Majma al-Zawaid 17120 — What one says on seeing a town

وَعَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ : قُلْتُ لَهُ : مَا كَانَ يَخَافُ الْقَوْمُ إِذَا دَخَلُوا قَرْيَةً - أَوْ أَشْرَفُوا عَلَى قَرْيَةٍ - أَنْ يَقُولُوا : اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْ لَنَا فِيهَا رِزْقًا ، قَالَ : كَانُوا يَخَافُونَ جَوْرَ الْوُلَاةِ ، وَقُحُوطَ الْمَطَرِ .
رَوَاهُ الْبَزَّارُ ، وَرِجَالُهُ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ غَيْرَ قَيْسِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ ، وَهُوَ ثِقَةٌ .
Sayyiduna Abu Umamah bin Sahl (may Allah be pleased with him) reports this from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him): I asked him: What are people afraid of, that when they enter a town, or when a town comes into view before them, they recite: "O Allah, grant us provision in it"? Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) replied: People fear the oppression of rulers and the failure of the rains.
Al-Bazzar recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih, except for Qays bin Salim, whose case is different, and he is thiqah (trustworthy).
