Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
A questioner from Yemen says: The imam of the mosque called for the prayer for rain after the Friday prayer. Is this valid, or is it a bid'ah (religious innovation)?
The Shaykh:
There is no basis for this statement, so the prayer for rain is not called for after the Friday prayer. Yes.
The presenter:
When is it performed?
The Shaykh:
The prayer for rain is performed in its time when the sun has risen, it is said.
The presenter:
On which day of the week?
The Shaykh:
Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah bless you.
