Bayhaqi 6473 — Pointing at the rain

أَخْبَرَنَاهُ أَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو، ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ، أنبأ الرَّبِيعُ، أنبأ الشَّافِعِيُّ، أَنْبَأَنِي مَنْ لَا أَتَّهِمُ، حَدَّثَنِي سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بِذَلِكَ. هُوَ فِي الْمُسْنَدِ الَّذِي خَرَّجَهُ ابْنُ مَطَرٍ. وَسَمِعْنَاهُ مِنْ أَبِي زَكَرِيَّا، وَغَيْرِهِ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُوَيْمِرٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ. وَفِي الْمَبْسُوطِ الَّذِي سَمِعْنَاهُ مِنْ أَبِي سَعِيدِ، ابْنُ عُوَيْمِرٍ، وَالصَّحِيحُ رِوَايَةُ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ.
Urwah bin al-Zubayr (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When one of you sees rain or lightning, let him not point at it, but rather let him describe and praise it."
Sulayman bin Abdullah bin Uwaymir narrates it from Urwah, in the lengthy (book) which we heard from Abu Sa'id (may Allah have mercy on him).
Abdullah bin Uwaymir narrates: I was with Urwah bin al-Zubayr (may Allah have mercy on him), and I pointed at the clouds with my hand. He said: Do not do that, for the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) "forbade that it be pointed at." Ibn Abi Husayn (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) "forbade pointing at the rain." This narration is mursal.
