  Cloud on Bani ISrail

When Bani Israil was wandering in desert then Allah blessed them with Mann and salwa and cloud. 
Allah mentions in Al-baqra verse No.57 That the white clouds that provided shade for the Children of Israel, protecting them from the sun’s heat during their years of wandering. This happened when they were in the desert and the clouds shielded them from the sun.These clouds were cooler and better than the type we know. 

 What is Al-Manna 

The manna, which was whiter than milk and sweeter than honey, used to rain down on the Children of Israel, just as the snow falls, from dawn until sunrise. One of them would collect for that particular day, for if it remained more than that, it would spoil.
 On Friday, one would collect enough for the sixth and the seventh day, which was the Sabbath during which one would not leave home to seek his livelihood. All this occurred in the wilderness.
 The type of manna that we know provides sufficient food , because it is nutritious and sweet. When it is mixed with water, it becomes a sweet drink. 
Manna also changes composition when mixed with other types of food. 

 Hadith about Manna 

Holy Prorhet(PBUH) said “Kam'ah (truffles) is a type of manna, and its liquid is a remedy for the eyes.”

 Imam Ahmad

Hadith #2 about Manna

 Messenger of Allah(PBUH) said, “The `Ajwah (pressed, dried date) is from Paradise and it cures poison, Al-Kam'ah (truffles) is a form of manna, and its liquid heals the eye.'' 

 At-Tirmidhi 

What is Salwa? 

The Salwa is a bird that looks like the quail. It is a bird in Paradise about the size of a sparrow. During that time, an Israelite could catch as many quails as was sufficient for that particular day, otherwise the meat would spoil.
 On the sixth day, he would collect what is enough for the sixth and the seventh day. The Sabbath, during which one was not allowed to depart his home to seek anything.
