In times of drought and despair, the barish ki dua (rain prayer) has been a beacon of hope for centuries. This potent prayer, prescribed in Islamic tradition, is believed to invoke divine intervention to bring forth the life-giving showers.
Barish ki dua is a supplication to Allah (God) seeking His mercy and blessing in the form of rain. The prayer typically involves expressing gratitude for past blessings, acknowledging the importance of rain for sustenance and prosperity, and humbly requesting Allah's grace in replenishing water resources.
