٣١۔٢٨ بَابُ الدُّعَاءِ عِنْدَ الصَّوَاعِقِ

adab:721It is reported by Salim bin Abdullah on the authority of his father (Abdullah bin Umar (ra)) that when the prophet (ﷺ) heard a thunder-clap or a thunder-bolt, he would make this supplication:

“O Allah, slay us not with your lightening and destroy us not with your punishment. But, preserve us before that.”  

الأدب المفرد:٧٢١حَدَّثَنَا مُعَلَّى بْنُ أَسَدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَجَّاجُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو مَطَرٍ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ سَالِمَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ

عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِذَا سَمِعَ الرَّعْدَ وَالصَّوَاعِقَ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ لاَ تَقْتُلْنَا بِصَعْقِكَ وَلاَ تُهْلِكْنَا بِعَذَابِكَ وَعَافِنَا قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ
