Fortress of the Muslim
Hisn al-Muslim 172
Arabic hadith text
اللّهُمَّ صَيِّـباً نافِـعاً
Translation
O Allah, grant us beneficial rain.
Translation notes
صَيِّـباً نافِـعاً
The witness supplies ‘rain clouds’ in parentheses; the Arabic says ṣayyib, meaning rain or rainfall, and does not specify clouds.
Should the witness’s explanatory ‘rain clouds’ be included?
