The wealth has been destroyed and the children are dying of hunger, so please supplicate to Allah for us.”The narrator says: The Prophet raised both his hands, and (at that time) there was not a single cloud in the sky. By the One in Whose hand is my soul! He had not yet lowered his hands when clouds like mountains gathered, and he had not yet descended from the pulpit when I saw rain falling upon the blessed beard of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). From that day until the next Friday, it rained continuously. Then (the next Friday), that same Bedouin or another man stood up and said:“O Messenger of Allah! Now even the houses have collapsed, so please supplicate to Allah (to stop the rain).”So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) raised his hands and supplicated:“O Allah! Let it rain around us and not upon us.”Whenever he pointed with his hand to any side of the mosque, the clouds would clear from that direction, until Madinah became (clear) like a courtyard, and the valley of Qanat flowed for a month, and everyone coming from the surroundings of Madinah brought news of rain.

The menstruating women should stay away from the place of prayer, but participate in goodness and the supplications of the Muslims. I asked: O Messenger of Allah! What if one of them does not have a cloak? He replied: Her sister should let her wear her own cloak.

Then, passing through their rows, he reached the women. Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) was with the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) recited this verse «يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ إِذَا جَاءَكَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتُ يُبَايِعْنَكَ عَلَى أَنْ لَا يُشْرِكْنَ بِاللَّهِ شَيْئًا...... الخ» . After reciting the verse, he asked: Are you steadfast upon this? Only one woman replied: Yes! O Messenger of Allah! Hasan bin Muslim does not know who that woman was.

The narrator says: Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) spread out his cloth and began to say: May my parents be sacrificed for you, give charity. So the women began to put their earrings and rings into the cloth of Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him).
