اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى ، عَنْ مَالِك ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ حَزْمٍ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَبَّادَ بْنَ تَمِيمٍ ، يَقُولُ : سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ زَيْدٍ الْمَازِنِيَّ ، يَقُولُ : " خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى الْمُصَلَّى فَاسْتَسْقَى ، وَحَوَّلَ رِدَاءَهُ حِينَ اسْتَقْبَلَ الْقِبْلَةَ "
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Zaid Mazni (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) went out for the prayer of Istisqa (prayer for rain), and he turned his cloak inside out when he faced the Qiblah.
وَسُئِلَ مَالِك ، عَنْ صَلَاةِ الْاسْتِسْقَاءِ كَمْ هِيَ ؟ فَقَالَ : رَكْعَتَانِ ، وَلَكِنْ يَبْدَأُ الْإِمَامُ بِالصَّلَاةِ قَبْلَ الْخُطْبَةِ ، فَيُصَلِّي رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ يَخْطُبُ قَائِمًا ، وَيَدْعُو وَيَسْتَقْبِلُ الْقِبْلَةَ وَيُحَوِّلُ رِدَاءَهُ حِينَ يَسْتَقْبِلُ الْقِبْلَةَ ، وَيَجْهَرُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ بِالْقِرَاءَةِ ، وَإِذَا حَوَّلَ رِدَاءَهُ جَعَلَ الَّذِي عَلَى يَمِينِهِ عَلَى شِمَالِهِ ، وَالَّذِي عَلَى شِمَالِهِ عَلَى يَمِينِهِ ، وَيُحَوِّلُ النَّاسُ أَرْدِيَتَهُمْ إِذَا حَوَّلَ الْإِمَامُ رِدَاءَهُ وَيَسْتَقْبِلُونَ الْقِبْلَةَ وَهُمْ قُعُودٌ
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, was asked how many rak'ahs are in the prayer of Istisqa (prayer for rain)? He replied that there are two rak'ahs, and the Imam should first perform the prayer, then stand and deliver the sermon and supplicate facing the Qiblah. And when he turns his face towards the Qiblah, he should turn his cloak inside out, and recite aloud in both rak'ahs. And he should turn his cloak in such a way that the right side's edge comes to the left and the left side's edge comes to the right, and the followers should also turn their cloaks in the same way when the Imam does so. And they should face the Qiblah while sitting.
