استخارہ قرآن مجید
Twenty-seventh: Quoting the book of al-Da’awat by al-Khatib al-Mustaghfiri, Sayyid Ibn Tawus has reported the Holy Prophet (s) to have said:
“When you want to seek a portent (tafa’’ul) in the Book of Allah the Almighty and All-majestic, you may recite Surah al-Tawhid three time, invoke Allah’s blessings upon the Holy Prophet (s) and his Household three times, and say these words:
اَللّٰهُمَّ اِنِّىْ تَفَاَّلْتُ بِكِتَابِكَ
O Allah, I am seeking portent in Your Book
اے معبود !میں تیری کتاب سے فال لے رہا ہوں
وَ تَوَكَّلْتُ عَلَيْكَ
and putting my trust in You;
تجھی پر میرا بھروسہ ہے
فَاَرِنِىْ مِنْ كِتَابِكَ مَا هُوَ مَكْتُوْمٌ
so, (please) show me from Your Book what is concealed
پس مجھے اپنی کتاب میں سے وہ چیز دکھا
مِنْ سِرِّكَ الْمَكْنُوْنِ فِىْ غَيْبِكَ۔
from Your secret that is hoarded in Your knowledge of the unseen.
جو پوشیدہ ہے تیرے چھپے ہوئے راز سے تیرے پردۂ غیب میں۔
You may then open a (complete) copy of the Holy Qur’an and take the portent from the first line on the first side (i.e. of the two pages) without counting the papers or the lines.”
