Consulting one's parents and family elders with regards to nikaah
Question
I want to ask about istakhara. I will do it according to the Sunnah method. I want to know about my marriage. I want to know about love marriage and is that guy good for my life or not? Can you tell me what sign I will get in the dream? Second if I get a negative answer, can I do istakhara again? If again negative, can I do it again and if third time I get it positive should I marry that person?
Answer
The more important thing is mashwarah and consulting with one's family elders. Listen to what they have to say and accept their advice.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
