أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ الْمِقْدَامِ بْنُ شُرَيْحٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ شُرَيْحٍ أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ أَخْبَرَتْهُ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا رَأَى سَحَابًا مُقْبِلًا مِنْ أُفُقٍ مِنَ الْآفَاقِ تَرَكَ مَا هُوَ فِيهِ وَإِنْ كَانَ فِي الصَّلَاةِ حَتَّى يَسْتَقْبِلَهُ فَيَقُولُ اللهُمَّ إِنَّا نَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا أُرْسِلَ بِهِ فَإِنْ أَمْطَرَ قَالَ اللهُمَّ سَيْبًا نَافِعًا اللهُمَّ سَيْبًا نَافِعًا وَإِنْ كَشَفَهُ اللهُ وَلَمْ يُمْطِرْ حَمِدَ اللهَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ

✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ, when he saw clouds approaching from any horizon, would leave whatever he was doing, even if he was in prayer, until he faced it. He would say: “O God, we seek refuge in You from the evil of what it has been sent with.” If it rained, he said: “O God, a beneficial downpour; O God, a beneficial downpour.” And if God dispersed it and it did not rain, he praised God for that.
