Wendy Ayala’s Reflection on Surah Adh-Dhariyat:1-2

This ayah translates in Spanish as follows: '[Juro] por los vientos que soplan, (1) por las nubes cargadas de lluvias, (2)'. It is a beautiful reminder that on this Blessed Friday I was able to witness a change of weather from last night's rain to this mornings sunshine. It is upon Allah's mercy to send who He pleases these clouds of rain so that He is able to help the people grow their crops, feed the animals, and water the plants. I am grateful to be able to make dua as the rain passes from one night to another day. I have been able to remember this beautiful dua Aisha (radiy Allahu anha) narrates: 'Whenever the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) saw rain', he would say: (Allahumma) sayyiban nafi'a, (Oh Oh Allah) make it a beneficial rain (Bukhari 1032). When making this dua, the only thought that comes to mind is looking above and thanking Allah SWT for His mercy and for being able to witness such ayats (verses, revelations, reflections, etc.). Letting us be mindful of what we have and what we are able to obtain comes from The One and Only, Allah SWT, Al-Kabir (The Most Great) & Al-Azim (The Magnificent).

Assalamu Alaikum! While reading your beautiful reflection, I was reminded of another supplication related to rain. We have been experiencing thunderstorms lately and you reminded me to make this Du`a. May Allah bless you and Increase you.

سُبْـحانَ الّذي يُسَبِّـحُ الـرَّعْدُ بِحَمْـدِهِ، وَالملائِكـةُ مِنْ خيـفَته

Subḥāna ‘l-ladhī yusabbiḥur-ra`du bi ḥamdihi wa ‘l-malā'ikatu min khīfatih. Glory is to Him Whom thunder and angels glorify due to fear of Him. Reference: Whenever Abdullah bin Zubair (RA) would hear thunder, he would abandon all conversation and say this supplication. See Al-Muwatta' 2/992. It was graded authentic by Al-Albani as a statement of Abdullah bin Zubayr only.

﷽ The opening verses of Surah Az-Zariyat present powerful images: winds scattering, clouds carrying heavy loads, ships sailing smoothly, and angels distributing commands. Behind these natural scenes lies deep wisdom for modern life. 'By those that scatter.' Just as the wind scatters dust and seeds, we scatter words, actions, and influence every day. In a world flooded with information and opinions, this verse urges me to reflect on what I’m spreading—are my contributions nourishing and meaningful, or just adding to the noise? 'And those that carry a heavy load.' Like the clouds heavy with rain, we all carry burdens—emotional, social, and spiritual. But those burdens have purpose.

The World of Quran

The initial verses of Surah Ad-Dhariyat describe some attributes of the winds, such as their ability to flow, lift, give life, and distribute commands. When I studied this chapter last year, I discovered many fascinating aspects of the winds, which led me to realize the grandeur of Allah's power. We all know that winds bring clouds, cause rain, and provide sustenance for humans, animals, and plants. They are an essential element for the earth's nutrition.

However, one thing that recently astounded me and left me in awe of Allah's power is that the Sahara Desert, the most desolate land on earth, gives life to the most vibrant forest on the earth, the Amazon rainforest.

These set of ayaats are full of imagery and hence diverse interpretations are circulating. To me a common theme can be extracted by these set of ayaats namely that there is a machine at work. This perfect working 'machine' will inevitably produce and distribute the outcome that is intended and promised: 'and those distributing as commanded'. Compare this to a delivery service. We order a certain item and for a while it seems nothing is happening while doubting if it will arrive at all. But in reality, the machine here as the delivery service is taking the necessary steps to get your order deliverd 'as promised'. We may think that nothing is happening and our dua's are not heard but in rea
