Is there any specific Duʿā to be read when it rains?

Answer

بسم الله الرحمن الرحیم

The mother of believers ʿĀʾishah (d. 58/678) (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that whenever the messenger of Allah ﷺ saw the rain, he would say:

اللَّهُمَّ صَيِّبًا نَافِعًا

“O Allah, [may it be] beneficial fruitful [rain]” (Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī, 1032).
