1727 Abul-Mundhir Ubaiy bin Ka`b (radiyallahu anhu) said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “Do not revile the wind. When you experience something abominable (about it), supplicate: `Allahumma inna nas’aluka min khairi hadhihir-rihi, wa khairi ma fiha, wa khairi ma umirat bihi. Wa na`udhu bika min sharri hadhihir-rihi, wa sharri ma fiha, wa sharri ma umirat bihi. (O Allah, we beg of You the good of this wind and the good of that which it contains and the good of that which it has been commanded; and we seek refuge in you from the evil of this wind and the evil of that which it contains and the evil of that which it has been commanded).”[At-Tirmidhi].
1728 Abu Hurairah (radiyallahu anhu) said: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, “The wind is the Blessing of Allah. Sometimes it brings His Mercy and sometimes it brings His Chastisement. When you experience it, do not revile it but beg of Allah its good; and seek Allah’s Refuge against its evil.”[Abu Dawud with good Isnad].
1729 `Aishah (radiyallahu anha) said: Whenever the wind blew strongly, The Prophet ﷺ would say: “Allahumma inni as’aluka khairaha, wa khaira ma fiha, wa khaira ma ursilat bihi. Wa a`udhu bika min sharriha, wa sharri ma fiha, wa sharri ma ursilat bihi. (O Allah, I beg of You its good and the good of that which it contains and the good of the purpose for which it has been sent; and I seek Your Refuge from its evil and the evil of that which it contains and the evil of the purpose for which it has been sent).”[Muslim].
