O Allah, I seek the counsel of Your Knowledge, and I seek the help of Your Omnipotence, and I beseech You for Your Magnificent Grace. Surely, You are Capable and I am not. You know and I know not, and You are the Knower of the unseen. O Allah, if You know that this matter [then mention the thing to be decided] is good for me in my religion and in my life and for my welfare in the life to come, - [or say: in this life and the afterlife] - then ordain it for me and make it easy for me, then bless me in it. And if You know that this matter is bad for me in my religion and in my life and for my welfare in the life to come, - [or say: in this life and the afterlife] - then distance it from me, and distance me from it, and ordain for me what is good wherever it may be, and help me to be content with it. اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْتَخِيرُكَ بِعِلْمَكَ، وَأَسْتَقْدِرُكَ بِقُدْرَتِكَ، وَأَسْأَلُكَ مِنْ فَضْلِكَ الْعَظِيمِ، فَإِنَّكَ تَقْدِرُ وَلَا أَقْدِرُ، وَتَعْلَمُ، وَلَا أَعْلَمُ، وَأَنْتَ عَلَّامُ الْغُيُوبِ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ- خَيْرٌ لِي فِي دِينِي وَمَعَاشِي وَعَاقِبَةِ أَمْرِي- عَاجِلِهِ وَآجِلِهِ- فَاقْدُرْهُ لِي وَيَسِّرْهُ لِي ثُمَّ بَارِكْ لِي فِيهِ، وَإِنْ كُنْتَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ شَرٌّ لِي فِي دِينِي وَمَعَاشِي وَعَاقِبَةِ أَمْرِي- عَاجِلِهِ وَآجِلِهِ- فَاصْرِفْهُ عَنِّي وَاصْرِفْنِي عَنْهُ وَاقْدُرْ لِيَ الْخَيْرَ حَيْثُ كَانَ ثُمَّ أَرْضِنِي بِهِ Allaahumma innee astakheeruka biilmika, wa astaqdiruka biqudratika, wa asaluka min fadhlikal-Adheem, fainnaka taqdiru wa laa aqdiru, wa talamu, wa laa alamu, wa Anta Allaamul-Ghuyoob Allaahumma in kunta talamu anna haathal-amra-[then mention the thing to be decided] Khayrun lee fee deenee wa maaashee wa aaqibati amree aw Aajili amri wa aajilihi - Faqdirhu wa yassirhu lee thumma baarik lee feehi, wa in kunta talamu anna haathal-amra sharrun lee fee deenee wa maaashee wa aaqibati amree - aw Aajili amri wa aajilihi - Fasrifhu annee wasrifnee anhu waqdir liyal-khayra haythu kaana thumma ardhinee bihi. Whoever seeks the counsel of the Creator will not regret it and whoever seeks the advice of the believers will feel confident about his decisions. Allah said in the Quran: And consult them in the affair. Then when you have taken a decision, put your trust in Allah. Al-Bukhari 7/162 and Aal-Imran 3:159. Jabir bin Abdullah (Radi Allahu) said The Prophet (Peace be upon him) used to teach us to seek Allahs Counsel in all matters, as he used to teach us a Surah from the Quran. He would say When anyone of you has an important matter to decide, let him pray two Rakahs other than the obligatory prayer, and then say this dua.
