The Prayer for Seeking Rain (Salat Al-Istisqa)

1501. hadíth

وَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ إِذَا اِسْتَسْقَى قَالَ « اَللَّهُمَّ اِسْقِ عِبَادَكَ وَ بَهَائِمَكَ وَ اُنْشُرْ رَحْمَتَكَ وَ أَحْيِ بِلاَدَكَ اَلْمَيْتَةَ » يُرَدِّدُهَا ثَلاَثَ مَرَّاتٍ.

Whenever the Messenger of Allah (saws) prayed for rain (Salat al-Istisqa'), he would say: Allahumma isqi ‘ibadaka wa baha’imaka wa unshur rahmataka wa ahyi biladaka al-maytah "O’ Allah (swt), provide water to Your servants and Your animals, spread Your mercy, and revive Your dead land." He would repeat this three times.
