What is the cause of droughts?

Answer

Droughts are a manifestation of Allah's Wrath and Punishment. The current mini-drought in some parts of South Africa is a sign of impending greater Punishment. It is not really a punishment, hence Allah Ta'ala has sent it in a mild form. The cause of Divine Wrath is sin and transgression, especially the fisq and fujoor of Muslims. Muslims have transgressed all bounds in the perpetration of gross and flagrant immorality, injustice, exploitation, and every other sin imaginable under the sun.

The public displays of flagrant immorality by Muslim women, and their participation in functions and gatherings of fisq, fujoor and kufr are absolutely appalling. Hitherto, Allah Ta'ala has shown His Mercy by withholding such terrible punishment which effaces and eliminates a community.

The active connivance for fisq and fujoor of the evil television and radio molvis and sheikhs, and the horrible silence of such ulama who believe themselves to be sincere and pious are prime factors for the invitation of Allah's Punishment.
