Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner asks: Does what is now called rainmaking or industrial rain fall under the qudsi hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)Sahih al-Bukhari 1038?
Answer:
If they attribute the descent of rain to themselves, then it falls under it, yes. Do the creatures bring down the rain? If Allah does not will it to descend, do they bring it down?[Al-Waqi'ah 56:69]? So we do not believe them, and we do not let their nonsense and evil spread among us. Some people attribute to the disbelievers everything they know and everything they are capable of, even bringing down the rain, which they think they are capable of. This is arrogance, and may Allah protect us from it, and it is self-admiration, self-admiration of the enemies of Allah. Yes.

In this morning some of My worshipers remained as true believers and some became non-believers

Is it you who brought it down from the clouds, or is it We who bring it down?
