Dua for Guidance - Istikhara

اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْتَخِيرُكَ بِعِلْمِكَ وَأَسْتَقْدِرُكَ بِقُدْرَتِكَ وَأَسْأَلُكَ مِنْ فَضْلِكَ الْعَظِيمِ فَإِنَّكَ تَقْدِرُ وَلَا أَقْدِرُ وَتَعْلَمُ وَلَا أَعْلَمُ وَأَنْتَ عَلَّامُ الْغُيُوبِ

Allahumma inni astakhiruka bi ilmika wa astaqdiruka bi qudratika wa as-aluka min fadlikal-adheem, fa innaka taqdiru wa la aqdiru wa ta'lamu wa la a'lamu wa anta allamul-ghuyub.

O Allah, I seek Your guidance by virtue of Your knowledge, and I seek ability by virtue of Your power, and I ask You of Your great bounty. You have power, I have none. And You know, I know not. You are the Knower of hidden things.

Sahih al-Bukhari 1162

A little clarity

Finding and understanding a daily dua

Where can I find daily duas with English meanings?

Browse the dua collection or search for an occasion such as sleeping, eating or travelling. Open an entry to see its available Arabic text, transliteration, English meaning and source reference.

How do I check the source of a dua?

Look for the reference on the individual entry and check it in the named source. A missing reference should be reported through the contact form. A reference alone is not a claim that United Islam has independently authenticated every entry.

Are transliteration and translation the same?

No. Transliteration helps you follow the sound of Arabic in Latin letters. Translation helps you understand the meaning in English. Read the labels on each entry so you can distinguish the two.
