The Statement Upon Hearing Thunder
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: May Allah reward you. I used to hear my relatives say, when I hear the sound of thunder, "Dham al-Hay" (Praise to the Living), and they say, when it rumbles, "Subhan man shi'a" (Glory to the One who willed). What is the ruling on that?
Answer:
There is no evidence for that. However, if one says upon hearing the thunder, "Glory to the One to whom the thunder glorifies with His praise, and the angels out of fear of Him," this is from the wording in the verse: "And the thunder glorifies Him with His praise, and the angels out of fear of Him."
