Istikarah

[TheMuslimKnight]

what are the consquences of going against istikarah? Is there anyone who has gotten a negative istakarah for marriage but yet has had a good marriage? Does a negative istikarah guarantee hardships or can you still have a bright future with your spouse?

Istikhara is fulfilling the right of Allah swt upon you to seek his guidance. What do you define as a 'negative' result of istikhara??? maybe that would help us answer your question more fully...

You don't need to make istikhara for marriage per se but rather for the individual concerned as marriage is prescribed and there is no doubt in this matter.

May Allah make things easy for you. Ameen

In your mind, what does it mean if the istikhara is negative?

Isn't istikhara asking Allah to bless you in it and make it easy for you it is is good for you and asking Allah to take it away from you if it is bad. So a negative would mean it is taken away from you. I've also heard it said if you pray istakhara and get a lot of obstacles and hardships in pursuing it, don't push and cling too much to your decision, maybe the hardships are your answer.

We pray, proceed with the decision we think is best. If the marriage doesn't work out later on, that doesn't mean the isikhara failed. It could be that going through a bad marriage or divorce was actually what was best for you in this world, in your religion, and in the akhira. Alhamdulillah, He is so full of mercy.
