Assalamu alaikum warahmathullahi wabarakathuhu.
Religious
advice is a serious matter. when one takes to give some religious advice,
he must have very good knowledge, otherwise he will have the sin of those
who follow him too.
where in the world did you get the following notions?
"Moreover, the istisharah is better than the
istikharah; because
the istisharah is adviced in the
holy quran by Allah subhanahu wa
taala, while
istikharah is adviced by our prophet muhammad peace be
upon
him."
???????? Quran and sunna are part of the religion they complement each
other. One can never say the sunna is less important andthissi not the way of
deriving which to choose.
"He also advises us to decide
what to do after praying the called
istikharah salah
and dua SEVEN times."
??????????where do you find evidence for this?
May Allah always
bless and guide all of us in the straight path.

Subject: [IslamCity] ISTISHARAH IS BETTER
THAN ISTIKHARAH
ISTISHARAH IS BETTER THAN ISTIKHARAH

dear muslim nectar,
assalamu alaikum
salet al
estikhara is explained in the ahaadees
(words) of our prophet muhammad
peace be upon him.
I have a detail article on this subject written by
me
in the turkish language as my mother tongue, but you
do not
understand turkish.
however, let me explain a little bit in english:
before going to sleeping, pray a nafilah salah - two
rakahs. This
is also called as "istikharah salah".
In the first rakah, read kafiruun
surah after fatihah.
In the second rakah, read ihlaas surah after
fatihah.
when you finish the prayer (=salah), please read
the
prayer (=dua) of istihaarah.
If you know the original version of
the istikharah
dua, it is better to read it in its original
language
-arabic-.
you may also read the translation of the called
dua in
any language like french, english etc. which you
also
understand.
The important thing is that you should know
and
understand what you say in the istikharah dua.
if you do not
know the istikharah dua either in its
original language -arabic- or in its
translations into
any foreign language; you may please say like
the
below words, after you finish the istikharah prayer
(=salah, namaz)
of two rak'ahs:
"o allah subhanallahu wa taala!. If this thing
(please
name the thing on which you do istikharah) is hayr
(=good) for
me, please help me to do it and show me
the rightest way in my
dream."
"o allah subhanallahu wa taala!. If this thing (please
name
the thing on which you do istikharah) is sharr
(=bad) for me, please help
me not to do it and show me
the rightest way in my dream."
You may
get some remarks in your dream and; you may
behave and decide according to
the type of your dream.
Actually, our prophet muhammad peace be
upon him does
not advise anyting on trying to get a mark and remark
in
the dream after the two rak'ahs of the prayer. He
advises only to look at
our heart and to decide
according to the (negative or positive) idea
which
comes to our mind at first after the istikharah prayer
(=namaz,
salah and dua). He also advises us to decide
what to do after praying the
called istikharah salah
and dua SEVEN times.
By the way, the best
way to do is the ISTISHARAH which
means to ask to a person who really has
good ideas or
expert on the ISTIKHARAH subject that you
wonder.
Moreover, the istisharah is better than the
istikharah;
because the istisharah is adviced in the
holy quran by Allah
subhanahu wa taala, while
istikharah is adviced by our prophet muhammad
peace be
upon him.
So, the istisharah is always necessary and is the
best
way for all muslim brothers and sisters in the world.
This means,
we muslims have to first ask to those who
know better than us on any
subject, and then, if we
like, we may also do istikharah ourselves
after
istisharah in order to be more satisfied. Please also
note that
istikharah is sunnah (=voluntary), not farz
(=not obligatary).
Since
your mother tongue is arabic, i kindly advise
you to read the holy quran
and follow the ayahs there.
This is the best way to follow in your
life. I mean,
istikharah souldn't surround all of our life
instead
of other best islamic worships.
These lines are the summary
of the istikharah subject
(and of course on the istisharah a little
bit).
May Allah subhanahu wa taala show the best ways of our
holy
religion -ISLAM- to all of us.
Best Regards,
Fi
amanillah.
Wassalamu alaikum.
