“I heard ‘Abbad bin Tamim narrating to my father that his paternal uncle had seen the Prophet ﷺ going out to the prayer place to pray for rain. He faced the Qiblah and turned his cloak around, and prayed two Rak’ah.” (One of the narrators) Muhammad bin Sabbah said: “Sufyan told us something similar, narrating from Yahya bin Saʿeed, from Abu Bakr bin Muhammad bin ʿAmr bin Hazm. from ʿAbbad bin Tamim, from his paternal uncle, from the Prophet ﷺ.” Sufyan narrated that Al-Masʿudi said: “I asked Abu Bakr bin Muhammad bin ʿAmr: 'Did he turn it upside down or right to left?' He said: 'No, it was right to left.'”
