Question

I am reciting istighfaar and observing taqwah to get rid of my world problems like financial and other. Is this niyyat ok when reciting istighfaar and observing taqwah for these problems?

Answer

Yes. However, do it mainly considering it as an obligation to Allah Ta`ala and the worldly means are just a bonus.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
