حَدَّثَنَا النُّفَيْلِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَعُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ نَحْوَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَا:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا حَاتِمُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ كِنَانَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ أَرْسَلَنِي الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ عُقَبَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ عُثْمَانُ ابْنُ عُقْبَةَ:‏‏‏‏ وَكَانَ أَمِيرَ الْمَدِينَةِ إِلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ صَلَاةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الِاسْتِسْقَاءِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُتَبَذِّلًا مُتَوَاضِعًا مُتَضَرِّعًا حَتَّى أَتَى الْمُصَلَّى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏زَادَ عُثْمَانُ:‏‏‏‏ فَرَقَى عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ اتَّفَقَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَلَمْ يَخْطُبْ خُطَبَكُمْ هَذِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَلَكِنْ لَمْ يَزَلْ فِي الدُّعَاءِ وَالتَّضَرُّعِ وَالتَّكْبِيرِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ صَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ كَمَا يُصَلِّي فِي الْعِيدِ . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد:‏‏‏‏ وَالْإِخْبَارُ لِلنُّفَيْلِيِّ، وَالصَّوَابُ ابْنُ عُقْبَةَ.

Al-Walid bin Utbah or (according to the version of Uthman) al-Walid bin Uqbah, the then governor of Madina, sent me to Ibn Abbas رضی اللہ عنہما to ask him about the prayer for rain offered by the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم. He said: The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم went out wearing old clothes in a humble and lowly manner until he reached the place of prayer. He then ascended the pulpit, but he did not deliver the sermon as you deliver (usually). He remained engaged in making supplication, showing humbleness (to Allah) and uttering the takbir (Allah is most great). He then offered two rak'ahs of prayer as done on the Eid (festival). Abu Dawud said: This is the version of al-Nufaili. What is correct is Ibn Utbah's

— Hisham bin Ishaq bin Abdullah bin Kinanah narrated that his father
