When one desires to make istikhara for marriage, then keep the person in mind when making niyah. Then do wudhu and perform Salaat. Then praise Allah, mention His Greatness and plead:


اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ تَقْدِرُ وَلَا أَقْدِرُ وَتَعْلَمُ وَلَا أَعْلَمُ وَأَنْتَ عَلَّامُالْغُيُوبِ ، فَإِنْ رَأَيْتَ أَنَّ فِي فُلَانَةِ خَيْرَاً لِي فِي دِينِي وَدُنْيَايَ وَآخِرَتِي فَاقْدُرْهَا لِي وَإِنْ كَانَ غَيْرُهَا خَيْرٌ مِنْهَا لِي فِي دِينِي وَآخِرَتِي فَاقْدُرْهَا لِي



"O Allah, You have power (control) and I have no control and You know and I do not know, and You know the condition of the Unseen. Thus if You see (deem fit) that this woman (here mention her name) is good for me concerning my Deen, world and Akhirah then grant me her control (make it possible that I marry her) and if besides her there be (another woman) which is better for me concerning Deen and Akhirah then specify her for me (grant me control over he)".

(Hisn)
N.B. A woman should read "him" instead of "her".

Yup.

Two non-obligatory rakaah.

Like how many times should someone do this before marrying or giving up on a woman? secondly, can you put the transliteration for the sake of those of us that are not sound in arabic.

Once is sufficient and if it's not clear then re do it again.

Salam. Is it true that after performing it, one will see certain signs either in dreams or whatever that will prove that the person is right for one?

Lovely... may Allah increase your imaan for this piece

I think I need to do this. Though, I'm in a relationship and I plan to marry next year, but I don't understand what is happening right now.
The fault is mine and not hers.

I need to observe this.
