Everyone needs a guideline whether he lives in a Muslim society or he is the inhabitant of the non-Muslim society, so that he should lead a successful life. Almighty Allah sent messengers for the guidance and showing right path to the human beings. They imparted awareness to the people that this earthly life is not a reality but the ife after death is the undying reality. Life on earth means to achieve the real life, so that our matter must follow the direction of life hereafter. Our Holy Prophet (S.W.A) was sent last of all messengers who was entrusted the sacred duty of universal direction for all people living in any part of earth. This honorable sort of direction and guidance has been given for the people till the Day of Judgment. Our Holy prophet (S.W.A) has imparted the education of Istikhara for the betterment of future and avoidance of losses to the "Ummah". The tendency of making mess of Sharai style of life and tennets of shariah among the Muslim Ummah have not only spared pious practice of Istikhara but many ambiguous and controversial ways have been used for this pious action of Istikhara. So it is the imperative of time to let the "Ummah" be told what the significance of Istikhara is and how it ought to be performed. This research paper elucidates the true method of Istikhara according to Sunnah in practical details. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
