I came to Ibn Masud, and he said, "The Quraysh were slow in accepting Islam, so the Prophet ﷺ supplicated against them. They were struck by a year of drought until they perished in it and ate carrion and bones."Abu Sufyan came to him and said, "Muhammad, you came commanding the upholding of kinship ties, but your people are perishing. So pray to Allah."Then he recited, "So watch for the Day when the sky will bring a visible smoke" [Dukhan 44:10].Then they returned to their disbelief, and that is the meaning of His statement, "The Day We will strike with the greatest assault, indeed, We will take retribution" [Dukhan 44:16], referring to the day of Badr.Abu Abdullah said, and Asbat added from Mansur, "So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ supplicated, and they were given rain, which poured down on them for seven days. The people then complained of the abundance of rain."He said, "O Allah, around us and not upon us." So the cloud parted from above his head, and the people around them were given rain.
حدثنا محمد بن كثير عن سفيان حدثنا منصور والأعمش عن أبي الضحى
أتيت ابن مسعود فقال إن قريشا أبطئوا عن الإسلام فدعا عليهم النبي ﷺ فأخذتهم سنة حتى هلكوا فيها وأكلوا الميتة والعظام فجاءه أبو سفيان فقال يا محمد جئت تأمر بصلة الرحم وإن قومك هلكوا فادع الله فقرأ {فارتقب يوم تأتي السماء بدخان مبين} ثم عادوا إلى كفرهم فذلك قوله تعالى {يوم نبطش البطشة الكبرى إنا منتقمون} يوم بدر قال أبو عبد الله وزاد أسباط عن منصور فدعا رسول الله ﷺ فسقوا الغيث فأطبقت عليهم سبعا وشكا الناس كثرة المطر قال اللهم حوالينا ولا علينا فانحدرت السحابة عن رأسه فسقوا الناس حولهم
