English translation

1978. Ibn 'Abbās narrated that a man cursed the wind in the presence of the Prophet ﷺ, so he said: "Do not curse the wind, for it is merely doing as ordered, and whoever curses something undeserving, then the curse returns upon him."[1] (Da'if) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Gharīb. We do not know of anyone who narrated a chain for it except for Bishr bin 'Umar.

Arabic text

١٩٧٨ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌زَيْدُ بْنُ أَخْزَمَ الطَّائِيُّ الْبَصْرِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌بِشْرُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبَانُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ ، عَنْ ‌قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي الْعَالِيَةِ ، عَنِ ‌ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ «أَنَّ رَجُلًا» لَعَنَ الرِّيحَ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: لَا تَلْعَنِ الرِّيحَ؛ فَإِنَّهَا مَأْمُورَةٌ، وَإِنَّهُ مَنْ لَعَنَ شَيْئًا لَيْسَ لَهُ بِأَهْلٍ رَجَعَتِ اللَّعْنَةُ عَلَيْهِ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ. لَا نَعْلَمُ أَحَدًا أَسْنَدَهُ غَيْرَ بِشْرِ بْنِ عُمَرَ.

Commentary

The wind blows by the command of Allāh and grows strong and ferocious by His bidding. It has no choice or discretion in the matter. Thus, if someone is put to any sort of harm by its ferocity, it is all by the will of Allāh.
