Du‘ā Upon Lightning and Thunder


Ibn ‘Umar رضي الله عنه narrates that when the Prophet ﷺ would hear the sound of thunder and [see] lightning, he would say:

اللَّهُمَّ لَا تَقْتُلْنَا بِغَضَبِكَ، وَلَا تُهْلِكْنَا بِعَذَابِكَ، وَعَافِنَا قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ

Allā-hum-ma lā taq-tul-nā bi ghaḍa-bik, wa-lā tuh-lik-nā bi ‘adhā-bik, wa ‘ā-finā qab-la dhā-lik

Trans: “O Allāh! do not kill us due to Your wrath, do not destroy us through Your punishment, and grant us safety before [it comes to] that.”[1]

[1] At-Tirmidhī, Al-Ḥākim, Aṭ-Ṭabrānī and Al-Bukhārī in Al-Adab Al-Mufrad.

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ قَا

لَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، عَنْ الْحَجَّاجِ بْنِ أَرْطَاةَ، عَنْ أَبِي مَطَرٍ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ إِذَا سَمِعَ صَوْتَ الرَّعْدِ وَالصَّوَاعِقِ، قَالَ: «اللَّهُمَّ لَا تَقْتُلْنَا بِغَضَبِكَ، وَلَا تُهْلِكْنَا بِعَذَابِكَ، وَعَافِنَا قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ»: «هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ لَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ هَذَا (اللفظ للترمذي)
