أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ صَالِحِ بْنِ هَانِئٍ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ، ثنا هَارُونُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْأَيْلِيُّ، حَدَّثَنِي خَالِدُ بْنُ نِزَارٍ، ثنا الْقَاسِمُ بْنُ مَبْرُورٍ، عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: شَكَيَ النَّاسُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قُحُوطَ الْمَطَرِ، فَأَمَرَ بِمِنْبَرٍ، فَوُضِعَ لَهُ فِي الْمُصَلَّى، وَوَعَدَ النَّاسَ يَوْمًا يَخْرُجُونَ فِيهِ، قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ بَدَا حَاجِبُ الشَّمْسِ، فَقَعَدَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ، فَكَبَّرَ وَحَمِدَ اللهَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " إِنَّكُمْ شَكَوْتُمْ جَدْبَ دِيَارِكُمْ، وَاسْتِيخَارَ الْمَطَرِ عَنْ إِبَّانِ زَمَانِهِ عَنْكُمْ، وَقَدْ أَمَرَكُمُ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَنْ تَدَعُوهُ، وَوَعَدَكُمْ أَنْ يَسْتَجِيبَ لَكُمْ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ، الرَّحْمِنِ الرَّحِيمِ، مَالِكِ يَوْمِ الدِّينِ، لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ يَفْعَلُ مَا يُرِيدُ، اللهُمَّ أَنْتَ اللهُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ، أَنْتَ الْغَنِيُّ وَنَحْنُ الْفُقَرَاءُ، أَنْزِلْ عَلَيْنَا الْغَيْثَ، وَاجْعَلْ مَا أَنْزَلْتَ لَنَا قُوَّةً وَبَلَاغًا إِلَى حِينٍ "، ثُمَّ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَتْرُكْ فِي الرَّفْعِ حَتَّى بَدَا بَيَاضُ إِبْطَيْهِ، ثُمَّ حَوَّلَ إِلَى النَّاسِ ظَهْرَهُ، وَقَلَبَ أَوْ حَوَّلَ رِدَاءَهُ، وَهُوَ رَافِعٌ يَدَهُ، ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى النَّاسِ، وَنَزَلَ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ، ⦗٤٨٧⦘ وَأَنْشَأَ اللهُ تَعَالَى سَحَابًا فَرَعَدَتْ وَبَرَقَتْ، ثُمَّ أَمْطَرَتْ بِإِذْنِ اللهِ تَعَالَى، فَلَمْ يَأْتِ مَسْجِدَهُ حَتَّى سَالَتِ السُّيُولُ، فَلَمَّا رَأَى سُرْعَتَهُمْ إِلَى الْكَنِّ ضَحِكَ حَتَّى بَدَتْ نَوَاجِذُهُ، وَقَالَ " أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ اللهَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ، وَأَنِّي عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ ". أَخْرَجَهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ فِي كِتَابِ السُّنَنِ عَنْ هَارُونَ.
It is narrated from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the people complained to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about the lack of rain. He (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered a pulpit, and it was placed for him in the prayer ground (musalla), and he appointed a particular day for the people on which to come out. Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came out when the edge of the sun appeared, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) sat on the pulpit and proclaimed Allah's greatness and praised Him. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You have complained of the drought of your lands and of the rain being delayed beyond its due season, whereas Allah, Glorified and Exalted, has commanded you to call upon Him and has promised that He will answer your supplication." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Alhamdu lillahi Rabbil-'alamin, ar-Rahmanir-Rahim, Maliki yawmid-din, la ilaha illallahu yaf'alu ma yurid, Allahumma antallahu la ilaha illa antal-Ghaniyyu wa nahnul-fuqara', anzil 'alaynal-ghaytha, waj'al ma anzalta lana quwwatan wa balaghan ila hin' (All praise is for Allah, the Lord of all the worlds, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, Master of the Day of Recompense. There is no god but Allah; He does whatever He wills. O Allah, You are Allah, there is no god but You; You are the Self-Sufficient and we are the needy. Send down rain upon us, and make what You send down a source of strength for us and a provision for a while).
Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his hands and kept them raised until the whiteness of his (peace and blessings be upon him) armpits became visible. Then he turned his back to the people and reversed his cloak while he (peace and blessings be upon him) was keeping his hands raised. Then he turned towards the people, came down from the pulpit and led two rak'ahs. Allah Almighty then produced clouds, which thundered and flashed with lightning, and then they rained by the command of Allah. He (peace and blessings be upon him) had not yet reached the mosque when the gutters began to flow. When he (peace and blessings be upon him) saw the people hurrying to take shelter from the rain, he (peace and blessings be upon him) smiled until his (peace and blessings be upon him) molar teeth became visible, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I bear witness that Allah Almighty has power over all things, and that I am His servant and Messenger."
