3582. Narrated Anas رضي الله عنه: Once during the lifetime of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ, the people of Al-Madīna suffered from drought. So, while the Prophet ﷺ was delivering Khutba (religious talk) on a Friday, a man got up saying, "O Allāh's Messenger! The horses and sheep have perished. Will you invoke Allāh to bless us with rain?" The Prophet ﷺ lifted both his hands and invoked (Allāh). 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 mosque) 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 Allāh's Messenger! The houses have collapsed; please invoke Allāh to withhold the rain." On that the Prophet ﷺ smiled and said, "O Allāh, (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 Al-Madīna. (See H. 933)

Arabic text

3582 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ العَزِيزِ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، وَعَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: أَصَابَ أَهْلَ المَدِينَةِ قَحْطٌ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَبَيْنَا هُوَ يَخْطُبُ يَوْمَ جُمُعَةٍ، إِذْ قَامَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَلَكَتِ الكُرَاعُ، هَلَكَتِ الشَّاءُ، فَادْعُ اللَّهَ يَسْقِينَا، «فَمَدَّ يَدَيْهِ وَدَعَا»، قَالَ أَنَسٌ: وَإِنَّ السَّمَاءَ لَمِثْلُ الزُّجَاجَةِ، فَهَاجَتْ رِيحٌ أَنْشَأَتْ سَحَابًا، ثُمَّ اجْتَمَعَ ثُمَّ أَرْسَلَتِ السَّمَاءُ عَزَالِيَهَا، فَخَرَجْنَا نَخُوضُ المَاءَ حَتَّى أَتَيْنَا مَنَازِلَنَا، فَلَمْ نَزَلْ نُمْطَرُ إِلَى الجُمُعَةِ الأُخْرَى، فَقَامَ إِلَيْهِ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلُ أَوْ غَيْرُهُ، فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ: تَهَدَّمَتِ البُيُوتُ فَادْعُ اللَّهَ يَحْبِسْهُ، فَتَبَسَّمَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «حَوَالَيْنَا وَلاَ عَلَيْنَا» فَنَظَرْتُ إِلَى السَّحَابِ تَصَدَّعَ حَوْلَ المَدِينَةِ كَأَنَّهُ إِكْلِيلٌ
