abudawud:1196Muḥammad b. ʿAmr b. Jabalah b. Abū Rawwād > Ḥaramī b. ʿUmārah > ʿUbaydullāh b. al-Naḍr from my father > Kānat Ẓulmah > ʿAhd Anas b. Mālik

Ubaydullah ibn an-Nadr reported on the authority of his father: Darkness prevailed in the time of Anas ibn Malik, I came to Anas and said (to him): AbuHamzah, did anything like this happen to you in the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ? He replied: Take refuge in Allah. If the wind blew violently, we would run quickly towards the mosque for fear of the coming of the Day of Judgment.  

أبو داود:١١٩٦حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ جَبَلَةَ بْنِ أَبِي رَوَّادٍ حَدَّثَنِي حَرَمِيُّ بْنُ عُمَارَةَ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ النَّضْرِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي قَالَ كَانَتْ ظُلْمَةٌ عَلَى عَهْدِ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ

فَأَتَيْتُ أَنَسًا فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَا حَمْزَةَ هَلْ كَانَ يُصِيبُكُمْ مِثْلُ هَذَا عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَعَاذَ اللَّهِ إِنْ كَانَتِ الرِّيحُ لَتَشْتَدُّ فَنُبَادِرُ الْمَسْجِدَ مَخَافَةَ الْقِيَامَةِ
