«إذا هم أحدكم بالأمر فليركع ركعتين من غير الفريضة ثم ليقل: اللهم إني أستخيرك بعلمك وأستقدرك بقدرتك وأسألك من فضلك العظيم فإنك تقدر ولا أقدر وتعلم ولا أعلم وأنت علام الغيوب، اللهم فإن كنت تعلم هذا الأمر وتسميه باسمه خيرا لي في ديني ومعاشي وعاقبة أمري فاقدره لي ويسره لي ثم بارك لي فيه، اللهم وإن كنت تعلمه شرا لي في ديني ومعاشي وعاقبة أمري فاصرفني عنه واصرفه عني واقدر لي الخير حيث كان ثم رضني به»
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
"When one of you intends to do some (important) matter, let him pray two rak'ahs other than the obligatory prayer, then let him supplicate: 'Allahumma inni astakhiruka bi-'ilmika wa astaqdiruka bi-qudratika wa as'aluka min fadlikal-'azim, fa-innaka taqdiru wa la aqdiru wa ta'lamu wa la a'lamu wa anta 'allamul-ghuyub. Allahumma fa-in kunta ta'lamu hadhal-amra (and he names it) khayran li fi dini wa ma'ashi wa 'aqibati amri faqdurhu li wa yassirhu li thumma barik li fihi. Allahumma wa in kunta ta'lamuhu sharran li fi dini wa ma'ashi wa 'aqibati amri fasrifni 'anhu wasrifhu 'anni waqdur liyal-khayra haythu kana thumma raddini bihi' (O Allah, I seek good from You by means of Your knowledge, and I ask You for strength by means of Your power, and I ask You of Your immense bounty, for You have power and I have none, You know and I do not know, and You are the Knower of all things unseen. O Allah, if You know that this matter (here he names the matter) is good for me in my religion, my worldly affairs, my life and my final outcome, then decree it for me, make it easy for me, and then bless me in it. And O Allah, if You know that this matter is bad for me in my religion, my worldly affairs and my final outcome, then turn me away from it and turn it away from me, and decree good for me wherever it may be, and then make me pleased with it)."
