Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I am the Friday preacher, and whenever I want to deliver a sermon, I pray the prayer of istikhara regarding the topic I wish to preach about. Is my action prescribed?
Answer:
No, it is not prescribed. This is not prescribed, and no one has done it. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did not do this. Choose the topic you see to be beneficial for the audience and preach about it; it does not require istikhara. Yes.
