Hûd
IN THE NAME OF GOD, THE MOST GRACIOUS, THE DISPENSER OF GRACE[11:52]
"Hence, O my people, ask your Sustainer to forgive you your sins, and then turn towards Him in repentance – [whereupon] He will shower upon you heavenly blessings abundant, and will add strength to your strength: only do not turn away [from me] as people lost in sin!"

* v.52 : Lit., “He will let loose the sky over you with abundance.” The term samā’ – lit., “sky” – is often used in classical Arabic as a metonym for “rain,” and scarcity of rains is a characteristic of the desert country called Al-Ahqāf (“The Sand-Dunes”), the one-time habitat of the – since vanished – tribe of ‘ād. As would appear from 46:24, the time to which the above passage alludes was a period of severe drought, and so it is possible that the “abundant blessings” here denote rains.
