Supplication upon hearing thunder

	When ‘Abdullaah Ibn Az-Zubayr used to hear thunder he would stop talking and say: ‘How perfect He is, (The One) Whom the thunder declares His perfection with His praise, as do the angels out of fear of Him.’

Asking for clear skies

	‘O Allaah, let the rain fall around us and not upon us, O Allaah, (let it fall) on the pasture, hills, valleys and roots of trees.’

Prayer said during a wind storm

	‘O Allaah, I ask You for it’s goodness and I take refuge with You from it’s evil.’

	‘O Allaah, I ask You for it’s goodness, the good within it, and the good it was sent with, and I take refuge with You from it’s evil, the evil within it, and from the evil it was sent with.’
