The Prayer for Eclipses, Earthquakes, Winds, and Oppression and Their Causes

وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ: «لاَ تَسُبُّوا اَلرِّيَاحَ فَإِنَّهَا مَأْمُورَةٌ وَ لاَ اَلْجِبَالَ وَ لاَ اَلسَّاعَاتِ وَ لاَ اَلْأَيَّامَ وَ لاَ اَللَّيَالِيَ فَتَأْثَمُوا وَ يَرْجِعَ إِلَيْكُمْ.
The Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم said: "Do not curse the winds, for they are commanded (by Allah سبحانه وتعالى), nor the mountains, nor the hours, nor the days, nor the nights, lest you commit a sin and it returns to you."
