It was narrated from Anas bin Malik that a man entered the Masjid one Friday through the door that was nearest Dar Al-Qada', while the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) was standing, delivering the Khutbah. He turned towards the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) and said: "O Messenger of Allah, our wealth has been destroyed and the roads are cut off. Pray to Allah to give us rain." The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) raised his hands and said: "Allahumma! Aghithna, Allahumma! Aghithna (O Allah, give us rain; O Allah, give us rain; O Allah, give us rain)." Anas said: "By Allah, we could not see any clouds in the sky, and between us and Sal' there were no houses. Then from behind it there appeared a cloud like a shield. When it reached the middle of the sky, it spread, then it began to rain. By Allah, we did not see the sun for a week. Then a man entered through that door during Jumu'ah when the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) was standing, delivering the Khutbah; he turned to the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, our wealth has been destroyed and the roads are cut off. Pray to Allah to stop (the rain) for us.' The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) raised his hands and said: 'Allahumma! Hawlana wa la 'alaina. Allahumma! 'Alal-akami waz-zirabi wa butunil-awdiyati wa manabitish-shajar (O Allah, around us and not on us! O Allah, on the hillocks and small mountains, the valley bottoms and places where trees grow.).' Then it stopped, and we went out walking in the sun." Sharik said: "I asked Anas bin Malik: 'Was that the first man?' He said: 'I do not know."'

وَحَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ رُشَيْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنِ الأَوْزَاعِىِّ حَدَّثَنِى إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِى طَلْحَةَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ أَصَابَتِ النَّاسَ سَنَةٌ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- فَبَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- يَخْطُبُ النَّاسَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ إِذْ قَامَ أَعْرَابِىٌّ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَلَكَ الْمَالُ وَجَاعَ الْعِيَالُ. وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ بِمَعْنَاهُ. وَفِيهِ قَالَ « اللَّهُمَّ حَوَالَيْنَا وَلاَ عَلَيْنَا ». قَالَ فَمَا يُشِيرُ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى نَاحِيَةٍ إِلاَّ تَفَرَّجَتْ حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ فِى مِثْلِ الْجَوْبَةِ وَسَالَ وَادِى قَنَاةَ شَهْرًا. وَلَمْ يَجِئْ أَحَدٌ مِنْ نَاحِيَةٍ إِلاَّ أَخْبَرَ بِجَوْدٍ.
It was narrated that Anas bin Malik said: "The people were stricken with a famine during the time of the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w). While the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) was addressing the people from the Minbar one Friday, a Bedouin stood up and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, our wealth has been destroyed and our children are starving..."' and he quoted a similar Hadith (as no. 2078), in which he said: Allahumma! Hawlana wa la 'alaina (O Allah, around us and not on us)." And whichever direction he pointed to, the clouds broke up, until I saw Al-Madinah as if it were in a hole. The valley of Qanah flowed for a month, and no one came from any direction but he brought news of heavy rainfall.

Then if it rained he would rejoice, and that (anxiety) would leave him."

وَحَدَّثَنِى أَبُو الطَّاهِرِ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ جُرَيْجٍ يُحَدِّثُنَا عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِى رَبَاحٍ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِىِّ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ كَانَ النَّبِىُّ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- إِذَا عَصَفَتِ الرِّيحُ قَالَ « اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّى أَسْأَلُكَ خَيْرَهَا وَخَيْرَ مَا فِيهَا وَخَيْرَ مَا أُرْسِلَتْ بِهِ وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّهَا وَشَرِّ مَا فِيهَا وَشَرِّ مَا أُرْسِلَتْ بِهِ ». قَالَتْ وَإِذَا تَخَيَّلَتِ السَّمَاءُ تَغَيَّرَ لَوْنُهُ وَخَرَجَ وَدَخَلَ وَأَقْبَلَ وَأَدْبَرَ فَإِذَا مَطَرَتْ سُرِّىَ عَنْهُ فَعَرَفْتُ ذَلِكَ فِى وَجْهِهِ. قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَسَأَلْتُهُ فَقَالَ « لَعَلَّهُ يَا عَائِشَةُ كَمَا قَالَ قَوْمُ عَادٍ (فَلَمَّا رَأَوْهُ عَارِضًا مُسْتَقْبِلَ أَوْدِيَتِهِمْ قَالُوا هَذَا عَارِضٌ مُمْطِرُنَا) ».
It was narrated that 'Aishah, the wife of the Prophet (s.a.w), said: "If there was a stormy wind, the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) would say: 'Allahumma Inni as'aluka khairaha, wa khaira ma fiha, wa khaira ma ursilat bihi wa a'udhu bika min sharriha, wa sharri ma fiha, wa sharri maa ursilat bih (O Allah, I ask You for its goodness and the goodness of that with which it has been sent, and I seek refuge with You from its evil and the evil of that with which it has been sent).' If there was thunder and lightening, his color would change, and he would go in and out (of the house) and pace back and forth, then if it rained he would feel relieved. 'Aishah noticed that and asked him. He said: 'Perhaps, O 'Aishah, it is as the people of 'Ad said: Then, when they saw it as a dense cloud coming towards their valleys, they said: This is a cloud bringing us rain!..."

وَحَدَّثَنِى هَارُونُ بْنُ مَعْرُوفٍ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْحَارِثِ ح وَحَدَّثَنِى أَبُو الطَّاهِرِ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ الْحَارِثِ أَنَّ أَبَا النَّضْرِ حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِىِّ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ مَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- مُسْتَجْمِعًا ضَاحِكًا حَتَّى أَرَى مِنْهُ لَهَوَاتِهِ إِنَّمَا كَانَ يَتَبَسَّمُ - قَالَتْ - وَكَانَ إِذَا رَأَى غَيْمًا أَوْ رِيحًا عُرِفَ ذَلِكَ فِى وَجْهِهِ. فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَرَى النَّاسَ إِذَا رَأَوُا الْغَيْمَ فَرِحُوا. رَجَاءَ أَنْ يَكُونَ فِيهِ الْمَطَرُ وَأَرَاكَ إِذَا رَأَيْتَهُ عَرَفْتُ فِى وَجْهِكَ الْكَرَاهِيَةَ قَالَتْ فَقَالَ « يَا عَائِشَةُ مَا يُؤَمِّنُنِى أَنْ يَكُونَ فِيهِ عَذَابٌ قَدْ عُذِّبَ قَوْمٌ بِالرِّيحِ وَقَدْ رَأَى قَوْمٌ الْعَذَابَ فَقَالُوا (هَذَا عَارِضٌ مُمْطِرُنَا) ».
It was narrated that 'Aishah, the wife of the Prophet (s.a.w), said: "I never saw the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) laughing so much that I could see his uvula; he only used to smile. If he saw a cloud or wind, (his reaction to that) could be seen on his face." She said: "O Messenger of Allah, I see that when the people see a cloud, they rejoice, hoping that it is bringing rain, but when you see it, I can see on your face that you do not like it." He said: "O 'Aishah, I cannot be sure that there is not a punishment in it, because some people were punished by means of the wind, and some people saw the punishment and said: "This is a cloud bringing us rain!..."
