Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I seek forgiveness from Allah for you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: Is it permissible to say that the cause of rain is the evaporation of water from the sea, from which clouds then form, and then the rain descends?
Answer:
By Allah, this is part of the knowledge of Allah. We do not intervene in it, nor do we say it is from this or from that. We have no knowledge of this.
