Hadith 31

it, the vapour comes from it, passing upon a lot of lands, and the spread-out cities, not being deficient from it by a dot, until it ends up to what cannot be counted from the Farsakhs, and it sends whatever is in it, drop after drop, and a torrent after torrent, consecutive upon its sending until it cleans the ponds and fills up the ravines. And the valleys swell up due to the torrents like the mountains filled by its torrents, deafening the ears by its loudness and its roar. The dead land is revived by it, and it becomes green after having been dusty, and productive and having been infertile, being painted with the colours of fresh vegetation, blossoms, adorned, for life of the people, and animals. So, when the cloud frees up its water, it takes off, and disperses and goes away where it cannot be seen nor known where it is hiding. The eye leads that to the heart and the heart recognises that, if that cloud had been without a Manager, and had existed, what we described, from itself, would not have carried even half of that from the weight of the water, and even if it was the one sending it to where it would be carried, a thousand Farsakhs or more, and it would send it to where it was nearer than that, and would not send a drop after drop, but it would send a sending which would demolish the buildings, and spoil the vegetation, and would not exceed to a city and leave another one besides it.

Some of what had been higher, would be lower, and raise some of what had been lower, and something would emerge and disappear and be delayed from its time, or preceded what is before it. The heart recognises by that, that the Manager of the things, whatever is hidden from these and apparent, He-azwj is Allah-azwj, the First, Creator of the sky and its Withholder, and Furnisher of the earth and is Spreader, and Maker of what is between that, from what we-asws counted, and other than that from what we-asws did not count. And similar to that, the eye witnesses the interchange of the night and the day, both constantly pursuing their courses, not wearing out during the length of their work, nor changing due to the frequency of their interchange, nor there being any reduction of their states – the day regarding its radiance and its illumination, and the night regarding its blackness and its darkness. One of them penetrates into the other until each one of them ends up a peak of its well-known limit, re
