Advice for those who are lax about the prayer for rain

Question:
May Allah reward you with good, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What is the advice of Shaykh Salih to the brothers who are lax about the prayer for rain?

Answer:
Those who are lax about the prayer for rain miss out on much good. Also, this indicates that they do not care about the conditions of their Muslim brothers who are in need, nor do they care about what befalls the livestock, the crops, or the wells due to the scarcity of water. So, he is heedless of these matters, and perhaps laziness overcomes him, so he sleeps and leaves the prayer for rain, which is a confirmed sunnah (recommended practice). The confirmed voluntary prayers are the eclipse prayer, then the prayer for rain, then the tarawih, then the witr. These are the most confirmed voluntary prayers, so the prayer for rain comes second in confirmation after the eclipse prayer. Yes.
