Hadith #27
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا سَكَنُ بْنُ نَافِعٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا صَالِحُ بْنُ أَبِي الْأَخْضَرِ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عَبَّادِ بْنِ تَمِيمٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَمَّهُ وَكَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ خَرَجَ
رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَاسْتَسْقَى ثُمَّ تَوَجَّهَ قِبَلَ الْقِبْلَةِ وَحَوَّلَ إِلَى النَّاسِ ظَهْرَهُ يَدْعُو وَحَوَّلَ رِدَاءَهُ وَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْد الرَّحْمَنِ قَلْبُ الرِّدَاءِ حَتَّى تُحَوَّلَ السَّنَةُ يَصِيرُ الْغَلَاءُ رُخْصًا

English Translation
Sakan ibn Nāfiʿ narrated to us, he said: Ṣāliḥ ibn Abī al-Akhḍar narrated to us, from al-Zuhrī, from ʿAbbād ibn Tamīm al-Anṣārī, that he heard his uncle — who was among the Companions of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ — saying: The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ went out and performed the rain prayer (istisqāʾ). Then he turned toward the qiblah with his back to the people, supplicating. He turned his cloak around and prayed two rakʿahs. Abū ʿAbd al-Raḥmān said: Turning the cloak is so that the year's condition changes — hardship becomes ease.
