The Prayer for Eclipses, Earthquakes, Winds, and Oppression and Their Causes
وَقَالَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «مَا خَرَجَتْ رِيحٌ قَطُّ إِلاَّ بِمِكْيَالٍ إِلاَّ زَمَنَ عَادٍ فَإِنَّهَا عَتَتْ عَلَى خُزَّانِهَا فَخَرَجَتْ فِي مِثْلِ خَرْقِ اَلْإِبْرَةِ فَأَهْلَكَتْ قَوْمَ عَادٍ.
Imam عليه السلام said: "No wind ever blows except in measure, except during the time of the people of ‘Aad, for it broke loose against its keepers and came out like the eye of a needle, destroying the people of ‘Aad."
