhu ʿannī wa (a)ṣrifni ʿanhu waqdir lī(ya) (a)l-khayra haythu kāna thumma arḍīnī bihi.
Translation:
Dear God, I’m asking You for goodness through Your [Infinite] Knowledge, and I’m asking You for strength through Your Divine Ability, and I’m asking You from Your Infinite Grace. Because You’re completely able to do, while I simply cannot. You know everything, and I do not, and You know everything that’s unseen. Dear God, if You know that this decision [mention decision here] is good for me in terms of my religiosity, my worldly life, and afterlife, then decree it, facilitate it for me with ease, and bless me through it. But if You know that this has bad consequences on my religiosity, my worldly life, and afterlife, then get it away from me and get me away from it, and [instead of that] decree what’s better for me, whatever it may be, and make me content with it.
Im so confused 😢 I don't want people s opinion but Gods guidance
