Is the following narration reliable?
Sayyiduna ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Abbas (radiyallahu ‘anhuma) narrated that a man cursed the wind in the presence of Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam), so Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:
“Do not curse the wind, for it is merely doing as ordered, and whoever curses something undeservingly, then the curse returns upon him.”
Answer:
Imams Tirmidhi and Abu Dawud (rahimahumallah) have recorded this narration. Imam Ibn Hibban (rahimahullah) has declared the Hadith authentic.
(Sunan Tirmidhi, Hadith: 1978, Sunan Abi Dawud, Hadith: 4872, Sahih Ibn Hibban; Al Ihsan, Hadith: 5745)
