Describing the day as having bad weather conditions when the rain is heavy
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: What is the ruling on naming a day when the rain falls heavily, calling it a day with bad weather conditions?
The Shaykh:
Like[Hud 11:77] This is not attributing the severity or the evil to the time; rather, it is a matter of reporting. "A severe day" means a day of severe calamity for Lut (peace be upon him). Yes.
The presenter:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.
The Shaykh:
"The punishment of a painful day," painful. Describing the day as painful is a matter of reporting the state of the day, not that the day is what caused this thing. Yes.

Honorable Shaykh.
The Shaykh:
[Fussilat 41:16] Unlucky. This is a description of the days, not attributing destruction to the days. Yes.
