(2). 3257. 'Aishah [may Allāh be pleased with her] said: "When the Prophet ﷺ saw storm clouds he would pace back and forth. And when it rained, he would relax." She said: "I said something to him about that, and he said: 'What do I know? Maybe it is as Allāh, Most High said: Then, when they saw it as a dense cloud approaching their valleys, they said: This is a cloud bringing us rain.'"[1] (Sahih)
[Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan.

Commentary
The Prophet ﷺ would become fearful as he would see clouds in the sky, lest there should be Allāh's punishment in the form of clouds; and when the clouds bring rain and the danger had passed, his fear and anxiety would also disappear. He would also have this fear and worry for the territories where he himself was not present, as the people could not be punished where he used to be. Allāh never punished a nation so long as the Prophet was among them.
