Sunan Ibn Majah 1266
It was
narrated from Hisham bin Ishaq bin ‘Abdullah bin Kinanah that
his
father said:
“One of the chiefs* sent me to Ibn ‘Abbas to ask him
about the prayer for rain. Ibn ‘Abbas said: ‘What kept him from
asking
me?’ He said: ‘The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) went out
humbly, walking
with a humble and moderate gait, imploring, and he
performed two
Rak’ah as he used to pray for ‘Eid, but he did not
give a sermon like
this sermon of yours.’”
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ كِنَانَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ أَرْسَلَنِي أَمِيرٌ مِنَ الأُمَرَاءِ إِلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَسْأَلُهُ عَنِ الصَّلاَةِ، فِي الاِسْتِسْقَاءِ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ مَا مَنَعَهُ أَنْ يَسْأَلَنِي، قَالَ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ مُتَوَاضِعًا مُتَبَذِّلاً مُتَخَشِّعًا مُتَرَسِّلاً مُتَضَرِّعًا فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ كَمَا يُصَلِّي فِي الْعِيدِ وَلَمْ يَخْطُبْ خُطْبَتَكُمْ هَذِهِ ‏.‏
