ArabicTranslitMeaning

الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ ۝ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ ۝ مَالِكِ يَوْمِ الدِّينِ ۝ إِيَّاكَ نَعْبُدُ وَإِيَّاكَ نَسْتَعِينُ ۝ اهْدِنَا الصِّرَاطَ الْمُسْتَقِيمَ ۝ صِرَاطَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ غَيْرِ الْمَغْضُوبِ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا الضَّالِّينَ

"Alhamdu lillahi Rabbil-'alameen. Ar-Rahmanir-Raheem. Maliki Yawmid-Deen. Iyyaka na'budu wa iyyaka nasta'een. Ihdinas-Siratal-Mustaqeem. Siratal-ladheena an'amta 'alayhim ghayril-maghdoobi 'alayhim wa lad-dallleen. Ameen."

Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds. The Most Gracious, Most Merciful. Master of the Day of Judgment. You alone we worship and You alone we ask for help. Guide us to the straight path. The path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor, not of those who have evoked Your anger or of those who are astray. Amen.

Scholarly Notes & Recognized Views

Seeing a specific dream or color is NOT a requirement of Istikhara. Istikhara creates heart inclination, ease in the right decision, or natural impediment in an unfavorable decision.
