Ayesha reported,
Ayesha reported that whenever the wind blew strongly, the Prophet ﷺ would say, "O Allah, I ask You for its good, for the good that is in it, and for the good it has been sent with, and I seek refuge in You from its evil, from the evil that is in it, and from the evil it has been sent with."She said that whenever the sky grew heavy with clouds, his color would change, and he would go out and come in, pace forward and back. Then when the rain fell, his distress would leave him, and she could see the relief in his face.Ayesha said, "So I asked him about it."He replied, "Perhaps, Ayesha, it will be as the people of Aad said, 'And when they saw a cloud advancing toward their valleys, they said, this is a cloud bringing us rain.'" [Ahqaf 46:24]

Sahihعن عائشة زوج النبي ﷺ
أنها قالت: كان النبي ﷺ إذا عصفت الريح قال: اللهم إني أسألك خيرها وخير ما فيها، وخير ما أرسلت به وأعوذ بك من شرها وشر ما فيها وشر ما أرسلت به قالت: وإذا تخيلت السماء تغير لونه، وخرج ودخل وأقبل وأدبر فإذا مطرت سري عنه فعرفت ذلك في وجهه قالت عائشة: فسألته فقال: لعله يا عائشة كما قال قوم عاد: {فلما رأوه عارضا مستقبل أوديتهم قالوا هذا عارض ممطرنا}.
and the destruction of his people and the destruction of his peopleBukhari narrated it in Bad al-Khalq (3206) in abbreviated form, and Muslim narrated it in Salat al-Istisqa (899:14, 15), both through routes from Ibn Jurayj, who said, Ata bin Abu Rabah narrated to us, from Ayesha, and he related it as mentioned. The wording given is Muslim's. His statement, "and when the sky showed signs of clouds," means when it had thunder and lightning suggesting rain would come from it. It is said, "akhalat," when it becomes cloudy. Bukhari's wording is, "when he saw a cloud formation in the sky."It was narrated from Ibn Umar who said, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "What Allah opened up against Aad, from the wind by which they were destroyed, was no more than the size of a signet ring's opening. It passed by the desert dwellers and carried them along with their livestock and their possessions, and lifted them up between the sky and the earth. When the settled people saw the wind and what was in it, they said, 'This is a cloud bringing us rain.' Then it cast the desert dwellers and their livestock down upon the settled people."Ibn Abu Hatim narrated it in his Tafsir (10/3369), and Tabarani in al-Kabir (12/421), and Abu Shaykh in al-Azamah (806), all of them through routes from Muhammad bin Fudayl, from Muslim al-Malai, from Mujahid, from Ibn Umar, and he related it as mentioned.Haythami said in al-Majma (7/113), "Tabarani narrated it, and it contains Muslim al-Malai, who is daif."
