Raging Winds and Rough Seas
June 21, 2024 § 1 Comment
“Baqiyyah ibn al-Walīd said, ‘We were at sea when the winds started to rage and the waves became fierce and the people started to cry and scream. So someone said to [either] Maʿyūf or his son, ‘That is [the great scholar] Ibrāhīm ibn Adham [over there], if only you’d go and ask him to make duʿā to Allaah.’ Ibrahīm was sleeping in a corner of the ship, his head wrapped in some garb. So he approached him and said, ‘Abū Isḥāq, don’t you see the state everyone’s in?’ So Ibrāhīm said, ‘O Allaah! You have shown us Your Strength now show us Your Mercy!’—and all became calm.’”
