Salim
narrated that his father said:
“Sometimes I remember the words of
the poet when I was looking at the face of the Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ) on the pulpit. He did not come down until all the waterspouts
in Al-Madinah were filled with rain. And I remember what the poet
said:
‘He has a white complexion and rain is sought by virtue of his countenance,
He cares for the orphans, and protects the widows,
These are the words of Abu Talib.”
