English translation

[2084] 14 - (899) It was narrated from 'Aṭā' bin Abī Rabāh that he heard 'Āishah, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ, say: "If it was a windy and cloudy day, the (reaction of) the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ could be seen on his face, and he would pace back and forth. Then if it rained he would rejoice, and that (anxiety) would leave him." 'Āishah said: "I asked him about that and he said: 'I was afraid that it might be a punishment that had been sent against my Ummah.' And when he saw the rain he would say: 'A mercy.'"

Arabic text

14 - (899) حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ بْنِ قَعْنَبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ بِلَالٍ، عَنْ جَعْفَرٍ وَهُوَ ابْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَائِشَةَ، زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، تَقُولُ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الرِّيحِ وَالْغَيْمِ، عُرِفَ ذَلِكَ فِي وَجْهِهِ، وَأَقْبَلَ وَأَدْبَرَ، فَإِذَا مَطَرَتْ سُرَّ بِهِ، وَذَهَبَ عَنْهُ ذَلِكَ، قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: فَسَأَلْتُهُ، فَقَالَ: «إِنِّي خَشِيتُ أَنْ يَكُونَ عَذَابًا سُلِّطَ عَلَى أُمَّتِي»، وَيَقُولُ، إِذَا رَأَى الْمَطَرَ: «رَحْمَةٌ»
