Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. At the end of the Friday khutbah, the khatib made a supplication and raised his hands for rain. What is the ruling on raising the hands, and does the ma'mum raise his hands with him? The prayer for rain

Answer:
There is no harm. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) made a supplication in the Friday khutbah and raised his hands, and the people raised their hands. There is no objection. In the supplication for rain, the hands are raised, whether in the Friday khutbah or in a khutbah.
