A man complained to Hasan Al-Basree about a drought,
and he said to him:
"Pray to Allah for forgiveness."
Another man complained to him of poverty
and he said to him:
"Pray to Allah to forgive you."
Another man said to him: "Pray to Allah to bless me with a child."
He said:
"Pray to Allah for forgiveness."
Another complained to him that his garden was dry.
He said to him:
"Pray to Allah for forgiveness."
We asked him about that and he said:
"This is not my personal opinion,
for Allaah says:-
Ask forgiveness from your Lord, verily, He is Oft Forgiving;
He will send rain to you in abundance.
And give you increase in wealth and children,
and bestow on you gardens
and bestow on you rivers.
