Istikhara for a menstruating woman by supplication without prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a woman is menstruating and wants to seek Allah's guidance (istikhara) in a matter, is it permissible for her to recite only the istikhara supplication, without prayer?
Answer:
It is not permissible; because she delays the istikhara until she is purified in order to pray and supplicate after the prayer, as mentioned in the hadith, so she postpones the istikhara until purity.
