Prophetic Supplication for Storms

Prophetic Supplication for Storms

Ai’sha (Allah be pleased with her) relates that the Prophet Muhammad (Allah bless him and give him peace) used to make the following supplication when there was stormy weather:

اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ خَيْرَهَا

وَخَيْرَ مَا فِيهَا

وَخَيْرَ مَا أُرْسِلَتْ بِهِ ،

وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّهَا

وَشَرِّ مَا فِيهَا

وَشَرِّ مَا أُرْسِلَتْ

Allahumma inni as’aluka khayraha

wa khayra ma fiha

wa khayra ma ursilat bihi

wa a`udhu bika min sharriha

wa sharri ma fiha

wa sharri ma ursilat bihi.

“O Allah, I ask You for the best of it

and the best of what is within it

and the best of what it has come with.

And I seek refuge in You from the worst of it

and the worst of what is within it

and the worst of what it has come with.”
