Hadith 717
اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا خَلِيفَةُ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا الْمُثَنَّى ، هُوَ ابْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا هَاجَتْ رِيحٌ شَدِيدَةٌ ، قَالَ : ”اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ مِنْ خَيْرِ مَا أُرْسِلَتْ بِهِ ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا أُرْسِلَتْ بِهِ .“
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that when a strong wind would blow, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would recite this supplication: "O Allah! I ask You for the good of this wind and the good that it has been sent with, and I seek refuge in You from the evil of this wind and the evil that it has been sent with."
Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Maulana Usman Muneeb
Benefits and Issues:
➊ Life is sustained by air, and it has countless benefits, such as the nurturing of trees and the health of the human body, all of which depend on it. Its harm is that when it exceeds its limits, it becomes a punishment.
➋ The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) would supplicate for this reason: many previous nations were destroyed through this very wind, such as the people of ‘Ad and others. Therefore, it is Sunnah and recommended to recite this supplication when a storm arises.
