Three men came to Husain bin Ali (R.A); the first complained about a paucity of rain, and Husain answered, "Increase in seeking forgiveness from ALLAH." The second complained of being barren and not having children. Husain said, "Increase in seeking forgiveness from ALLAH." The third man complained about arid conditions and a lack of fertile soil, and Husai (R.A) said, "Increase in seeking forgiveness from ALLAH." Those seated with him said, "O son of the messenger of ALLAH (i.e., grandson): each one of these three had a different complain, yet you gave them the same answer." He asked him whether he had not read the Saying of ALLAH (the Exalted);
"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, andbestow on you gardens and bestow on your rivers." (Quran 71:11)
