Question:
The questioner says: If I want to recite the supplication of istikharah, do I have to pray two rak'ahs for every matter in which I want to seek guidance, or can I pray two rak'ahs and then seek guidance if I have two matters? Please advise us, and may Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
Pray two rak'ahs and make the supplication for whatever matters you want, whether it is one matter, two, three, or ten. Pray two rak'ahs and make the supplication for all the matters, naming them by name: such-and-such a matter, such-and-such a matter, such-and-such a matter, and so on. Yes.
