What to do during earthquakes, tornados, floods etc ? ابن باز

فالواجب عند الزلازل وغيرها من الآيات والكسوف والرياح الشديدة والفياضانات البدار بالتوبة إلى الله سبحانه، والضراعة إليه وسؤاله العافية، والإكثار من ذكره واستغفاره كما قال صلى الله عليه وسلم عند الكسوف: ((فإذا رأيتم ذلك فافزعوا إلى ذكر الله ودعائه واستغفاره))[11]. ويستحب أيضاً رحمة الفقراء والمساكين والصدقة عليهم لقول النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم: ((ارحموا ترحموا))[12]، ((الراحمون يرحمهم الرحمن ارحموا من في الأرض يرحمكم من في السماء))[13]، وقوله صلى الله عليه وسلم: ((من لا يرحم لا يرحم))[14].

وروي عن عمر بن عبد لعزيز رحمه الله أنه كان يكتب إلى أمرائه عند وجود الزلزلة أن يتصدقوا.

ومن أسباب العافية والسلامة من كل سوء، مبادرة ولاة الأمور بالأخذ على أيدي السفهاء، وإلزامهم بالحق وتحكيم شرع الله فيهم والأمر بالمعروف والنهي عن المنكر كما قال عز وجل: وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ وَالْمُؤْمِنَاتُ بَعْضُهُمْ أَوْلِيَاءُ بَعْضٍ يَأْمُرُونَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَيَنْهَوْنَ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَيُقِيمُونَ الصَّلاةَ وَيُؤْتُونَ الزَّكَاةَ وَيُطِيعُونَ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ أُولَئِكَ سَيَرْحَمُهُمُ اللَّهُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ[15]، وقال عز وجل: وَلَيَنْصُرَنَّ اللَّهُ مَنْ يَنْصُرُهُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَقَوِيٌّ عَزِيزٌ * الَّذِينَ إِنْ مَكَّنَّاهُمْ فِي الْأَرْضِ أَقَامُوا الصَّلاةَ وَآتَوُا الزَّكَاةَ وَأَمَرُوا بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَنَهَوْا عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَلِلَّهِ عَاقِبَةُ الْأُمُورِ[16]، وقال سبحانه: وَمَنْ يَتَّقِ اللَّهَ يَجْعَلْ لَهُ مَخْرَجًا * وَيَرْزُقْهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لا يَحْتَسِبُ وَمَنْ يَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى اللَّهِ فَهُوَ حَسْبُهُ[17]... والآيات في هذا المعنى كثيرة، وقال صلى الله عليه وسلم: ((من كان في حاجة أخيه كان الله في حاجته))[18] متفق على صحته، وقال عليه الصلاة والسلام: ((من نفس عن مؤمن كربة من كرب الدنيا نفس الله عنه كربة من كرب يوم القيامة، ومن يسر على معسر يسر الله عليه في الدنيا والآخرة، ومن ستر مسلما ستره الله في الدنيا والآخرة، والله في عون العبد ما كان العبد في عون أخيه))[19] رواه مسلم في صحيحه. والأحاديث في هذا المعنى كثيرة.

والله المسئول أن يصلح أحوال المسلمين جميعاً، وأن يمنحهم الفقه في الدين وأن يمنحهم الاستقامة عليه، والتوبة إلى الله من جميع الذنوب، وأن يصلح ولاة أمر المسلمين جميعاً، وأن ينصر بهم الحق، وأن يخذل بهم الباطل، وأن يوفقهم لتحكيم شريعة الله في عباده، وأن يعيذهم وجميع المسلمين من مضلات الفتن، ونزغات الشيطان، إنه ولي ذلك والقادر عليه. وصلى الله وسلم على نبينا محمد وآله وصحبه، ومن تبعهم بإحسان إلى يوم الدين.

::: الدعاء عندما تعصف الريح :::

عن عائشة ـ رضي الله عنها ـ قالت :
كان النبي ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ إذا عصفت الريح قال: (( اللهم إني أسألك خيرها ، وخير ما فيها ، وخير ما أُرسلت به، وأعوذ بك من شرها ، وشر ما فيها ، وشر ما أُرسلت به ))
[ رواه مسلم: 2085 ]
He (Glorified be He) also says: Verily, We sent (Messengers) to many nations before you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم). And We seized them with extreme poverty (or loss in wealth) and loss in health (with calamities) so that they might humble themselves (believe with humility). When Our Torment reached them, why then did they not humble themselves (believe with humility)? But their hearts became hardened, and Shaitân (Satan) made fair-seeming to them that which they used to do.

(Part No. 2; Page No. 129)

In this glorious Ayah, Allah urges His Slaves and awakens in them the desire that, when they face adversities, such as illness, wounds, fighting, earthquakes, winds, storms, and other tribulations, they should humble themselves to Him in need of Him and ask for His Help. This is the meaning of Allah’s Saying: When Our Torment reached them, why then did they not humble themselves (believe with humility)? It asks why they (the preceding nations) did not turn to Allah humbly when they were inflicted with torment. Allah then tells that their hard-heartedness and the handiwork of Satan, making evil deeds pleasing to them, prevented them from Tawbah, supplication, and beseeching forgiveness. Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He) says: But their hearts became hardened, and Shaitân (Satan) made fair-seeming to them that which they used to do.
It is authentically reported that the Rightly-Guided Caliph, Amir Al-Mu’minin (Commander of the Believers), `Umar ibn `Abdul-`Aziz (may Allah be merciful to him), when there was an earthquake during his era, wrote to his agents in the different countries and ordered them to tell the Muslims to make Tawbah to Allah, humble themselves to Him, and seek His Forgiveness from their sins.
All you Muslims know the different types of Fitan (trials) and calamities that prevail in our time, among which is that the Kafirs have power over the Muslims in Afghanistan, the Philippines, India, Palestine, Lebanon, Ethiopia, and other countries. There have also been earthquakes in Yemen and many countries; devastating floods, and violent hurricanes that have destroyed property, trees, ships, and other things; avalanches that

(Part No. 2; Page No. 130)

have brought about incalculable harm; and famines and droughts in a multitude of countries. All this and much more are the different types of punishment that Allah afflicts upon His Servants due to their Kufr, misdeeds, deviation from His Obedience, zeal for this world and its transient pleasures, turning away from the Hereafter and failing to prepare for it; except those to whom Allah has shown His Mercy. There is no doubt that all such adversities obligate Allah’s Servants to hasten to make sincere Tawbah to Him (Glorified be He) from all that He prohibited them from, to return to His Obedience, to rule according to the Shari‘ah (Islamic law), to cooperate in righteousness and piety, and advise one another to adhere to the truth and have patience. The moment the Servants repent to their Lord, humble themselves to Him, and hasten to do what pleases Him: Help you one another in Al-Birr and At-Taqwâ (virtue, righteousness and piety) and enjoin one another to do good and forbid one another from evil, Allah will set their affairs aright and ward off the evil of their enemies, grant them authority in the land, give them victory over their enemies, bestow upon them His Blessings, and protect them from His Punishment. Allah, the Truest Speaker, says: ...and (as for) the believers, it was incumbent upon Us to help (them). He (Glorified and Exalted be He) also says: Invoke your Lord with humility and in secret. He likes not the aggressors. And do not do mischief on the earth, after it has been set in order, and invoke Him with fear and hope. Surely, Allâh’s Mercy is (ever) near unto the good-doers. And He (Glorified and Exalted be He) also says: And (commanding you): "Seek the forgiveness of your Lord, and turn to Him in repentance, that He may grant you good enjoyment, for a term appointed, and bestow His abounding Grace to every owner of grace (i.e. the one who helps and serves the needy and deserving, physically and with his wealth, and even with good words). But if you turn away, then I fear for you the torment of a Great Day (i.e. the Day of Resurrection). And:http://alifta.com/Fatawa/fatawaChapters.aspx?languagename=en&View=Page&PageID=104&PageNo=1&BookID=14&TopFatawa=true
