Al-Hijr 15:22

<h2>The Supplies for All Things are with Allah</h2><p>Allah tells us that He is the Owner of all things, and that everything is easy for Him. He has the supplies for all things with Him.</p><div class="arabic uthmani">وَمَا نُنَزِّلُهُ إِلاَّ بِقَدَرٍ مَّعْلُومٍ</div><p>(and We do not send it down but in a known measure.) meaning, as He wills and as He wants. Doing so out of His great wisdom and mercy towards His servants, in a way that He is under no obligation to do. But He has decreed mercy for Himself. Yazid bin Abi Ziyad reported from Abu Juhayfah that `Abdullah said: "No year has more rain than another, but Allah divides the rain between them as He wills, it rains here a year and there a year. Then he recited:</p><div class="arabic uthmani">وَإِن مِّن شَىْءٍ إِلاَّ عِندَنَا خَزَائِنُهُ</div><p>(And there is not a thing, but the supplies for it are with Us...) Reported by Ibn Jarir.</p><h2>Benefits of the Winds</h2><div class="arabic uthmani">وَأَرْسَلْنَا الرِّيَاحَ لَوَاقِحَ</div><p>(And We send the winds fertilizing.) i.e., fertilizing the clouds so that they give rain, and fertilizing the trees so that they open their leaves and blossoms. These winds are mentioned here in the plural form because they give results, unlike …

And We send the winds fertilising, and cause water to descend from the sky, and give it you to drink. It is not ye who are the holders of the store thereof.

And We send the fecundating winds, then cause the rain to descend from the sky, therewith providing you with water (in abundance), though ye are not the guardians of its stores.

And We send the winds fertilizing (to fill heavily the clouds with water), then caused the water (rain) to descend from the sky, and We gave it to you to drink, and it is not you who are the owners of its stores [i.e. to give water to whom you like or to withhold it from whom you like].

We send the fertilizing winds; and send down water from the sky, and give it to you to drink, and you are not the ones who store it.
