Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 2926 — on the description of the prayer for rain
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: خَرَجَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمًا يَسْتَسْقِي وَصَلَّى بِنَا رَكْعَتَيْنِ بِلَا أَذَانٍ وَلَا إِقَامَةٍ ثُمَّ خَطَبَنَا وَدَعَا اللَّهَ وَحَوَّلَ وَجْهَهُ نَحْوَ الْقِبْلَةِ رَافِعًا يَدَيْهِ، ثُمَّ قَلَّبَ رِدَاءَهُ فَجَعَلَ الْأَيْمَنَ عَلَى الْأَيْسَرِ وَالْأَيْسَرَ عَلَى الْأَيْمَنِ
Sayyiduna Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) reports: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) once went out to pray for rain, and without giving the adhan or iqamah, he led us in two rak‘ahs. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) delivered a sermon to us, supplicated to Allah Almighty, turned his face towards the qiblah while his hands were raised, then turned his cloak inside out, placing the right side on the left and the left side on the right.
