Istikhara without answer
Allah is 'Al-Mujeeb' - The one who responds
My question is that I´ve been praying Istikhara during many days but until now I don´t have an answer, in this case, what do I have to do?
I told my wife to read it also, but the same is happening to her.
Please advice.
Best Regards,
SalmanAhmed

As salamu alaykum SalmanAhmed,
I don´t know the exactly answer to your question, but I would advice you to read the articles written in the link above on this page, you can read Istikhara question and answers, this way you will know for sure that you are performing the prayer in the way it should be done, insha´Allah.
All my Unconditional Respect,

Salman, you are misunderstanding the nature of Istikhara. So many people seem to think that Istikhara results in a dream, or a dream in which we see colors, or some kind of other clear sign. This is not necessarily true. The true nature of Istikhara is that you pray to Allah to bring the good to you, and keep the harm from you, and then you proceed with whatever feels right to you, trusting that Allah is guiding you to the best choice.
So just go ahead and make your choice, and proceed, and trust that Allah is guiding you.
Wael
