The slow retrograde rotation state of Venus is very peculiar among the planets in the solar system, and its formation mechanism has arisen much attention. Based on the hypothesis that the radial distribution of interplanetary matter is not uniform in the solar system, its effect on the rotation of terrestrial planets is calculated. The results show that in the initial stage Venus may have almost the same rotation state like other planets in the solar system. Under the action of interplanetary matter, the rotation of Venus slows down, and becomes reversal after 1 billion years since its formation. The calculated results of other terrestrial planets are also comparatively reasonable. The slow rotation of Mercury can also be explained naturally.
