What is the ruling on waiting for rain to fall at the beginning of every month?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Some people wait for rain to fall at the beginning of every month when the crescent moon of the month appears. Does this fall under the hadith:
a believer in the star, and is a disbeliever in Meمؤمن بالكوكب كافر بي؟
Sahih al-Bukhari 4147


Answer:
Rain has no connection to the beginning of the month. Rain falls whenever Allah wills, whether at the beginning of the month, in the middle, or at the end. It is subject to the will of Allah, not subject to the month, whether its beginning or its end. Yes.
