إِذَا أَرَادَ أَحَدُكُمْ أَمْراً فَلَا يُشَاوِرْ فِيهِ أَحَداً مِنَ النَّاسِ حَتَّى يَبْدَأَ فَيُشَاوِرَ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى قَالَ قُلْتُ وَ مَا مُشَاوَرَةُ اللَّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ قَالَ يَبْدَأُ فَيَسْتَخِيرُ اللَّهَ فِيهِ أَوَّلًا ثُمَّ يُشَاوِرُ فِيهِ فَإِنَّهُ إِذَا بَدَأَ بِاللَّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى أَجْرَى لَهُ الْخِيَرَةَ عَلَى لِسَانِ مَنْ يَشَاءُ مِنَ الْخَلْقِ.

Hadith.1550 - Harun ibn Khurajah narrate from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) who said: "If one of you intends to undertake a matter, let him not consult any person before first consulting Allah (swt), the Blessed and Exalted." I asked: "What is meant by consulting Allah (swt), may I be your ransom?" Imam (as) said: "He should first seek guidance (istikhara) from Allah (swt) regarding it, then he may consult others about it. For if one begins by turning to Allah (swt), the Blessed and Exalted, He will guide him to the best through the tongue of whomever He wills from among His creation."
