Do you not see that Allah gently drives the clouds, then joins them together, piling them up into masses, from which you see raindrops come forth? And He sends down from the sky mountains ˹of clouds˺ loaded with hail, pouring it on whoever He wills and averting it from whoever He wills. The flash of the clouds’ lightning nearly takes away eyesight. Allah alternates the day and night. Surely in this is a lesson for people of insight. Quran 24:43~44 [Surah an-Nur (The Light) ]

أَلَمۡ تَرَ أَنَّ ٱللَّهَ یُزۡجِی سَحَابࣰا ثُمَّ یُؤَلِّفُ بَیۡنَهُۥ ثُمَّ یَجۡعَلُهُۥ رُكَامࣰا فَتَرَى ٱلۡوَدۡقَ یَخۡرُجُ مِنۡ خِلَـٰلِهِۦ وَیُنَزِّلُ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاۤءِ مِن جِبَالࣲ فِیهَا مِنۢ بَرَدࣲ فَیُصِیبُ بِهِۦ مَن یَشَاۤءُ وَیَصۡرِفُهُۥ عَن مَّن یَشَاۤءُۖ یَكَادُ سَنَا بَرۡقِهِۦ یَذۡهَبُ بِٱلۡأَبۡصَـٰرِ یُقَلِّبُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلَّیۡلَ وَٱلنَّهَارَۚ إِنَّ فِی ذَ ٰلِكَ لَعِبۡرَةࣰ لِّأُو۟لِی ٱلۡأَبۡصَـٰرِ

کیا تم نے نہیں دیکھا کہ خدا ہی بادلوں کو چلاتا ہے، اور ان کو آپس میں ملا دیتا ہے، پھر ان کو تہ بہ تہ کردیتا ہے، پھر تم دیکھتے ہو کہ بادل میں سے مینہ نکل (کر برس) رہا ہے اور آسمان میں جو (اولوں کے) پہاڑ ہیں، ان سے اولے نازل کرتا ہے تو جس پر چاہتا ہے اس کو برسا دیتا ہے اور جس سے چاہتا ہے ہٹا دیتا ہے۔ اور بادل میں جو بجلی ہوتی ہے اس کی چمک آنکھوں کو خیرہ کرکے بینائی کو اُچکے لئے جاتی ہے اور خدا ہی رات اور دن کو بدلتا رہتا ہے۔ اہل بصارت کے لئے اس میں بڑی عبرت ہے
