Istikhara : Seeking Allah's council - Part 2 (Instructions & warnings) : الاستخارة

This video contains important things to consider by some one who intends to perform istikhara. It was narrated that Jaabir ibn 'Abd-Allah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) taught us to pray istikhaarah concerning all our affairs as he would teach us a soorah of the Qur'aan. Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 6382. Al-Haafiz Ibn Hajar (may Allah have mercy on him) said: It includes both important and insignificant matters, because important matters may stem from insignificant matters.
