Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks about the supplication for guidance (istikharah): when is it performed?

Answer:
It is performed after the two rak'ahs. You pray two rak'ahs, and then after you say the taslim, you make the supplication that was transmitted for istikharah. The supplication for istikharah is not made during prostration; rather, it is made after you have finished the two rak'ahs.
