Knowing the descent of rain through modern means.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : We return to reality now. In the name of Allah. Now you know about weather forecasting; they announce to us that there will be rain tomorrow, the air is such, the waves are such, and so on. And peace be upon you, and Allah’s mercy and blessings. In the authentic hadith, the keys of the unseen are five, and among them is , meaning that no one knows when the rain will descend except Allah (Mighty and Majestic). But today, through a means created by Allah, they have been able to know when the sun rises, when it sets, the precise answer for every region, and so on. When the rain will fall, when the weather will be cold, and so on. So they have utilized the means that Allah (Mighty and Majestic) created. Therefore, there is no contradiction here with the Qur’anic text and the interpretation by the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned in the hadith Sunan Ibn Majah 4044Sahih (Darussalam). So, in my opinion, and Allah knows best, I find it difficult to find evidence for prohibiting this matter, based on what was mentioned earlier, apart from that.
And He sends down the rain
وينزل الغيثfive (things) which no one knows except Allah
مفاتيح الغيب خمس لا يعلمهن إلا الله
