Hadith 5673

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَقِيلٍ وَهُوَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَقِيلٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَمْزَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ ، حَدَّثَنَا سَالِمٌ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : " رُبَّمَا ذَكَرْتُ قَوْلَ الشَّاعِرِ ، وَأَنَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَى وَجْهِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ يَسْتَسْقِي ، فَمَا يَنْزِلُ حَتَّى يَجِيشَ كُلُّ مِيزَابٍ " ، وَأَذْكُرُ قَوْلَ الشَّاعِرِ : وَأَبْيَضَ يُسْتَسْقَى الْغَمَامُ بِوَجْهِه ثِمَالُ الْيَتَامَى عِصْمَةٌ لِلْأَرَامِلِ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that sometimes when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would sit on the pulpit and supplicate for rain, before he would even descend, all the streams would begin to flow. At that moment, when I would look at the beautiful face of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), I would remember this verse of poetry: "That fair-skinned one, whose very being is made a means to supplicate for rain from the clouds, and he is the one who is the refuge of orphans and the protector of widows." It should be noted that this verse was said by Abu Talib in praise of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
