Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The listener (M. Al-Suhayli) sent a message asking Your Eminence a number of questions: in one of them, he asks about the prescribed saying upon hearing thunder, or seeing lightning? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
It is mentioned in some hadiths that it is said upon hearing thunder:
Glory be to Him whose praise the thunder and the angels extol from fear of Himسبحان من سبح الرعد بحمده، والملائكة من خيفته
Mishkat al-Masabih 1522
And Ibn al-Zubayr used to do that when he heard it. As for lightning, I do not recall anything in this regard; I do not recall anything said upon seeing lightning. I am not aware of anything from the Sunnah regarding this time. Yes.

The presenter : May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
