| SahihAlBukhari-017-001-3931 | | Narrated Anas: Once during the lifetime of Allah Messenger ﷺ ; the people of Medina suffered from drought. So while the Prophet was delivering a sermon on a Friday a man got up saying; O Allah Messenger ﷺ ! The horses and sheep have perished. Will you invoke Allah to bless us with rain? The Prophet ﷺ lifted both his hands and invoked. The sky at that time was as clear as glass. Suddenly a wind blew; raising clouds that gathered together; and it started raining heavily. We came out of the Masjid wading through the flowing water till we reached our homes. It went on raining till the next Friday; when the same man or some other man stood up and said; O Allah Messenger ﷺ ! The houses have collapsed; please invoke Allah to withhold the rain. On that the Prophet ﷺ smiled and said; O Allah; let it rain around us and not on us. I then looked at the clouds to see them separating forming a sort of a crown round Medina. | The Chapter on Rain And Clouds And Almadinah in HodHood Indexing, Chapter on The signs of Prophethood in Islam in Sahih AlBukhari |

While the Prophet ﷺ was delivering the Khutba on a Friday; a Bedouin stood up and said; O; Allah Messenger ﷺ ! Our possessions are being destroyed and the children are hungry; Please invoke Allah for rain. So the Prophet ﷺ raised his hands. At that time there was not a trace of cloud in the sky. By Him in Whose Hands my soul is as soon as he lowered his hands; clouds gathered like mountains; and before he got down from the pulpit; I saw the rain falling on the beard of the Prophet. It rained that day; the next day; the third day; the fourth day till the next Friday. The same Bedouin or another man stood up and said; O Allah Messenger ﷺ ! The houses have collapsed; our possessions and livestock have been drowned; Please invoke Allah to protect us. So the Prophet ﷺ raised both his hands and said; O Allah! Round about us and not on us. So; in whatever direction he pointed with his hands; the clouds dispersed and cleared away; and Medina sky became clear as a hole in between the clouds.

| SahihAlBukhari-017-001-6135 | | Narrated Abu Mousa: The Prophet ﷺ said; The example of guidance and knowledge with which Allah has sent me is like abundant rain falling on the earth; some of which was fertile soil that absorbed rain water and brought forth vegetation and grass in abundance. And another portion of it was hard and held the rain water and Allah benefited the people with it and they utilized it for drinking; making their animals drink from it and for irrigation of the land for cultivation. And a portion of it was barren which could neither hold the water nor bring forth vegetation then that land gave no benefits. The first is the example of the person who comprehends Allah religion and gets benefit from the knowledge which Allah has revealed through me the Prophets and learns and then teaches others. The last example is that of a person who does not care for it and does not take Allah guidance revealed through me He is like that barren land. | The Chapter on Farming And Irrigation And Earth in HodHood Indexing, Chapter on The superiority of a person who learns Islam becomes a religious scholar and then teaches it to others in Sahih AlBukhari |

So they were stricken with famine and fatigue; so much so that they ate even bones. A man would look towards the sky and imagine seeing something like smoke between him and the sky because of extreme fatigue. So Allah revealed:- Then watch you for the Day that the sky will bring forth a kind of smoke plainly visible; covering the people; this is a painfull of torment. 44.10-11 Then someone Abu Sufyan came to Allah Messenger ﷺ and said; O Allah Messenger ﷺ ! Invoke Allah to send rain for the tribes of Mudar for they are on the verge of destruction. On that the Prophet ﷺ said astonishingly Shall I invoke Allah for the tribes of Mudar? Verily; you are a brave man! But the Prophet prayed for rain and it rained for them. Then the Verse was revealed.

We will indeed then exact retribution. 44.16 The narrator said; That was the day of the Battle of Badr. | The Chapter on Rain And Clouds And Smoke Associated With Punishments in HodHood Indexing, The Book of Prophetic Commentary on the Quran Tafseer of the Prophet in Sahih AlBukhari |
