The people of the village going out to welcome the rain with joy

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. A questioner says: In some villages, when it rains, all the people of the village go out to welcome it at the wadi. Is this part of the prescribed joy?

Answer:
This is not prescribed. This falls under the category of customs. It is permissible for you, or for them, to go out and look at the wadi and be happy, as long as it does not contradict the religion. There is no harm in that.
