حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مَالِكٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَبَّادَ بْنَ تَمِيمٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏يَقُولُ:‏‏‏‏ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ زَيْدٍ الْمَازِنِيَّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏يَقُولُ:‏‏‏‏ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى الْمُصَلَّى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَاسْتَسْقَى وَحَوَّلَ رِدَاءَهُ حِينَ اسْتَقْبَلَ الْقِبْلَةَ .

sunan-abu-dawud-1173

Narrated Aishah, Ummul Muminin: The people complained to the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم of the lack of rain, so he gave an order for a pulpit. It was then set up for him in the place of prayer. He fixed a day for the people on which they should come out. Aishah said: The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم, when the rim of the sun appeared, sat down on the pulpit, and having pronounced the greatness of Allah and expressed His praise, he said: You have complained of drought in your homes, and of the delay in receiving rain at the beginning of its season. Allah has ordered you to supplicate Him has and promised that He will answer your prayer. Then he said: Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Universe, the Compassionate, the Merciful, the Master of the Day of Judgment. There is no god but Allah Who does what He wishes. O Allah, Thou art Allah, there is no deity but Thou, the Rich, while we are the poor. Send down the rain upon us and make what Thou sendest down a strength and satisfaction for a time. He then raised his hands, and kept raising them till the whiteness under his armpits was visible. He then turned his back to the people and inverted or turned round his cloak while keeping his hands aloft. He then faced the people, descended and prayed two rak'ahs. Allah then produced a cloud, and the storm of thunder and lightning came on. Then the rain fell by Allah's permission, and before he reached his mosque streams were flowing. When he saw the speed with which the people were seeking shelter, he صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم laughed till his back teeth were visible. Then he said: I testify that Allah is Omnipotent and that I am Allah's servant and Messenger. Abu Dawud said: This is a ghraib (rate) tradition, but its chain is sound. The people of Madina recite maliki (instead of maaliki) yawm al-din (the master of the Day of Judgement). But this tradition (in which the word maalik occurs) is an evidence for them.
