Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: Regarding the prayer for rain, is it permissible for disbelievers to go out on a separate day?
Answer:
No, they do not pray separately, nor do they go out on a separate day; because it might coincide with the rain falling, and people would say, "Their prayer was accepted and the rain came down," or something like that. People would be led astray by them. Yes.
