YOGYAKARTA Muslims are advised to pray istikharah when faced with confusing, doubt, and uncertain problems. The reason is, the benefit of qisharah prayer is to ask for goodness for the choices that are presented to a person. This benefit makes this sunnah worship highly recommended.

In the book Serba-Serbi Istikharah Prayer written by Syafri Muhammad Noor, Lc., it is explained that the word 'istikharah' is interpreted as asking for goodness. This prayer is done in order to ask Allah SWT to choose one of the best among several choices.

This prayer is highly recommended to be carried out. The recommendation cannot be separated from the benefits of the istikharah itself. Here are some of the priorities of the istikharah prayer, reported by NU Online.

Performing the qisharah prayer has benefits so that people who practice the worship are destined to a better case than what is expected. This means that a person who isisticharah means asking that Allah give the best choice.

Istikharah prayers are synonymous with difficult choices. Someone who is faced with confusing choices is highly recommended to perform this prayer. It is recommended that Istikharah continue to be carried out until the belief of the heart from God comes to choose what is best. If the heart is felt never felt, Allah SWT will move the hearts of its servants through its own decisions.

The answer to the istikharah prayer is not instantaneous. It takes a lot of effort to pray and the foresight of the sign to read the answer. Then, how do we know the answer to the qisharah prayer?

Launching an article on VOI, Ustaz Adi Hidayat explained how to find out the answer to a person's prayer. In his lecture which was uploaded on the Audio Da'wah YouTube channel, it was said that the qisharah answer was divided into three categories.

The first category is the emergence of a tendency of the heart to choose, the second is the answer through dreams, and the third is the instructions given by Allah SWT through other people's intermediaries. People who ask for instructions from a difficulty must also be sensitive and observant in capturing the answers given to them.

Not only that, but a Muslim must also be tawakal and be patient in getting the answer given by Allah SWT. Because Allah knows what is best for his servant.
