Question

When reading salaatul istikhara, can one ask if a certain thing will be a success if done? Is it a valid question to ask?

Answer

Istikhaarah is not done for these types of reasons. These types of matters should be referred to some righteous experienced aalim.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Ask Mufti Online

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
