Time limit to perform Istikhaarah Salaah
Question
I want to read isthikaara for a marriage proposal. How many days should it be read for?
Answer
There is no time limit mentioned in the mubaarak Hadith in regard to performing istikhaarah salaah. Hence, you may continue performing it for as long as you wish.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
