There are 6 Sunnahs during rain which very few people know about should follow. Find out which it is.

## 1. Pray to Allah that this rain becomes beneficial for you

Whenever it starts raining, you must start reciting this, "***Allahumma seeban Nafia***" which means "***Oh Allah, Give us beneficial rain***" (*Cited from Sanan An Nasai*)

## 2. Standing under the rain and catching the rain

Once Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) stood under the rain. When he was asked why did he do it? He replied, "***It has come from the Almighty Allah***". (*Cited from Shahih Muslim*)

## 3. Call to Allah through Supplication

Raining is one of the [times when duas are accepted](https://theislamicinformation.com/duas/times-duas-accepted-best-times/). When it rains next time, you better pray during it.

Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said;

## 4. Asking for Allah's Protection From the rain

During severe rain, it is suggested to recite this, "***Allah Hawalina Wala Alaina***" which means "***Oh Allah around us, not on us***." (*Cited from Sahih Bukhari*)

## 5. Reciting this verse from the Holy Quran after hearing Thunder

Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said;

![Surah Raad Quran 13 13](https://theislamicinformation.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Surah-Raad-Quran-13-13-1024x1024.png)

It means "We have received rain from Allah SWT's mercy." (*Cited from Bukhari and Muslim*)
