Is it possible to revert istikhara results?
Dua for Istikhaarah
Assalam.o.alaikum! A guy from my acqaintances send his proposal for me, but there were some issues regarding family values. We both were very similiar in habits, likes & dislikes. He was very caring and we were not thinking about anyother option. His father consult a mufti for an istikhara and that Mufti saw 5 dead bodies in dream. On my advice that guy had done istikhara himself. He saw a pack of flour but in blood. And he also saw that he got his wrist cut. But when it comes to our hearts, its totally opposite. We are praying to Allah and we have given 5 bakras in sadqa and distributed bulk of flour packs among poors, but we cannot understand how to revert our fate. And what will be consequences if we go against Allah's will.
Need guidance of experts who know anything related to this.
Assalam.o.alaikum

You are the person who should have done istikhara. If I have an important decision to make regarding a personal matter, it is my prayers that have to be submitted to Allah, not a religious leader. The responses the mufti received and what your fiance may have experienced may not have anything to do with whether the two of you should get married. On a personal note, what I read was weird. What if what the mufti saw was related to another matter removed from you and the possibility of you getting married? If you meet and take the time to discuss important personal concerns and get to know one another better, that is a better indicator if you should marry the man than a mufti's prayers and dreams. You and your potential husband need to know that the two of you are compatible and will be able to live happily with one another. Making extra prayers and making dua, asking Allah to guide you and protect you from fitnah is always beneficial, along with asking Allah to keep shaitaan's work away from the two of you. You can ask family member or friends to make dua for you to have a happy married life. But coming to conclusions and reading someone else's bad dreams is not always a good idea.
There is a lot of misunderstanding about istikhara in the Muslim community. Please go through the articles on this site about how to do it. The topic has been done to death.
Isitkhara is only made after a decision is formed. And what you see in your dreams isn't relevant let alone for what anyone else sees. There is no proxy for doing isitkhara. If your heart leans towards it, go ahead with the alliance and continue to do istikhara, both of you. ON YOUR OWN! No muftis or parents or pious cousins. Make lots of duas to Allah as well.
Its mentioned in the dua itself. If what you decide is good for you Allah will make it easy for you. If not you will be turned away from it whether through difficulty in it or feeling negative towards it.
Don't rely your decision on some pseudo knowledge. Like I mentioned, there is a lot of misunderstanding about istikhara. Read more!
