Terms of Use
Last updated: August 7, 2026
Welcome to Istikhara.app. By accessing or using this website and its services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. Please read these terms carefully before using the services provided by the website.
1. About Istikhara.app
Istikhara.app is an online service that provides Qur’an-based Istikhara and related information. Our purpose is to make Qur’an-based Istikhara more accessible and to provide explanations that may help users better understand an Istikhara result.
The method of Istikhara used by the website and its religious limitations are explained in our Disclaimer. By using the service, you acknowledge and agree to those limitations.
2. Acceptance of These Terms
By accessing Istikhara.app or using any of its services, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to these Terms of Use.
If you do not agree with any part of these terms, please do not use the website or its services.
3. Responsible Use of Istikhara
Istikhara should be used with an understanding of its purpose and nature.
Istikhara is not a substitute for reason, careful consideration, research, examination of the circumstances, or consultation with knowledgeable and trustworthy people. This is particularly important when making significant decisions concerning marriage, choosing a career or occupation, financial matters, business transactions, or other major life decisions.
Users are encouraged to carefully consider the matter, gather relevant information, and seek appropriate advice before turning to Istikhara.
Istikhara.app does not make decisions on behalf of its users, and an Istikhara result should not be treated as the sole basis for making an important decision.
For further information about the nature of Istikhara, its limitations, and the method used by Istikhara.app, please refer to our Disclaimer.
4. Use of an Istikhara Result
An Istikhara result provided by the website is intended to assist users who remain uncertain about a matter and should not be understood as a guarantee of success or failure.
An Istikhara result provided by Istikhara.app is not presented as a legally or religiously binding command, and the final decision regarding any matter remains the responsibility of the user.
If you are uncertain about how an Istikhara result should influence your decision, to what extent you should act upon it, or how Istikhara should be used in a particular matter, we recommend consulting your religious authority, a qualified Islamic scholar, or another knowledgeable and trustworthy person whom you rely upon for religious guidance.
5. Repeated Istikhara for the Same Matter
Users should not repeatedly perform Istikhara for the same matter merely for the purpose of obtaining a preferred or more favorable result.
If a substantial period of time has passed or the circumstances of the matter have materially changed, the situation may be considered a different matter. If you are uncertain about whether an Istikhara should be repeated or how to respond to a previous result, we recommend seeking guidance from a qualified and trustworthy religious authority or scholar.
6. Use of the Service for Fortune-Telling
Istikhara.app is not designed or intended for predicting the future, fortune-telling, divination, discovering the unseen (ghayb), or obtaining certain knowledge about unknown future events.
Users must not treat an Istikhara result as a definitive prediction of what will happen in the future or as a means of obtaining knowledge of matters that are unknown or unseen.
Further information on this subject is provided in our Disclaimer.
7. User Responsibility
Users are responsible for the decisions and actions they take as a result of using Istikhara.app.
Istikhara.app does not make decisions on behalf of users, and using an Istikhara result is entirely voluntary. Users should make their own decisions in light of the actual circumstances, available information, reason and sound judgment, consultation with appropriate people, and, where appropriate, religious guidance.
