The Shaykh : The meaning of the hadith is valid, but this specific wording is also not known. However, there are many hadiths in the authentic Sunnah. Among them is that the mu'adhdhin, and this is one of the abandoned, neglected Sunnahs due to the Muslims' ignorance of the Sunnah. The mu'adhdhin in the adhan, instead of adding the additions at the beginning and end for which Allah has sent down no authority, does not add the additions that Allah revealed upon the heart of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Among them is that when the mu'adhdhin says in his adhan "Hasten to prayer, hasten to success", there are two Sunnahs: either he substitutes and says instead of "Hasten to prayer, hasten to success" "Pray in your homes, pray in your homes", or if you wish, you combine and say "Pray in your homes, pray in your homes", or you combine "Hasten to prayer" as is the norm and rule, with "Hasten to prayer, hasten to success, hasten to success", and then he says "Pray in your homes, pray in your homes". This Sunnah has not remained among the people, first due to their ignorance, and second due to the prevalence of madhhabism in some Islamic countries. If they knew the Sunnah, then when the Sunnah contradicts the madhhab, the issue is reversed for them: the weaker position becomes the stronger, and the stronger becomes the weaker. The madhhab becomes the stronger position and the Sunnah becomes the weaker, may Allah protect us from that.
So, in the authentic, established Sunnah, there is permission to combine prayers in the mosque for rain, and this is one of its proofs. But who combines in the mosque today for the sake of rain? It is very, very rare. And I had mentioned to you that... this last time, when the snow increased in al-Zubdani, I went up to... on Friday, I prayed 'Asr, and it was very good from the imam. For the first time, I heard him say, "O our brothers," excuse me, it was not Friday, it was not a Friday. He prayed Zuhr, then he alerted them before the prayer, based on the Shafi'i madhhab, saying, "O our brothers, intend from now on to combine 'Asr and Zuhr for what? The snow." So this was a reviving of a Sunnah that is actually neglected.
So, praying in one's place is a matter established in many hadiths. As for this wording, what was the wording?

The Shaykh : So we do not know it in the established Sunnah, yes.
If the sandals become wet, then pray in your places
