Q
What role did Al-Abbas bin Abdul Muttalib play in invoking Allah for rain during the time of Umar bin Al-Khattab?
A
Whenever drought threatened them, `Umar bin Al-Khattab, used to ask Al-Abbas bin `Abdul Muttalib
to invoke Allah for rain. He used to say, “O Allah! We used to ask our Prophet to invoke You for rain,
and You would bless us with rain, and now we ask his uncle to invoke You for rain. O Allah ! Bless
us with rain.”(1) And so it would rain.
