حَدَٔثَنَا مُحَمَٔدُ بْنُ سَلَٔامٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا اإِسْمَاعِیْلُ بْنُ جَعْفَرِ، عَنْ حُمَیْدِ، عَنْ أَنَس ؓ قَالَ: قَحَطَ الْمَطَرْ عَامً، فَقَامَ بَعْضُ الْمُسْلِمِیْنَ اإِلَی النَٔبَيً ﷺ یَوْمَ الْجُمُعَۃِ، فَقَالَ: یَا رَسُولَ اللہِ! قَحَطَ الْمَطرُ، وَأَجْدَ َبتِ اْلَٔا رضُ، وَھَلَکَ الْمَالُ۔ فَرَفعَ یَدَیْہِ، وَمَا یْرَی ِفي المَٔسمَاءِ مِنْ سَحَابَۃٍ، فَمَدَٔ یَدَیْہَ حَتَٔی رَأَبْتُ بَیَاضَ اإِبْطَیہِ، یَسْٔقِیَِ اللہَ، فَمَا صَلَٔیْنَا الْجُمُعَۃَ حَتَٔی أَھَمَٔ الشَٔابَٔ الْقَرِیْبَ الدَٔارِ الرَٔ جُوْعَ اإِلَی أَھْلِہِ، فَدَامَتْ جُمُعَۃً، فَلَمَٔا کَانَتِ الْجُمُعَۃُ التَٔيْ تَلِیْھَا، فَقَالَ: یَا رَسُولَ اللہِ ! تَھَدَٔمَتِ الْبُیُوْتُ، وَاحْتَبَسَ الرُٔکْبَانُ فَتَبَسَٔمَ ۔لِسُرْعَۃِ مَلَالَۃِ ابْنِ آدَمَ۔وَقَالَ بِیدِہِ:((اللھَٔمَُٔ حَوَاَلْینَا، وَلَا عَلَیْنَا)) ، فَتَکَشَٔطَتْ عَنِ الْمَدِیْنَۃَِ
الأدب المفرد · Hadith 612
Anas said, "No rain fell for a year and so one of the Muslims went to the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, on Jumu'a (Friday). He said, 'Messenger of Allah, there has been no rain and the ground is dry and people's wealth has been destroyed.' He raised his hand when there was not a cloud to be seen in the sky. He stretched out his arms until I could see the whiteness of his armpits and asked Allah for rain. As soon as we finished the prayer, (the rain was such that) the youth whose house was near was afraid to return to his family. It last past Friday, The following Friday, they said, 'Messenger of Allah, the houses have fallen down and the paths are blocked.' He smiled and observed how quickly the son of Adam becomes discontented. He said while making a gesture with his hand, 'O Allah, around us and not on us.' And the rain cleared away from Madina."
