أَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو سَعِيدٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَى بْنِ الْفَضْلِ، أَنْبَأَ أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْمُزَنِيُّ، أَنْبَأَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى، ثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ، أَخْبَرَنِي شُعَيْبٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، أَخْبَرَنِي سَعِيدٌ - يَعْنِي: ابْنَ الْمُسَيِّبِ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أُخْبِرَ: أَنَّ أَبَا لُبَابَةَ يَقُولُ لِلسَّمَاءِ: أَمِدِّي. يَدْعُو بِالْجَدْبِ لِنَفَاقِ ثَمَرَةِ نَخْلِهِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: اللَّهُمَّ، أَرْسِلْهَا حَتَّى يَسُدَّ أَبُو لُبَابَةَ ثَعْلَبَ مِرْبَدِهِ بِرِدَائِهِ فَأَرْسَلَ اللهُ السَّمَاءَ، فَلَمَّا صَارَ السَّيْلُ بِثَمَرِ أَبِي لُبَابَةَ - وَهُوَ فِي الْمِرْبَدِ - اضْطُرَّ أَبُو لُبَابَةَ إِلَى إِزَارِهِ، فَسَدَّ بِهِ ثَعْلَبَ الْمِرْبَدِ

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was informed that Abū Lubābah was saying to the sky: "Send more!" – praying for drought so that the fruit of his palm trees would sell well. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "O Allah, send it down until Abū Lubābah plugs the water outlet of his drying floor with his cloak." So Allah sent down the rain. When the flood reached the fruit of Abū Lubābah – while it was in the drying floor – Abū Lubābah was forced to use his waist-wrapper, and he plugged the outlet of the drying floor with it.
