Salat Al-Istisqa

The Islamic prayer Salaat al-Istisqa asks for rain. It’s a kind of Salah (prayer) offered during dry spells or periods with little rainfall. “Istisqa” comes from the Arabic language word “sād-qāf-ā,” which implies asking for something or searching it out.

Methods to Perform Salaat al-Istisqa

The method of performing Salaat e Istisqa varies slightly amongst different schools of thought. First of all, Takbeer is offered for Nafal namaz and then the namaz is offered as the method of Farz Namaz (Mandatory Prayer). After Tashhad, in the last sitting of the Nawafil, dua for rain is recited as many times as one thinks to recite. A pure and lengthy dua should be asked from Almighty Allah for rain or Barish.
