No, stratus clouds only produce relatively light rain. Cumulonimbus produce the heaviest rain (thunderstorms).
Some stratus clouds can definitely produce rain. Low, thick clouds called nimbostratus clouds in particular release rain, and they release the majority of the world's precipitation.
clear sky which mean not any types of precipitation
Typically clouds that produce precipitation will have either the Nimbo- prefix or -nimbus suffix. Clouds that produce precipitation (rain, snow, sleet, hail...etc) will normally appear lower in the sky such as the Nimbostratus & Cumulonimbus. There are different variations of these clouds with variations of the above names. Double-click on the terms "Nimbostratus" or "Cumulonimbus" to get the definition from AnswerTips!

A light mist or sprinkle of rain can fall from a stratus cloud.

Not necessarily. The word stratus means layered. If the stratus clouds are low enough they can result in ground fog. Stratus clouds can also produce a light, but steady rain or snow.
Status clouds can produce snow or rain depending on what conditions are present.
Rain falls primarily from cumulus, stratocumulus and stratus clouds. When cirrus clouds precipitate, they normally produce ice crystals.
