112. Bathing In The Rain

It has barakah

وَيُنَزِّلُ عَلَيْكُم مِّنَ السَّمَاءِ مَاءً لِّيُطَهِّرَكُم بِهِ وَيُذْهِبَ عَنكُمْ رِجْزَ الشَّيْطَانِ وَلِيَرْبِطَ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِكُمْ وَيُثَبِّتَ بِهِ الْأَقْدَامَ

“And He sent down upon you from the sky, rain by which to purify you and remove from you the evil [suggestions] of Satan and to make steadfast your hearts and plant firmly thereby your feet”

It is mustahabb to expose oneself to the rain and let some of it flow over one’s body, because of the proven report from Anas radiyallaahu ‘anhu who said: "When we were with the Messenger of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala it rained. The Messenger of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala lifted part of his garment so that the rain could fall on him. We said: "O Messenger of Allah, why did you do that? 

He said: 
“Because it has just come from its Lord, may He be glorified and exalted.” Narrated by Muslim (898).
