The Ruling on Saying There Is No Blessing in the Rain

The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: Some people say when it rains that there is no blessing in this rain. Is this contradictory to what is mentioned in the verse?

The Shaykh:
I do not know. How does he know that there is no blessing in it? He denies the blessing in it. How does he know? Allah, Exalted and Majestic, says it is blessed, and you say, "No, this is not blessed." That is not permissible. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: Regarding the saying of Allah, Exalted and Majestic, "The Day you will see every nation..."

The Shaykh:
And I told you that rain is a cause. Rain is a cause for vegetation, but it may not grow, because the outcome is with Allah, Exalted and Majestic. Rain is merely a cause and does not necessitate vegetation. This indicates that matters are in the hand of Allah, Glorified and Exalted. Yes.
