The Exact Istikhara Dua for Marriage London (Copy-Paste Version)
After salam, say:
Allahumma inni astakhiruka bi’ilmika… (full opening – same as normal istikhara)
Then the marriage part:
Allahumma in kunta ta‘lamu anna hadhal-amra: al-zawaju min [FULL NAME + father’s name + any known detail] khayrun lee fee deeni wa ma‘aashi wa ‘aaqibati amree faqdurhu lee wa yassirhu lee thumma barik lee feehi
Wa in kunta ta‘lamu anna hadhal-amra: al-zawaju min [REPEAT FULL NAME] sharrun lee… fasrifhu ‘annee…
English meaning (London sisters say this too): “O Allah, if marriage to [Ahmed son of Mohammed from Ilford] is good for my deen, my life and my akhirah – make it easy and bless it for me. If it is bad – remove him from my life and remove me from him, and give me who is truly best for me.”
