Sahih al-Bukhari - Invoking Allah for Rain (Istisqaa)
Narrated Masruq:One day I went to Ibn Mas`ud who said, "When Quraish delayed in embracing Islam, the Prophet (ﷺ) invoked Allah to curse them, so they were afflicted with a (famine) year because of which many of them died and they ate the carcasses and Abu Sufyan came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said, 'O Muhammad! You came to order people to keep good relation with kith and kin and your nation is being destroyed, so invoke Allah.' So the Prophet (ﷺ) recited the Holy verses of Surat-Ad-Dukhan: 'Then watch you For the day that The sky will Bring forth a kind Of smoke Plainly visible.' (44.10) When the famine was taken off, the people renegade once again as nonbelievers. The statement of Allah, (in Sura "Ad- Dukhan"-44) refers to that: 'On the day when We shall seize You with a mighty grasp.' (44.16) And that was what happened on the day of the battle of Badr." Asbat added on the authority of Mansur, "Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) prayed for them and it rained heavily for seven days. So the people complained of the excessive rain. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'O Allah! (Let it rain) around us and not on us.' So the clouds dispersed over his head and it rained over the surroundings
حدثنا محمد بن كثير، عن سفيان، حدثنا منصور، والاعمش، عن ابي الضحى، عن مسروق، قال اتيت ابن مسعود فقال ان قريشا ابطيوا عن الاسلام،، فدعا عليهم النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فاخذتهم سنة حتى هلكوا فيها واكلوا الميتة والعظام، فجاءه ابو سفيان فقال يا محمد، جيت تامر بصلة الرحم، وان قومك هلكوا، فادع الله. فقرا {فارتقب يوم تاتي السماء بدخان مبين} ثم عادوا الى كفرهم فذلك قوله تعالى {يوم نبطش البطشة الكبرى} يوم بدر. قال وزاد اسباط عن منصور فدعا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، فسقوا الغيث، فاطبقت عليهم سبعا، وشكا الناس كثرة المطر فقال " اللهم حوالينا ولا علينا ". فانحدرت السحابة عن راسه، فسقوا الناس حولهم
