(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ النَّاسَ ، قَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، هَلَكَ الْمَالُ ، أَقْحَطْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، وَهَلَكَ الْمَالُ ، فَاسْتَسْقِ لَنَا ، " فَقَامَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ ، فَاسْتَسْقَى ، وَوَصَفَ حَمَّادٌ : بَسَطَ يَدَيْهِ حِيَالَ صَدْرِهِ وَبَطْنُ كَفَّيْهِ مِمَّا يَلِي الْأَرْضَ ، وَمَا فِي السَّمَاءِ قَزَعَةٌ ، فَمَا انْصَرَفَ حَتَّى أَهَمَّتْ الشَّابَّ الْقَوِيَّ نَفْسُهُ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ ، فَمُطِرْنَا إِلَى الْجُمُعَةِ الْأُخْرَى ، فَقَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، تَهَدَّمَ الْبُنْيَانُ ، وَانْقَطَعَ الرُّكْبَانُ ، ادْعُ اللَّهَ أَنْ يَكْشِطَهَا عَنَّا ، فَضَحِكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَقَالَ : اللَّهُمَّ حَوَالَيْنَا وَلَا عَلَيْنَا ، فَانْجَابَتْ حَتَّى كَانَتِ الْمَدِينَةُ كَأَنَّهَا فِي إِكْلِيلٍ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once on a Friday, people said to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! The rain has stopped, the lands have become dry, and the wealth is being destroyed." Upon hearing this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his hands so high that the whiteness of his blessed armpits became visible, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated for rain. At the time when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his blessed hands, we could not see any clouds in the sky, but when the prayer was finished, the young men living in nearby houses found it difficult to return to their homes. When the next Friday came, people said: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! The buildings of the houses have collapsed and the riders have been forced to stop outside Madinah." Upon hearing this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed to Allah: "O Allah! Let this rain fall around us, not upon us." Thus, the rain moved away from Madinah.
