Sharjah24: Dr. Mohammed Abdullah Al Hammadi, an official from the preaching department at the Sharjah Islamic Affairs Department in the Central Region, announced that the Istisqa prayer will be performed in the mosques throughout the Central Region. This practice follows the guidance of Prophet Muhammad in seeking rain and aligns with the directives of His Highness President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan.
Al Hammadi emphasized that it is the Sunnah of Muslims to turn to God in supplication during times of hardship or when blessings seem to diminish, as God Almighty is the one who alleviates distress and assists those who seek His help.

In statements to “Sharjah 24,” he explained that the Istisqa prayer is a humble act of supplication aimed at requesting rain. According to the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, when rain is delayed, it is encouraged to gather for the Istisqa prayer.

He also indicated that this prayer will take place in all mosques across the Central Region of Sharjah at 11 AM, in line with the directives of His Highness President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan.
