Q: A questioner asks: What must a Muslim do when rain falls, or when he hears thunder and sees lightning?
A: When he hears thunder, he should say:Mishkat al-Masabih 1522 This was reported from al-Zubayr and from some of the Salaf. If the believer says that, it is good.
As for when rain falls, he should say: This is how the hadiths came from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).
A: When he hears thunder, he should say:
Glory be to Him whose praise the thunder and the angels extol from fear of Him
سبحان من سبح الرعد بحمده والملائكة من خيفتهAs for when rain falls, he should say:
O Allah, send down a beneficial rain; we have been given rain by the grace of Allah and His mercy.
اللهم صيبًا نافعًا مطرنا بفضل الله ورحمته
