Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. When we prayed the prayer for rain, the imam stood and made supplication with an audible voice using the loudspeaker, and the worshippers said "Ameen" to his supplication. So I intended to leave him and made supplication on my own. Is my action correct?
Answer:
The imam's action is contrary to the Sunnah. The Sunnah is that he makes supplication in the sermon for the prayer for rain, and he does not make any other supplication through the loudspeaker. Yes.
