Bayhaqi 6405 — Evidence that the Sunnah in the prayer for rain

وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حَمْشَاذٍ الْعَدْلُ، ثنا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ السَّدُوسِيُّ، ثنا سَهْلُ بْنُ بَكَّارٍ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ طَلْحَةَ قَالَ: أَرْسَلَنِي مَرْوَانُ إِلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ سُنَّةِ الِاسْتِسْقَاءِ، فَقَالَ: " سُنَّةُ الِاسْتِسْقَاءِ سَنَةُ الصَّلَاةِ فِي الْعِيدَيْنِ، إِلَّا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَلَبُ رِدَاءَهُ، فَجَعَلَ يَمِينَهُ عَلَى يَسَارِهِ وَيَسَارَهُ عَلَى يَمِينِهِ، وَصَلَّى الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ، فَكَبَّرَ فِي الْأُولَى بِسَبْعِ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ، وَقَرَأَ بِـ سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى، وَقَرَأَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ هَلْ أَتَاكَ حَدِيثُ الْغَاشِيَةِ، وَكَبَّرَ فِيهَا خَمْسَ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ ".
It is narrated from Talhah (may Allah have mercy on him): Marwan sent me to Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) to ask him about the manner of seeking rain. He said: The manner of the rain prayer is the same as that of the prayer of the two Eids, except that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) turned his cloak around (reversed it), putting the right side onto the left and the left side onto the right, and prayed two rak'ahs. In the first rak'ah he (peace and blessings be upon him) said seven takbirs and recited the surah 'Glorify the name of your Lord, the Most High' [Surah al-A'la: 1], and in the second rak'ah he recited 'Has there come to you the report of the Overwhelming (Event)?' [Surah al-Ghashiyah: 1] and said five takbirs in it.
