The Prayer for Seeking Rain (Salat Al-Istisqa)

1503. hadíth

وَقَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «كَانَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ يُصَلِّي لِلاِسْتِسْقَاءِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَ يَسْتَسْقِي وَ هُوَ قَاعِدٌ» وَقَالَ «بَدَأَ بِالصَّلاَةِ قَبْلَ اَلْخُطْبَةِ وَ جَهَرَ بِالْقِرَاءَةِ.

Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (a.s) said: "The Messenger of Allah (saws) would perform two Rak'ahs of prayer for rain (Istisqa') and supplicate for rain while seated." He also said: "He began with the prayer before the sermon and recited aloud."
