Surah Ar-Room (30) — Ayah 46
وَمِنْ ءَايَـٰتِهِۦٓ أَن يُرْسِلَ ٱلرِّيَاحَ مُبَشِّرَٰتٍ وَلِيُذِيقَكُم مِّن رَّحْمَتِهِۦ وَلِتَجْرِىَ ٱلْفُلْكُ بِأَمْرِهِۦ وَلِتَبْتَغُوا۟ مِن فَضْلِهِۦ وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ ﴿46﴾
Translation by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Dr. Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali
And among His Signs is this, that He sends the winds as glad tidings, giving you a taste of His Mercy (i.e. rain), and that the ships may sail at His Command, and that you may seek of His Bounty, in order that you may be thankful.

46-1. That is, these winds are the harbingers of rain.
46-2. That is, both humans feel pleasure and delight from the rain, and the crops also flourish.
46-3. That is, ships also sail through these winds. The reference is to sailing ships; now, by making full use of the intellectual abilities given by Allah, humans have invented other ships and vessels that run by machines. However, even for these, favorable and suitable winds are necessary. Otherwise, Allah is capable of drowning them as well through stormy waves.

46-5. That is, for the apparent and hidden blessings, which are countless. That is, Allah provides you with all these conveniences so that you may benefit from them in your life and also worship and obey Allah!
