Guess work in Istikhara
Question
My question is regarding Istikhara dua. If I need to take decision so I recite Istikhara and choose my option through paper with yes or no, is it accepted in Islam?
Answer
This is not istikhaarah, it is guess work.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

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.
