It is certainly a valid amal in Islam. Follow the link and read yourself:
Re: Istakhara Har kaaam main…?
do u know what isakhara means???
its simply a duaa saying that “Allah if this act is good for me, make it easy for me, and if it is bad for me, keep me away from it”…
what exactly is so wrong in making such a duaa???
of course, additions like the seeing dreams, or seeing colors, or getting some ‘signs’ r wrong, but nothing so unIslamic about istakhara itself…
very obviously, nor the originator of the thread or the author of the writing actually knows what istakhara means…
just another cheap shot at demeaning ahadith…

WHAT IS ISTIKHAARAH?
** Istikhaarah is to seek guidance from Allah when one is faced with a problem
to which no solution is apparent.**
Whenever a person is faced with a difficult problem, or becomes hesitant in
making a decision and his knowledge of the matter is insufficient to guide
him then after seeking advice from trusted friends he should turn to Allah
and beseech His grace. He should willingly and with an open heart and mind
supplicate for divine guidance and ask for direction so that the problem is
solved in his own best interest. The Du'aa at such an occasion is called
Istikhaarah.
Istikhaarah is in fact an invaluable teaching of Rasulullah (Sallallaahu
Alayhi Wasallam) with which the Muslims have been favoured. This blessing
could give solace to many for all times to come. It is related in the Hadith
that Rasulullah (SAW) use to teach the Istikhaarah to the Sahaabah (RA) like
the Qur'an is taught to children. In another Hadith it is stated that 'He
does not fail who makes Istikhaarah and he does not regret who makes
Mashwarah (consultation).
In the Masnoon Istikhaarah, after one has carried out his responsibility as
best as one can, one should hand over the entire matter and oneself to the
limitless knowledge of Allah Ta'ala. By resorting to Istikhaarah one is now
retrieved of making a decision on ones own.
Whenever counsel is sought from a respectable and experienced person, it is
expected that he will give good advise and assist to the best of his
ability. Similarly Istikhaarah is to seek counsel that the all-Knowing and
Merciful Allah? Once Istikhaarah is made then Allah Ta'ala will surely guide
him to do what is best for him.
Now there can be no perplexity. Only that will happen which Allah Ta'ala
wills and which is good for ones own sake though one may not be able to see
it immediately. It is not necessary that one must experience or see an
evident change or vision. Allah Ta'ala alone knows what is best for His
servants. It is related in the Hadith that 'Success and good tidings for the
son of Aadam (Insaan) is in performing Istikhaarah and his misfortune lies
in not making Istikhaarah'.
** METHOD OF ISTIKHAARAH**
When making Istikhaarah begin with performing two Rakaats Nafl Salaat. Then
with all sincerity recite the following Du'a.
- Allaahumma innee astakheeruka bi ilmika wa-astaqdiruka biqudratika wa-as'aluka min fadhlika al-adheem. Fa innaka taqdiru walaa aqdiru. Wa ta'lamu walaa a'alamu wa anta allaamul ghuyoob. Allaahumma in kunta ta'lamu anna haadhal-amr khayrun liy fiy deeniy wa-ma'aashiy wa-aaqibat amriy, fa'qdruhliy wa-yassirh liy thumma baarik liy feehi. Wa in-kunta ta'lamu anna haadhal amr sharrun liy fiy deeniy wa-ma'aashiy was-'aaqibat amriy. Fa asrifh annee wa-srif 'anhu. Wa aqdurh liyal khayr hayth kaana thumma a-rdhiniy bihee
Trans: O Allah!! Behold I ask You the good through Your Knowledge, and
ability through Your Power, and beg (Your favour) out of Your infinite
Bounty. For surely You have Power; I have none. You know all; I know not.
You are the Great Knower of all things.
O Allah! If in Your Knowledge this matter be good for my faith (Deen), for
my livelihood, and for the consequences of my affairs, then ordain it for
me, and make it easy for me, and bless me therein.
But if in Your Knowledge, this matter be bad for my faith (Deen) for my
livelihood, and for the consequences of my affairs, then turn it away from
me, and turn me away therefrom, and ordain for me the good wherever it be,
and cause me to be pleased therewith.*
While reciting this Du'aa when one reaches HAADHAL AMR (THIS MATTER) at both places he should think of his problem.
** May Allah guide and assist us all, Aameen.**

Re: Istakhara Har kaaam main…?
^ although talking to you is against normal sense, I want reader of your “misguided” and “misdirected” thread to know what is actually “istikhara” what it “means” and how it is done. So Like the Allah SWT says in the Quran "
Yahdihee bihee katheran wa yudhilu bihee katheeran" - verily it guides many and many it leads astray -
The same is for such events as this of yours - You are now doubt “right now” the most misguided individual on this forum. Or you are “right now” trying to misguide oithers! You and pervaizis like you cannot find any fodder elsewhere so you chose this forum.
Any how, here is Istikhara:
Your urdu post is basically “wrong” in its explanation of istikhara and “misleading” in its use of the verses of the Quran regarding “Azla’am”.
What is Istikhara and what does the word mean and is it from Sunnah of the Prophet SAW and is it recommended in the Quran?
Istikhara: A Sunnah act prescribed through authentic narration of Rasul Allah SAW to ask Allah SWT for divine goodness in a planned act of a believer.
Keywords / phrases: believer, sunnah, authentic narrations, goodness in a plan
Arabic of Istikhara: act to find goodness
root - kher - good
Is it in Quran to ask Allah for guidance, well being, personal needs?
Answer: Yes -
Suran Naml Ayah 62
27:62 Or, Who listens to the (soul) distressed when it calls on Him, and Who relieves its suffering, and makes you (mankind) inheritors of the earth? (Can there be another) god besides Allah. Little it is that ye heed!
Also,
Surah Baqarah verse 186:
2:186 When My servants ask thee concerning Me, I am indeed close (to them): I listen to the prayer of every suppliant when he calleth on Me: Let them also, with a will, Listen to My call, and believe in Me: That they may walk in the right way.
So how does one ask Allah SWT when one is troubled about a matter?
Well those who accept the Sunnah (muslims) will use the method of the Prophet SAW and how he prescribed it to be done as verified through authentic narrations.
And those who are rejectors of Sunnah (like who follow Pervaiz and others) can go try and invent their own way.!
What is Azla’am:
Azlam was a game or trick compared to todays lottery. Each arrow had a name on it. Like a ticket with a number in lottery or a raffle.
Is that istikhara? Answer : NO
**Who should do istikhara? **The person in the situation or concern should do it themselves as that is the prescribed Sunnah of the Prophet SAW.
No need to ramble on. The issue has been discussed quite a bit here before

Re: Istakhara Har kaaam main…?
there u have it…
in this duaa u will find the meaning of istakhara…
a very simple duaa, saying that if the particular action is good for me, make it easy for me, and if it is not, protect me from its ill consequences…
nothing unIslamic about it, in fact this is what we shud always have in mind…
we shud always pray for this…
and if anyone thinks that this is wrong, then i dont think he really knows about Islam…
and if anyone associates other things to istakhara, then its his/her own misunderstanding of it…
Re: Istakhara Har kaaam main.........?
Imranjaff is out here to impose the most strcit version of Islam! Even by force!

Re: Istakhara Har kaaam main.........?
did u first get what istakhara means or not????
its not come from the word Khair yea mada bara wase o Almani hai aur achi chiz ke liye istamaal hoota hai.Maal o doolaat aur Iqtadaar aur ikhtiyaar ke liye bhi istamaal hoota hai is ka opposite word shar hai.Jiasay humharay Khairaat ke means quran se diff liye jaty hai.Jaisay humharay haan Khairaat ke jaty hai Quran main in means k liye yea lafaz nahi aya.
Khair o Shar ka masla is waqt se falsafay ka moozoo chala araha hai jaab se insaan nay soochna shoroo kia is ka itminan Baksh haal abb taak nahi mil saka.Quran is falsifyana Bahas main nahi Ulajhta Woh kahta hai ke Ashiya e Kainaat hoo yea Insani Salhayaatain in main koi bhi shay zaat e khud Khair aur shar nahi hooty in ka istamaal inhay Khair aur shar bana daita hai.
Now tht prove ke yea lafaz Istakhara khair ke maday se nahi nikla
