اللهُمَّ إنِّي أسْتَخِيرُكَ بِعِلْمِكَ، وأسْتَقْدِرُكَ بِقُدْرَتِكَ، وأسألُكَ من فَضْلِكَ العَظِيم؛ فَإِنَّكَ تَقْدِرُ وَلا أقْدِرُ، وتَعْلَمُ ولا أعْلَمُ، وَأَنْتَ عَلاَّمُ الغُيُوبِ؛ اللهُمَّ إِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ هَذا الأمْرَ خَيْرٌ لِي في دِيْنِي وَمَعَاشِي وَعَاقِبَةِ أمْرِي، أو قال: عَاجِلِ أَمْرِي وَآجِلِهِ، فَاقْدُرْهُ لِي وَيَسِّرْهُ لِي ثُمَّ بَارِكْ لِي فِيه؛ وَإِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ هَذَا الأَمْرَ شَرٌّ لِي فِي دِيْنِي وَمَعَاشِي وَعَاقِبَةِ أَمْرِي؛ أو قال: عاجِلِ أَمْرِي وَآجِلِهِ، فَاصْرِفْهُ عَنِّي وَاصْرِفْنِي عَنْهُ، وَاقْدُرْ لِيَ الخَيْرَ حَيْثُ كان، ثُمَّ رَضِّنِي بِه

O Allah, I seek Your guidance through Your knowledge, and I seek ability through Your power, and I ask You of Your immense bounty. For You have power and I do not, and You know and I do not, and You are the Knower of all that is unseen. O Allah, if You know that this matter is good for me in my religion, my livelihood, and the outcome of my affairs—or he said: in my immediate and future affairs—then decree it for me, make it easy for me, and then bless it for me. And if You know that this matter is bad for me in my religion, my livelihood, and the outcome of my affairs—or he said: in my immediate and future affairs—then turn it away from me and turn me away from it, and decree what is good for me wherever it may be, then make me content with it.

Când se recită
In the Sunni tradition, Dua Istikhara is recited when seeking Allah's guidance about a permissible choice, such as marriage, work or travel. It is traditionally said after voluntary prayer, asking Allah to facilitate what is good and turn away what is harmful. It is not tied to a particular season.
De unde provine
Dua Istikhara is taught in a hadith narrated by Jabir ibn Abdullah and recorded in Sahih al-Bukhari. Jabir describes the Prophet Muhammad teaching his companions to seek Allah's guidance in their affairs. It is a prophetic supplication, not a verse from the Qur'an.
