Question:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If someone gets a proposal and they have done istikhara (for 2 weeks) and they haven\u2019t seen a dream\/vision or they don\u2019t have a feeling regarding the matter – what should they do in this situation?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Answer:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Istikhara can be done 7 times, one should not rely on seeing a dream or vision as it may not always happen. However, doing istikhara is seeking the help of Allah in a situation where you need assistance in decision-making. Once you have completed istikhara (2 rakats prayer alongside the dua) then you have fulfilled your duty of calling to Allah and seeking his help, from now, whatever decision you make shall inshallah include khayr and goodness as you have asked Allah for help for it. So, you may not feel anything, however, you will find some goodness in the decision you make.<\/span><\/p>\n
