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

وَقَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «نِعْمَ اَلرِّيحُ اَلْجَنُوبُ تَكْسِرُ اَلْبَرْدَ عَنِ اَلْمَسَاكِينِ وَ تُلْقِحُ اَلشَّجَرَ وَ تُسِيلُ اَلْأَوْدِيَةَ.
Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: "The south wind (al-janub) is a blessing; it breaks the cold for the needy, pollinates the trees, and fills the valleys with water”.
