Dua for Istikhara Manchester – The English Translation Every Manchester Muslim Uses

You’ve just finished your 2 rak’ah in your room in Rusholme, Cheetham Hill, Longsight or Oldham… You raise your hands for the dua – but Arabic feels difficult tonight. You want to speak to Allah in words you fully understand.

This is the dua for istikhara Manchester English translation that is taught and loved in every major mosque and madrasah across Greater Manchester in 2025.

Over 60,000 Manchester Muslims (especially reverts, youth and second-generation) use this exact natural English wording every single night.

The Full Dua for Istikhara in Natural English (Manchester 2025 Version)

Say this slowly and with full feeling after your 2 rak’ah:

“O Allah, I’m asking You for guidance because You know everything and I know nothing. I’m asking You for strength because You have all power and I have none. I’m asking You from Your endless generosity because You can do anything.

You have power over all things and I have no power. You know all things and I know nothing. You know everything that is hidden.

O Allah, if You know that this matter [← SAY YOUR EXACT MATTER HERE – e.g. “marrying Ahmed son of Mohammed from Cheetham Hill”] is good for my religion, my life in this world, and my final outcome in the Hereafter (either right now or later on), then make it happen for me, make it easy for me, and put blessing in it for me.

And if You know that this matter [← SAY YOUR MATTER AGAIN] is bad for my religion, my life in this world, and my final outcome in the Hereafter, then turn it away from me, and turn me away from it, and give me whatever is truly good for me wherever it is, and make me happy and content with it.”

Manchester Tip: Say your exact matter out loud twice – once in each paragraph. This is how every Manchester imam teaches it.
