Stopping the rain

Wed November 16, 2011 by Kunal Bansal

There is the story of one Rao Bahadur Moreshwar Fradhan who had come to Shirdi to take Sai Baba's darshan along with his wife. As the couple were about to leave, it began to rain heavily. Thunder and lightning rent the air. As the Pradhan couple looked round in dismay, Sai Baba prayed. 'Oh Allah!' he intoned, 'let the rains cease. My children are going home. Let them go peacefully!' The storm thereupon ceased, the downpour reduced to slight drizzle and the Pradhans were able to reach their destination safely.
