Asking help -Quran and hadith

Once during the time of the holy Prophet (saws) famine gripped Medina. The Prophet (saws) was delivering the Friday sermon to us that a person stood up and said, ‘O Messenger of Allāh, the horses and the goats have died. So pray to Allāh that He may send us rain.’ The holy Prophet(saws) raised his holy hands and prayed. Anas relates that (at that time) the sky was as (transparent as) cutglass. (But on account of the Prophet’s prayer,) the breeze blew instantly and the clouds came over. Then they grew quite dense and then the sky opened its mouth wide (that is, it started raining in torrents). We came out from there and (drenched in rain and) almost drowning in water, we reached our homes. The rain did not stop till the next Friday. The same day the same person or someone else stood up and said, ‘O Messenger of Allāh, the houses have collapsed, so pray to Allāh that this may stop.’ He smiled and then prayed (to Allāh) that rain may fall around us, and not on us. So I saw that the clouds had rolled away from Medina (and Medina appeared) as if it was crowned by the sky.

In another tradition, Anas relates that Allāh shows to the people the blessing of His Prophet (saws) and the acceptance of his supplications.(bukhari,muslim)

Abdullāh bin Mas‘ūd says that the holy Prophet (saws) cried so bitterly over the martyrdom of his uncle Hamzah in the battle of Uhud as he had never cried before. He says that he placed his coffin in the direction of qiblah and burst into tears until he started hiccupping. Then he addressed Hamzah and said:O Hamzah! O the uncle of the Messenger of Allāh! O Allāh’s lion! O lion of the Messenger of Allāh! O Hamzah! O doer of good deeds! O remover of troubles! O protector of the radiant face of the Messenger of Allāh!…(Qastallānī related it in al-Mawāhib-ul-laduniyyah (2:104); and Zurqānī in his Commentary (4:470)).

‘Uthmān bin Hunayf replied:By God! I did not talk to him, but once I was in the company of the Messenger of Allāh (saws) that a blind man came over to see him and complained to him about the loss of his eyesight. The Prophet (saws) asked him to be patient, but he said: ‘O Messenger of Allāh! I don’t have any guide and I am in great trouble.’ The Prophet(saws) said: ‘fetch an earthen pot and perform the ablution, then offer two cycles of prayer and implore Allāh with these praying words.’ Then (‘Uthmān) bin Hunayf said: ‘By God! We had neither gone out far away from the meeting nor had the conversation among us stretched out that the man came to us as if he had never been blind.’ Tabarānī in al-Mu‘jam-ul-kabīr (9:31#8311)

It is attributed to Dāwūd bin Abī Sālih. He says: ‘one day Marwān came and he saw that a man was lying down with his mouth turned close to the Prophet’s grave. Then he (Marwān) said to him, “Do you know what are you doing?” When he moved towards him, he saw that it was Abū Ayyūb al-Ansārī. (In reply) he said, “Yes, (I know) I have come to the Messenger of Allāh(saws) and not to a stone. I have heard it from the Messenger of God (saws) not to cry over religion when its guardian is competent. Yes, shed tears over religion when its guardian is incompetent.’ Hākim, al-Mustadrak (4:515);

On the Day of Judgement the Holy Prophet (saws) will act as a means of forgiveness for the believers. The Qur’ān states:O our Lord! Bless us with all that you have promised us through your messengers and do not humiliate us on the Day of Judgement. Surely You do not go back on Your Word.3/194
