His saying: ﴾and the clouds controlled between the heaven and earth﴿ [2: 164]
🍃…. Mu‘ādh bin ‘Abdullah bin Habīb al Juhanī said: I saw ‘Abdullah bin ‘Abbās pass by Tabī’ the son of Ka‘b’s wife, so he said salām to him, and Ibn ‘Abbās asked him: “Have you heard Ka‘b saying anything regarding the clouds?”He said: “Yes. I heard him saying: Indeed clouds are the sieves of rain. If it weren’t for the clouds when water descended from the sky, it would have ruined everything it fell upon.”He said: “Have you heard Ka‘b saying regarding the earth: One year plants grow and the next year different ones?” He said: “Yes, I’ve heard him saying: Indeed seeds descend from the sky.”Ibn ‘Abbās said: “I’ve heard that from Ka‘b, saying that.”
