حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو الْخَلَّالُ الْمَكِّيُّ ثنا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ ثنا سَبْرَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ الرَّبِيعِ بْنِ سَبْرَةَ أَنَّ أَبَاهُ حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ قَالَ
رَأَى أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ سَحَابَةً فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ كُنَّا نَرْجُو أَنْ تُمْطِرَنَا هَذِهِ السَّحَابَةُ فَقَالَ «أُمِرَتْ أَنْ تُمْطِرَ بَلِيلَ» يَعْنِي وَادِيًا يُقَالُ لَهُ بَلِيلُ
