bayhaqi:6406Abū Bakr b. al-Ḥārith al-Faqīh > Abū Muḥammad b. Ḥayyān Abū al-Shaykh al-Aṣbahānī > Aḥmad b. ʿAmr / Ibn ʿAbd al-Khāliq > Yaḥyá b. Ḥabīb b. ʿArabī > Rawḥ b. ʿUbādah > Muḥammad b. ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz from his father > Ṭalḥah b. ʿAbdullāh b. ʿAwf > Saʾalt Ibn ʿAbbās

[Machine] On both Eid days, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out to seek rain. He performed two Rak'ahs (units of prayer) without Adhan or Iqamah. He said twelve Takbirs (saying Allahu Akbar) in them, seven in the first and five in the second. He recited aloud in the prayer, then he turned away and delivered a sermon. He faced the Qiblah (direction of prayer) and turned his cloak. Then Muhammad bin Abdul Aziz sought rain. This is not a strong Hadith, and it is strengthened by the previous evidence.  

البيهقي:٦٤٠٦أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ الْفَقِيهُ أنبأ أَبُو مُحَمَّدِ بْنُ حَيَّانَ أَبُو الشَّيْخِ الْأَصْبَهَانِيُّ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَبْدِ الْخَالِقِ ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَبِيبِ بْنِ عَرَبِيٍّ ثنا رَوْحُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ عَنِ السُّنَّةِ فِي الِاسْتِسْقَاءِ فَقَالَ

مِثْلُ السُّنَّةِ فِي الْعِيدَيْنِ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَسْتَسْقِي فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ بِغَيْرِ أَذَانٍ وَلَا إِقَامَةٍ وَكَبَّرَ فِيهِمَا ثِنْتَيْ عَشْرَةَ تَكْبِيرَةً سَبْعًا فِي الْأُولَى وَخَمْسًا فِي الْآخِرَةِ وَجَهَرَ بِالْقِرَاءَةِ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ فَخَطَبَ وَاسْتَقْبَلَ الْقِبْلَةَ وَحَوَّلَ رِدَاءَهُ ثُمَّ اسْتَسْقَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ هَذَا غَيْرُ قَوِيٍّ وَهُوَ بِمَا قَبْلَهُ مِنَ الشَّوَاهِدِ يَقْوَى
