3633. ‘Abdullāh said: “You consider the signs to be punishment, whereas we used to think of them as a blessing during the time of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ. We used to eat food with the Prophet ﷺ and we would hear the food’s Tasbīh.” He said: “And the Prophet ﷺ was brought a container, so he put his hand it in, and the water began to spring from between his fingers. So the Prophet ﷺ said: ‘Hasten to the blessed Wudu’ and the blessing from the heavens’ until all of us had performed Wudu’.” (Sahih)

Commentary
The signs and miracles that solved the problem and difficulties of the Muslims were surely blessings, and those that on the demand of disbelievers to prove the power and control of Allāh ﷻ over His creation, were cause of fear and punishment.
