and while making dua during rain, should one stand in the rain, or can make dua from anywhere?
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "When you hear the crowing of cocks, ask for Allah's Blessings for (their crowing indicates that) they have seen an angel. And when you hear the braying of donkeys, seek Refuge with Allah from Satan for (their braying indicates) that they have seen a Satan."
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " إِذَا سَمِعْتُمْ صِيَاحَ الدِّيَكَةِ فَاسْأَلُوا اللَّهَ مِنْ فَضْلِهِ، فَإِنَّهَا رَأَتْ مَلَكًا، وَإِذَا سَمِعْتُمْ نَهِيقَ الْحِمَارِ فَتَعَوَّذُوا بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ، فَإِنَّهُ رَأَى شَيْطَانًا ".
Reference:
Sahih al-Bukhari 3303
In-book reference: Book 59, Hadith 111
USC-MSA web (English) reference: Vol. 4, Book 54, Hadith 522
https://sunnah.com/bukhari/59/111
Similar hadith is narrated in Sahih Muslim:
https://sunnah.com/muslim/48/112
Narrated in Tirmidhi & AbuDawud as well, links for reference are below:
https://sunnah.com/tirmidhi/48/90
https://sunnah.com/abudawud/43/330
So basically dua can be made anytime one sees or hears the crowing of the rooster. And Allah knows the best!
