[Machine] That people said, "O Messenger of Allah, our livestock and wealth have been destroyed, so pray for rain for us." He stood on the pulpit on Friday and prayed for rain. Hammad spread his hands towards his chest and his palms covered his abdomen, such that it seemed as if he was holding the earth and the sky in his hands. A cloud appeared, and it did not dissipate until the strong youth felt compelled to return to his family. We were blessed with rain until the next Friday. They said, "O Messenger of Allah, the structures have collapsed and the roads have been cut off, so pray to Allah to remove the difficulty from us." The Messenger of Allah laughed and said, "O Allah, let the rain be around us and not on us." The rain then fell, and the city appeared as if it was wreathed in flowers.
أَنَّ النَّاسَ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ هَلَكَ الْمَالُ أَقْحَطْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَهَلَكَ الْمَالُ فَاسْتَسْقِ لَنَا فَقَامَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ فَاسْتَسْقَى وَوَصَفَ حَمَّادٌ بَسْطَ يَدَيْهِ حِيَالَ صَدْرِهِ وَبَطْنُ كَفَّيْهِ مِمَّا يَلِي الْأَرْضَ وَمَا فِي السَّمَاءِ قَزَعَةٌ فَمَا انْصَرَفَ حَتَّى أَهَمَّتِ الشَّابَّ الْقَوِيَّ نَفْسُهُ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ فَمُطِرْنَا إِلَى الْجُمُعَةِ الْأُخْرَى فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ تَهَدَّمَ الْبُنْيَانُ وَانْقَطَعَ الرُّكْبَانُ ادْعُ اللهَ أَنْ يَكْشِطَهَا عَنَّا فَضَحِكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَقَالَ اللهُمَّ حَوَالَيْنَا وَلَا عَلَيْنَا فَانْجَابَتْ حَتَّىكَانَتِ الْمَدِينَةُ كَأَنَّهَا فِي إِكْلِيلٍ
