Question

Can I do istikharah for knowing the truth or is there any dua for revealing the truth?

Recently, I have been stuck into some confusions and doubts about my partner. But I really don't know if he is telling the truth or not. I saw many hints that's why I just cannot put trust on him. It's killing me inside. I cannot concentrate in my daily work. I don't know if it's true or shaytan is making me think things? So I badly want to know the truth so that I can stable my mind and move on. Is there any solution or any dua?

Answer

The way that the world operates is that the nabi's statements are conclusive and absolutely precise and true. After the wahi has ended then we cannot be speculating in the unseen. We cannot say with precision that this is or this is not i.e. matters that refer to the ghayb.

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