Prayer When Rain is Accompanied by Strong Wind

There is a prayer that needs to be recited when it rains accompanied by strong winds. In a hadith, it is explained that the Prophet Muhammad SAW always recited this prayer when it rained accompanied by strong winds.

Allahumma inni as-aluka khoiroha wa khoiro ma fiha wa khoiro ma ursilat bih. Wa-a'udzubika min syarriha wa syarri ma fiiha wa khoiro ma ursilat bih.

"Meaning:"

"O Allah, I seek goodness from this wind, the goodness within it, and the goodness that You bring with it. And I seek refuge in You from the evil of this wind, the evil within it, and the evil that You send with it."

"Prayer to be Protected from Calamities during Rain"

Apart from reciting prayers for the rain to stop in Arabic, Muslims are also encouraged to recite prayers to be protected from calamities when it rains. This is because it is not uncommon for rain to be accompanied by strong winds, thunder, and other disasters. As humans who believe in God, all we can do is pray and maintain the balance of nature. Read the following prayer to be protected from danger when it rains:

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الَّذِى لاَ يَضُرُّ مَعَ اسْمِهِ شَىْءٌ فِى الأَرْضِ وَلاَ فِى السَّمَاءِ وَهُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ
In the name of Allah, with whose name nothing on earth or in heaven can cause harm, and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing.

Translation: "Meaning: 'In the name of Allah, by mentioning His name, nothing on earth or in the sky can cause harm, and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing.'"

"Prayer to Prevent Disasters from Rain"

Rasulullah SAW, when he saw thick black clouds, he SAW prayed that the rain that fell would not bring disaster to humans and nature. Instead, the rain brought blessings and mercy to the universe. The following is a prayer to prevent the rain from bringing disaster: "It is narrated from Ibn al-Musayyab that the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, when he saw clouds, he said: 'Allahumma saiba rahmatin wa lâ saiba 'adzâbin' (O Allah, bestow mercy and do not bestow punishment)." (Narrated by Ibn Majah and Nasai)

"Do Not Insult the Rain"

The presence of rain is evidence of the power of Allah SWT. The presence of rain should be responded to with grateful words and prayers to Him. We should not criticize the rain and complain about its presence. There are manners that need to be observed when it rains, which is not to criticize it. It is better to practice prayers so that the rain does not cause disaster. Narrated by Imam Abu Dawud, Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah, and Imam Ahmad, here is the wording of the hadith:

"About Abu Hurairah said: I heard the Prophet, peace be upon him, saying: 'The wind is from the soul of Allah, the Most Exalted, it brings mercy and it brings punishment. So when you see it, do not curse it, and ask Allah for its goodness and seek refuge in Allah from its evil.'"
"From Sayyidina Abu Hurairah ra. he said: "I heard the Prophet SAW say: 'The wind is a part of Allah's gift, it can bring blessings and also punishment. If you see it, do not criticize it, ask Allah for its goodness and seek refuge in Allah from its evil.'"

"(HR. Abu Dawud, Tirmidzi, Ibn Majah, and Ahmad)"
