Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The questioner says: We see some people, after the prayer for rain and its sermon, facing the qiblah while standing and raising their hands. Was this reported?

Answer:
This is the sunnah (recommended practice). Yes, did you not hear the hadith that he turned toward the qiblah and supplicated, (peace and blessings be upon him), and turned his cloak? I heard it recently. So every Muslim, when the imam turns his cloak, those present turn their cloaks, face the qiblah, and supplicate, acting in accordance with the sunnah of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
