There is a particular brother that I am interested in from marriage. I have performed Istikhara several times. I get mixed responses. What to do?
Question
What I mean by mixed responses is that my heart and mind right after I wake up is inclined in one way, however the people that I am surrounded with give me negative feed back. Which is the best to follow?
Answer
Respected Brother-in-Islam
Assalaamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullaahi Wa Barakaatuhu
We suggest you discuss the negative responses with your seniors as well as continue with Istikhaara.
and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
