“If it will rain, we'll stay in.”
What's wrong? Choose the right one.
After if, when and as soon as, use the present for the future: if it rains, as soon as I get home. (Questions, and if meaning whether, are different: When will you…? I don't know if he'll…)
Not: If it will rain, we'll stay in.
Say: If it rains, we'll stay in.
